    I posted an article on trichoderma that explains alittle bit about it. I have be using it with other beneficial bacteria products and I can say how well it works.... especially on seedling. I encourage others to at least try it and see how it works. You can get an all trichoderma product in Rootshield or Plantshield. Or you can also buy a beneficial bacteria product like Subculture B(what I use) that has trichoderma in it.

    I'll second that. I've been using RootShield for several months when I deflask seedlings and it dramatically reduces my losses. I now use it on remounted and repotted plants as well.

    You should add it into your watering program for all your plants!

    I have another similar product with more than the T harzianum that I've used once on the whole collection as a test. Now I've misplaced it so have to search.
