Just got the latest delivery and there's much less in the packet than usual.

Queried with my supplier and got the reply:

"
the inert carrier has been changed and not so much is needed it also
dissolves better and can be easier to administer
regards"

Anybody else had a similar experience?

First time I've used it so I can't say about the volume of carrier. It
does seem fairly user friendly tho. Put it on the spuds - we'll
probably need a second dose so they're going to be expensive spuds but
if it works that's much better than losing more than half to the
slugs.

Don't know about volume as last year I had a small box and this year a large
one. However, they don't seem to be quite as effective as last year - at
least that's the reason I'm giving for almost non-existent germination rates
in open soil (including sugarsnaps and mange tout which are normally a
certainy here) plus I can still see evidence of continued attack on runner
beans and climbing beans. Do you find that it's doing the same job for you
in this 'reduced' quantity of carrier?
