I have been researching methods to eliminate some of my plant disease problems, and have found information on a product called Oxidate. The manufacturer claims that it will cure lots of problems, but it is a little expensive. They recommend using it as both a soil drench and a folliar application. I was just wondering if anyone has used it and what your results have been. Thanks. Mark

That is what I'm talking about, Tremor. It is listed as hydrogen dioxide. Similar to peroxide but with some additives. I saw it mentioned in one of Doc Gipe's posts and it looked like something I might want to try, if it really works.

So Oxidate is the same active ingredient as ZeroTol. It's a no-residual material that kills pathogens on contact only. Hydrogen Dioxide has it's uses but watch using it in warm weather.
