In a couple of replies one said to use mycore and another said to use superphosphate. When I go looking to buy this stuff is there a specific brand to ask for? I just called a couple of greenhouses in my area and they both had no idea what I was talking about. Can this stuff be purchased at Lowes or Home Depot?

Thanks, Mark G.

You dont want to use these 2 toghether... The salts from the Phos. fert. is harmful to the fungus. See now U are really confused!! Lowes has all kinds of choices for chemical fertilizers... Are your plants in full sun? What is your pH?

I realize I need to use just one. All I need is a specific brand name. 4 plants in full sun...2 are lagging and 2 are growing normal.

Don't add Phosphorus unless you know that the soil is deficient. As indicated, too much P is toxic to mycorrhyzae.

I don't think you'll find what you need at a big-box. You need a specialty supplier.
