This is just a note regarding the health question...I am a safety
officer for a greenhouse range of 33 houses in Coburg, OR. Anytime you
get chems or pesticides, request the MSDS sheet associated w/ that
product...this will tell you what if any health precautions should be
taken...by law the supplier has to give it to you. If you have employees
or even volunteers, you have to have this info sheet on file...in any
case the info is helpful to you, in the sense of health precautions.
Last year I got blasted by a pesticide in my own greenhouse thru my own
stupid fault...took one year to return my liver to health and blood test
every 30 days for awhile...its worth paying alittle attention to!
        "DEE"
P>S> even organic products have MSDS sheets...don't be fooled..Organic
sprays etc. can be damned mean and cause you severve health problems!!!
