A thing to note here for all growers... when dealing with insecticide and fungicide, please be careful as it is poison. Use a rubber glove if possible. And after you are done with it, wash your hands properly.

Try other shops and see. Sometimes I see it at the hoem section under electrical stuff in supermarkets. Ask for Hydrometer.

« Reply #8 on May 2, 2008, 12:18am » so far i am been use powder type fungicide on my sarracenias and VFT's with no side effect. the powder is like yellowish colour. i think if it is in the right dosage, you can apply it to seedlings and seeds to prevent any mould or fungi when germinating seeds
