Actinovate in a Compost Tea?

[JayGG]

Ive been wanting to make a batch of compost tea lately and it just so happens that i've been having some slight issues with PM, would Actinovate some how interfere with the other beneficial bacteria in the compost tea?

& if not, why doesn't every one do this? more beneficial bacteria is always good, no?

I mix it in with my tea right before I water. It seems to work fine. I use it as a preventative and I dont get PM.

I dont know about actually brewing it though.

Whats PM?

this product seems a lot like White shark from Plant success, no? Probably doesn't need to be brewed just make sure you put extra molasses in your mix so they have something to eat.

PM=Powdery Mildew

Actinovate and Great White are different.

GW is a myco based product

Actinovate targets molds.

actinovate is a species of bacteria in the genus streptomyces.They are mostly soil born bacteria. They should grow fine in a compost tea.
