iceberg's blackspot dilema

Posted by dregae 5b, indiana (My Page) on

I have a beautiful climbing iceberg that was exceptionally healthy until a butternut squash starting climbing on it last year, ever since then we can't seem to get rid of the blackspot. I am willing to go non organic to get this under control. Can anyone recommend a good product for me.

Thanks

Banner Maxx or Bayer's Advanced. It is often recommended to alternate products to avoid creating resistant strains. Check the rosemania site, they have some pages on recommended black spot spraying schedules.

Iceberg is a blackspot magnet. In my yard, I use the Bayer Advanced Disease control. If I spray regularly, it's fine. If not, it's on of the first to show blackspot. I also think mine has the Mosaic virus, but that only comes out in the cold weather.
