The "straw" in the photo is my winter cover crop of ryegrass. The other pics are of my fall tomato transplants, a little over a week in. The white masses showed up within several weeks of applying actinovate.

Oh, and I didn't use any fungicides (other than my brews) on my roses this year.. but that's not necessarily unusual. I pull them out at the end of June before early blight can really become a problem.

My setup is super sophisticated and exciting, as you can see
Love the hi-tech lab equipment, the floral pattern is very stylish.
I've seen the white speckling of Streptomyces before, but that growth is intense.
