INOCULAID® (BENEFICIAL SOIL BACTERIA) PROTECTS PLANTS FROM HARMFUL FUNGI
Inoculaid (beneficial soil bacteria) not only reduces nitrogen fertilizer application by as much as 50%, it is also very effective against harmful fungi, nematodes and other pathogens. The month of May was the second wettest on record for Florida; and provided the perfect conditions for fungal diseases- heat and constant rain. For us, it was a perfect opportunity to put Inoculaid to the test. In April, over a period of several weeks, we seeded or transplanted hundreds of tomatoes, celery, several variety of peppers and basil plants to pots and left them to mother nature without any synthetic application of fungicides. The same for cucumbers and squash, which we seeded on bare ground. Instead, we applied Inoculaid twice during the plants’ growth stage. The results impressed us.The cucumbers, whose vines grew on bare ground, experience downy mildew but survived and produced unblemished fruits, without any spots. The only other plants with fungus growth were the spaghetti squash, which had some powdery mildew but also produced excellent fruits without any belly rot.We recently compared notes with many watermelon and cucumber growers; and unfortunately learned that they did not fare well against fungal diseases using synthetic fungicides.
