I've been trying to find Myco Grow locally. Not happening since I just found out they have no national distributors

A good company and have heard only but good things about their products. I picked up some Plant Success Granular with the myco's and ferts at 3-1-2 to try this year. Will still use MycoGrow Soluable for my plant dip but will sprinkle the plant success in the planting holes. Ami

it's kinda to useless it if you water your plants with municipal water that contain chlorine/fluoride. The chlorine/fluoride will kill most if not all the mycorrhizae. Last edited by tqn626; January 10, 2013 at 02:49 PM. |

Also, I saw that OZBO is offerring 4.95 flat rate shipping again. If you need your ferts for the spring, it's a cheap way to get 50-100lbs shipped quickly. |

I live in Los Angeles area which has heavily treated water. I guess you're right, depends on your area. |

The Chlorine levels in muni water is there to kill bacteria and other life that may be pathogenic to us but it also kills the good guys. Chlorine is easy to get rid of since its volatile, just let the water sit for a few hours and it will out gas from the water. Boiling the water, aerating the
water or putting it in bright sunlight will make the Chlorine go away faster. If your water is treated with Chloramine, then the above solutions for Chlorine won't work. Adding a little bit of citric acid, ascorbic acid or humic acid will tie up the Chloramine as well as Chlorine. Reducing sugars in molasses will tie up Chlorine,but I'm not sure about Chloramine. |
