So, Steve, I'm not getting at you personally, so please don't take this the wrong way. It's my understanding that you use BC with 500 in it and that you spray 500 and 508 all the time and yet you have this fungal problem.
What do you make of it? Is there something that you would do differently next year to stop the outbreak rather than treat it? I, too, got massive downy outbreaks after the torrential rains and cold days and nights. This on top of me thinking I could cure my 'rotting summer squash fruit' problems by applying more 508 in the fall and early spring. What say? Anyone?
