I found on the web.a Palm Tree Fertilizer,it says it will make your Palms grow super fast. Have any of you heard of this product or used it?The web site is www.maturepalmtree.com I wonder if its for real and is it healthy for Palms to grow this fast.If anyone has used this let me know if it really works?

It seems fishy to me. I mean noticable results in 3 days is pretty fast, plus the whole layout of the site looks more like a hoax. I wouldnt trust it, unless you can find someone other than "Bob Johnson" who has had sucess with it (Bob is a pretty common first name and Johnson is a pretty common last name and the fact that they mention his name so many times in the page really mkes me question the site even more).

They also dont seem to be giving much info about the product.

I dont think quick fixes are good in the long run anyway. Even if they is a real product you ahve to wonder what it does to the cold tolerance and the tolerance in general of the tree.

I agree with tropicalzone7. If it sounds too good to be true, it is. If you have good, well draining soil and use a reliable palm fertilizer like Carl Poole's, you will get good steady growth on your palms. There is not a 'super fast grow" out there --- any more for palms than for balding men.......

I thought the same thing,that its a scam because I would check this site and it would say half off the price if you buy before midnight on the date you check it.Then a month later I checked it again to see if it went up in price, and it would say if you buy before midnight its half off once again.I guess the old saying(if it sounds to good to be true,it usually is)Thanks guys.

Is this the same Bob from TV claiming that some miracle concoction has "doubled his size"? ;)

Seriously, from what I saw all you get for $30 is a "recipe". All you need to do to get this recipe is go to Home Depot and read the ingredients on a bag of palm/citrus mix.

I shouldn't say that,horse s#@^ works!

RE: Amazing Palm Tree Growth

LOL!!!! This is hilarious. It SCREAMS "Scam"!!!!

Good old "Bob Johnson", when I pull up this site, is just a mere couple miles away over in Arlington, VA! Good ole bob sure does get around doesn't he? LMAO!!!

Do all of your "bob johnsons" look like this: (and no I'm really NOT being dirty here... LOL!!!!)

LOL! Do they all say this:

"It's very impressive. It doubled my palm
tree size and value in no time.
You are a real genious! Thanks again,

-Bob Johnson, Arlington, VA"

Of course lets not forget to replace the city and state with the city and state that is nearest you. LOL!

This is too funny! What a joke. I don't think I would want ANYTHING from a "bob johnson" who gets around as much as this one does... HAHAHA! LMAO!!

This is just too easy to make jokes about! LOL!

It doesn't have the location when I look at it, just the name.

RE: Amazing Palm Tree Growth

I recently saw a story where people where milked out of their life saving - promised 100- 250% interest in off shore accounts. It was a scam.

If it sounds too good to be true from our fellow man, then don't believe the "Bob Johnson" story. He's suppose be the simple nice honest believable neighbor.

Don't loose your life saving on magic palm fertilizers!

Definately a life lesson with this, "always second guess", and "If it seems too good to be true, it probably is"
