Here at Aqueus we are constantly expanding our research and looking into the efficacy of Growthful on more and more crops – as part of this dedication to thorough research, Lance W. Beem with Beem Agro-Sciences Corporation, directed a trial to determine the effects of Growthful on the growth, development, and yields of Santa Claus melons.
