re natrasoap, I've heard of poor response from some users. It needs to
be blasted on so that all surfaces are contacted & numerous follow up
applications after every rain during humid weather. I wonder what the
effect on the soil is of all this surfactant runoff. There is an
interesting article in the October 25 issue 'Land', an avacado grower
from north coast (high humidity area) has switched over from copper,
fungicides & artificial fertilisers etc to using worm juice foliar
sprays with good results. 'Acres' magazine (monthly) is a regular source
of organic style information. With regards to credibility its a bit of a
minefield as there are all sorts of promoters promising the world (& more)
