Do you plan on using these as a foliar spray or soil drench? Along with Actinovate? The BioAtlantis product mentions protection against nematodes which are a problem in my garden. It sounds as though BioAtlantis works by stimulating other microbes to do the work of protecting the roots rather than the mechanisms for control in Actinovate, in which the actual organisms in Actinovate are what protect the roots?

I think actinovate used as a soil drench really helped last year, when I pulled my in-ground plants the roots had some nematode damage but I suspect the nematodes were kept at bay long enough to produce a good harvest. Maybe these products could be used along with the Actinovate for additional rather than redundant nematode protection.
