Re: [MittleiderMethodGardening] What is Seed Inoculant
http://www.groworganic.com/media/pdfs/ise151-b.pdf
It is not a fungicide. The innoculant is supposed to help legumes (peas,
beans, vetch, etc...) fix nitrogen. I haven't used it myself, but have read
about it for years in many catalogs.... Maybe I should, my pea crops
haven't been that great...
