Default Anybody Tried GreenCure fungicide?

One of the members here posted in my Tea Tree Oil thread that he uses GreenCure for his disease problems. I ordered some to try. Anyone have experience with using this?

It's my understanding that the bicarbonates (potassium or sodium) are "fairly" effective against tomato early blight and possibly other fungal diseases. I have used sodium bicarbonate (baking soda) formulations, but never with a control required for comparison.

The info from the manufacturer talks about how their product is superior to standard baking soda, etc. I am trying greencure now in my greenhouse, so I will be able to post my experience.

My main concern with using baking soda was the possibility of salt build up in the soil, but you wouldn't have that problem with potassium bicarbonate (GreenCure).

I'm always interested in organic methods that work so I'll be looking forward to your experience with GreenCure.
