I saw some yates lime sulfur today but I had no idea if it was the stuff you guys use for jins? It said it's purpose was for fungicide...does this still work? __________________ "And the LORD God made all kinds of trees grow out of the ground-trees that were pleasing to the eye and good for food." - Genesis 2:9 Last edited by Greggles : 26-Feb-2004 at 03:45 AM.

It's sold for a variety of uses including fungicide and insecticide. Check the ingredients listing. The actual concentration of the active ingredient varies widely with application. http://www.bestsulfurproducts.com/limesulfur.htm http://www.encyclopedia.com/html/l1/limesulf.asp http://www.alanwood.net/pesticides/...olysulfide.html __________________ Want to be a seller on bonsaiAUCTIONS?
