Thanks for the kind words. It's because of true believers like yourself and the rest of the Tomatoville gang that have made Actinovate the preferred bio fungicide for the organic veggie gardener.

Thanks for the day-of reply Boom. I'm looking forward to trying to reproduce results like those Ray and Michael have achieved using bio-products like yours.

Ray, that's quite a wall of green you have there.

Boom

Just telling the truth. I have no connection to your business other than buying your products and using them. Keep up the good work, pls!

It is pretty widely distributed at Nursery centers, etc. You can always get it on Amazon.com as well. Keep in mind when comparing prices, it is sold in 2 package sizes. So be sure to do a thorough review of the package size vs. price that you are ordering on the Web.

Keith

Agree with Ray.

What I do is google when I am ready to buy to find the best price. Make sure that you are not buying out of date product. That happened to me once. Or try and find a local supplier that has a fair price.

I've been reading the various threads on Actinovate and have a question of Boomer.

You mentioned that SP and AG were really the same formula. I agree that they have the same ingredient. But there seems to be a dif in concentrations.

At the Natural Industries web site, the label for AG lists "not less than 1 x 10 (7)" organisms (I can't get this site to do superscript)

While the SP label says just "1x10".

I have 2 large greenhouses and plant out thousands of tomatoes every year. I ordered 1 of the 18 oz bags of AG.
