Bill, Keep in mind that these mycorrhizal fungi might already be in your soil naturally. This might explain there being no difference between the innoculated and uninnoculated. In fact, one uses the mychor. fungi AND keeps the beds constantly planted, one might not ever need to reinnoculate the area. --E *************************************************************************** To unsubscribe, send to: listserv@umslvma.umsl.edu the body message: unsubscribe sqft See http://www.umsl.edu/~silvest/garden/sqft.html for archive, FAQ and more.
