hau Mary, RKnematodes can be controlled by introducing arbuscular mycorrhizae to your plant
roots. the arbuscular mycorrhizae will capture and devour the RKN.
In case you want to know, I like the
Fungi Perfecti Myco Grow, one packet will make 10-12 gallons of mycorrhizal soak (I use a tea
spoon per gallon of
water and add 1 tablespoon of molasses or
honey and let it sit for two days before using).
To install just poke some holes from half way from trunk and drip line then water with the solution, you want to get all the way down to the
root zone (18" deep).
For vegetables you can purchase the specific packet or simply use the maroon colored one (the only one I buy).
Here's what you get in the maroon colored one ounce packet (around 8 dollars):
Endomycorrhizal fungi
Glomus intraradices, Glomus mosseae, Glomus aggregatum, Glomus etunicatum, Glomus deserticola, Glomus monosporum, Glomus clarum, Paraglomus brasilianum, Gigaspora margarita
Ectomycorrhizal fungi
Rhizopogon villosulus, Rhizopogon luteolus, Rhizopogon amylopogon, Rhizopogon fulvigleba, Pisolithus tinctorius, Suillus granulatus, Laccaria bicolor, Laccaria laccata, Scleroderma cepa, Scleroderma citrinum
Disease Suppression Organisms
Trichoderma koningii, Trichoderma harzianum
Beneficial Bacteria
Bacillus licheniformis, Bacillus azotoformans, Bacillus megaterium, Bacillus coagulans, Bacillus pumilus, Bacillus thuringiensis, Paenibacillus polymyxa, Paenibacillus durum,
Azobacter chroococcum, Pseudomonas aureofaciens, Pseudomonas fluorescens, Saccharomyces cerevisiae
This will supercharge your soil and start getting those RKN under control.
