Hello All,
I suppose this is a specific question for Elaine, but if anyone has any thoughts or experience with Ampelomyces quisqualis, the parasite fungi that attacks powdery mildew, let me know. The question: would adding AQ be detrimental to any of the beneficial in my CT? I read that it has a pretty specific host range to the genera, Erysiphales but I don't know enough about the beneficials to know if there are any in that genera. Is AQ common enough that a good diverse compost would already have some of these for a foliar tea brew? I know that on this list we previously talked about Bacillus subtilis and it was the case that it was would already be in good compost.
Thanks,
Dan
