What does Companion do?

[FLaCo]

I am interested in doing a mix of worm tea/companion/ and key plex but was wondering if I could mix them?


I think Jerry mixes them, but I am not 100% sure what companion does on its own.

Companion is Bracillus bacteria. It is a soil fungicide. Here is the spec sheet on the product.

OVE adds Bracillus to their worm feed and it is processed by the worms. It is interesting that adding the bracillus to the worm bins did not work.

So it is certainly safe to mix the two. I use companion as a method to increase the quantity of Bracillus in the solution. I have a cost factor in how much time I can devote to each plant so application is normally by sprayer. I mix worm tea, companion and the rooting hormones Essentials together and spray every two weeks.

The manufacture of Companion and Essentials says they can be mixed and since Bracillus is in worm tea already, I feel safe adding more.

Thank you for that reply Jerry.

Where can you purchase Companion?

Jerry, do you know of any place that may sell Companion for a non-wholesale market?

Is this the 'real' companion product? I don't want to get a fake...(fourth Picture/product from the top) Garden Spout - Beneficial Bacteria
