We were late with one of our Eagle sprays & it's started here too. We got another application on last night just hours before torrential rains.

The rest of this week we'll add Milk (at 10% solution) &/or Stylet Oil which makes the leaves LOOK clean while it kills spores. Having them look nice will make us feel better. LOL

Steve,
I have eagle 20, manicure, and compass. How should I use these this time of year. Do I need to add anything else. I am been rotating the manicure and eagle 20 so far.

Maybe put some copper, and daconil in the rotation with the myclobutinol... Seems to have really put the brakes on my PM.

Cap,
I do not know about the Eagle but as Tremor say's the
milk solution works well. I also add a teaspoon of
Spraytech oil....LB

Doug,

Don't use the Compass if PM is already active as it can lead to resistance issues.

Like LB said, a highly refined spray oil will KILL PM though it doesn't have good residual so it is best used as a companion.

I've had good luck with a combo of Daconil and Serenade.
Both are fairly inexpensive at Home Depot.
