The chemical composition is calcium polysulfide. It might be sold as some kind of generic dormant spray. Check the ingredients. Here is the data sheet on Ortho's version. I think they may have stopped actively marketing theirs a couple years ago. Probably so they can sell more of their proprietary nasty chemical concoctions. http://www.ortho.com/content/produc...sds/dormant.cfm Regards, Matt __________________ Want to be a seller on bonsaiAUCTIONS?

Harry Tomlinson does mail order, he's near Nottingham - Greenwood Bonsai 0115 9205757, and Peter Snart would probably send you some if you call him - Willowbog Bonsai near Hexham 01434 681217 Much easier than making it!

That would be too dangerous, and you would need a lot of limes. __________________ Want to be a seller on bonsaiAUCTIONS?

I bought a halfgallon of the stuff and I only use it for preserving wood with a small paintbrush. It's still about half full. __________________ GaryS
