RE: disease prevention summary for hypochlorite


In my climate (Sacramento), prevention of bacterial soft rot involves
providing good drainage, housekeeping around the rhizomes, allowing the
center of the clump to dry out and avoidance of horse manure. I know there
is a boundary where aged horse manure becomes beneficial. I just don't know
how to define that boundary.

Treatment of bacterial rot is another major topic. There are in-situ and
ex-situ methods. Mike asked about this with his question about Listerine and
peroxide.
