Oh, keep the label. You will need it for the instructions for orchids.

And now that Ray found the label you can print it out, take it to a farm store (i.e. Fleet Farm in the Midwest and look at the labels for milk house cleaning and other containers to find one that matches. Either full strength or 1/2 strength (which you could double I believe). The one labeled for milk house costs more than those labeled for other uses. The cost will pleasantly surprise you!

A quick google search turned up over 800 listings. here's one: http://www.physan.com/PAGES/Physan20_8oz_Label.pdf -- Ray Barkalow - First Rays Orchids - www.firstrays.com Plants, Supplies, Books, Artwork, and Lots of Free Info! .

What's the active ingredient in Physan anyway?
Physan 20 is a mixture of two quaternary ammonium compounds and an inert carrier: n-alkyl (60% C14, 30% C16, 5%C12, 5% C18) dimethyl benzyl ammonium chloride = 10% n-alkyl (68% C12, 32% C14) dimethyl ethylbenzyl ammonium chloride = 10% INERT INGREDIENTS = 80% |

I got tired of the generally high prices I was seeing for Physan 20, so am test marketing quart bottles for less than most places sell the 16-ouncers. I only have a limited number available for now, so we'll see how it goes.

Where do you order this? One place wanted $2 more than quart cost? Is this usual? for 6 plants I don't think a gallon is practical. |

We used to buy a substitute for Physan at a hardware store that had a large selection of items for horse owners. However the store closed and I've looked for the product at Agways without success. Anyone have a source other that mailorder. By the time you pay the shipping costs you might as well just buy Physan 20. |

I get mine from Orange County Farm Supply in the City of Orange.
If I recall the small size is $11 But I guess it depends where you grow? -- Cheers Wendy Remove PETERPAN for email reply TRAINMAN9 wrote: I got tired of the generally high prices I was seeing for Physan 20, so am We used to buy a substitute for Physan at a hardware store that had a large selection of items for horse owners.

I thought everyone used pool algacide. Why pay for Physan?

Same thing: Swimming Pool Algicide, as I recall. You need to calculate a
different dilution, which I definitely do not recall. Very cheap. Elinor |

IIRC pool algacide is 1/2 the strength of Physan, so if physan says use 1
tsp/gal you'd use 2 tsp/gal of pool algacide. BUT READ THE LABEL and verify this before you try it at home. K Barrett "ARIET B" wrote in message ... Same thing: Swimming Pool Algicide, as I recall. You need to calculate a different dilution, which I definitely do not recall. Very cheap. Elinor |
