OK, now I'm confused, I reread MycoGrow™ Soluble's contents on their website and it also contains Paenibacillus polymyxa.

I always use a Pea/Bean Innoculant when I plant legumes, Nitrogen fixing bacteria really help growth and yield. I have a new package of Guard-N that I will be inoculating my container Peas when I plant in a few weeks.

Raybo,
Did you check the roots for nodules when you pulled up those peas? That's the tell tale sign of of how healthy a population of Nitrogen fixing bacteria are present on legume roots.

It would be interesting to see the same trial done on non-leguminous plants.
