Has anyone used Actinovate for fusarium wilt in tomatoes?

I admit to needing to Google Actinovate. Here is one discussion you might find interesting. I'm still reading through it.

Thanks, I have verticillium or fusarium wilt in my organic raised beds. Dr. Mike in You Bet Your Garden said this would develop in any garden wherever tomatoes were not rotated over several years. So true! I had hoped to beat it with organic methods, but no dice. The solution is said to be solarization for a season, which puts a garden bed out of production. I'm hoping Actinovate will help me get a crop out of the remaining beds until I solarize them next year.

I too have raised beds I would like to get another year of production out of before letting them sit. I have tried an organic product called 'root shield' with limited success last year.

I really have concluded there is no magic answer except to rotate crops but when that is not possible these products may help a little.
