Does anyone have any experience with Serenade, the new natural fungicide?
The active ingredient is Bacillus subtillis. It's supposed to eliminate many
of the common fungal diseases in both the vegetable garden & orchard. A 32
ounce bottle makes 32 gallons & costs $20., Worth it?
Many thanks,
Steve

It is biological and therefore approved by pranic gardeners. It is not
natural in the sense that it has to be cultured and processed. Here is
some research on the the use B. subtillis in tomatoes.

There are several formulations of B. subtillis on the market. Serenade

Thanks for the links! I'm going to try a bottle.

I've been prescribed sulphur powder by the organic nurseries to
eliminate fungal root rot. Water in well, wait two weeks, then introduce
a balanced soil flora.

It worked.
