I add two teaspoons of the Actinovate powder to a two gallon watering can and fill the can with the water running hard in order to mix it well. I place the plant in a hole and fill the hole with the Actinovate/water mixture. Then I back fill the hole with the soil I took out and douse it again with the mixture making sure the plant is also covered with it. I planted forty tomato plants and I still have four to six teaspoons of the product left. I will probably use it in a couple of weeks to treat a few plants that don't look as well as the other plants. If you have kept Actinovate on hand for a year, it probably isn't any good. I'm sure it has passed it's expiration date and the organisms are dead.
