How to decide which system to use?
- What are the skin care circumstances and do I need all the steps or only parts
- Incidents of skin irritation, eczema and dermatitis in the plant will indicate requirements
- What soil and conditions are in the plant
- Choose the product in each of the categories above that best fit the amount and type of soil
- D’limonene cleaners may be a natural solvent but they are a skin irritant
- Read the MSDS Section V Health Hazards reads… “May be irritating to skin and eyes. Skin contact may cause slight redness. Contains a potential skin sensitizer.” The MSDS goes on to instruct if there is contact with the skin, “wash affected area with copious amounts of soap and water.”
