Default Question about wood chips
On 11/03/2020 11:51, wrote:
I'm wondering whether it's OK to cover the ground of a large fruit cage
with wood chips that are partly from tanalised wood. A lot of googling
hasn't produced a clear answer, mainly because older discussions date
from when tanalisation used arsenic as one of the components.
What's the opinion of those here?
A bit more info: the tanalising is Lonza Tanalith.
Active ingredients: 16.1% w/v (12.4% w/w) copper (Cu) present as a
cupric carbonate ethanolamine complex and 0.64% w/v (0.50% w/w)
tebuconazole.
pH 9.5 (5% w/v product solution)
