Has anyone ever tried it as a systemic in the water?

I have never heard of cinnamon being used as a systemic. I don't think it can be absorbed that way. Phyton 27 is a good systemic fungicide (but pricey). Cinnamon should be directly applied to the problem area for best results.

Yeah, I would think it would have to dissolve to work systemically??
Also, I have often heard that it isn't great for roots (it's a drying agent as well as a anti-bacterial/anti-fungicide.)

Jacob, Cinnamon is a terrific topcial treatment for applying to a severed/cut leaf, in other words a wound.. Do not antciipate a systemic effect. If it's only effective for severed leaves/roots,...mouthwash is also wonderfully effective. Mike-RI

Thanks folks
Just thought I'd ask
I don't like using physan since it is a growth inhibitor
I have used bemynol (sp) in the past with some success
Maybe I'll try that again
