    @garrythegardener ... either I'm confused or you are ... the photograph you've posted shows what looks like good old Growmore-type general garden fertiliser being scattered around the plant on the surface of the soil ... micorrhyzal powder should be applied to the rootball before planting ... just as you have described.  Can you not find a photograph showing this?  What you're showing is very misleading. 
    or just cut to the chase and post your advert? o:)

    Oh is this an advert?
    I read an article here in France that said just what @Hostafan1 has said. It said there is no point using it. I bought some in the UK but I didn't notice the difference.

    @garrythegardener is the same person who was posting under this name

    the very company who manufactures the product he's plugging.  He must think we're total idiots ........ 

    I've flagged his advert on his other thread.

    That explains an old thread being resurrected for no obvious reason. Thought l'd lost the plot (l probably have tbh).

    I want to read his excuse for posting a totally misleading photograph ... we know he's a spammer ... but he's not even any good at spamming ... maybe we should contact the firm and tell them how rubbish @garrythegardener is 🤣  I wonder how much he gets paid 😱😂

    Looks like a cut and paste job anyway  :/

    Many moons ago I worked in marketing (in the Arts, but it's all marketing).  @Garrythegardener should be ashamed of such sloppy work.

    I'm looking for "peer assessed , double blind trials" but have been unable to find any.

    Even the RHS says that good fertilizer might well give the same results.

    @garrythegardener, can you provide this evidence?

    Doesn't your company sell the stuff @garrythegardener?
    It would be beneficial if you understand how it works so that you can inform people when they ask. Your response to @Hostafan1 demonstrates that you don't understand the product. 
    After all, you posted a photo earlier in the thread showing something completely different. That's misleading at best  :)
