Charles:

I seem to recall that you use live sphagnum for your cp's. Does this
pesticide seem to adversely effect it?

Hi Tom,
Good question...I don't recall ever noticing a problem with my Sphagnum Moss
after using Isotox. I don't recall the moss turning white or dying. The only
problem I had with live sphagnum is when I use fungicides and Physan (a
greenhouse disinfectant/algae killer). The moss will turn white, but will
eventually grow again.
With insecticide, I always use less then what is recommended. It kills just as
well and inside my greenhouse, the insecticide seems to last a lot longer. No
wind or rain to wash it away. Hope this helps.
Charles
