I used it in a space where I lost a plant last year. I grew a nice healthy plant in that same space this year with companion.

Thanks Brooks I paid all that money and never got a taste myself.

I did notice that when I caught the groundhog his coat was soft and shinny and no fleas.............

Companion is a bacteria, bacillius subtillis (I'm not sure of the spelling). In 2009 I used another product that had the same bacteria along with other beneficial bacteria and micorhizae. Espoma Starter Plus. I used it on 6 plants, 2 without it. I also used Aliette fungicide. The plants that received the Espoma did not show any signs of the root rot problem that has plagued me. And we had way too much water, including over 2' of flood water in August. On the 2 that didn't get the Espoma, one got the problem and the ohter one that was on a sandy spot did not get it. So I assume that it did help. Don Young told me that he used Companion and that it helps your other fungicides work even better. I will use that bacteria in one form or another next year.
