It's pricey, about $75 a pound. But its concentrated stuff, its basically 100% spores, they say to dilute it a lot. I use it at about 100 times the recommended dosage.

I have seen this reference to CFU (colony forming units) and found it suspicious. The thing is you could take pure spores and dilute it with something inert to make it weigh more. So the fact that someone is making some claim about some concentration of there stuff makes me wounder just how much its cut.
