Henry,
I watched the video link you posted on Anti-Transpirants.

-----------------------------------------------------------
I'm willing to experiment on a container rose that is known to be blackspot prone.
But, I need alittle help from you. Which anti-transpirant should I use? Where's the best place to purchase it? I need to know the proper mixture for the product.
I did find a article that says this about Cloud Cover.
http://www.recyclenow.org/less-toxic/Roses.PDF
" ¥ Antitranspirants such as Cloud
Cover¨ or Wilt Pruf¨ and horticultural
oil (Sunspray Ultrafine¨) have been
observed to provide roses with protection
from fungal diseases. They create
a thin coating that can prevent spores
from fungal diseases from invading the
leaves. Treatment is begun when new
leaves appear in spring and must be
repeated whenever you see new
growth. Cloud Cover¨ in its ready-touse
form is too strong for roses. The
concentrate can be mixed 1 part Cloud
Cover¨ to 12 parts water to prevent
burning. Use a 1% solution of horticultural
oil and water (about 3 tablespoons
of oil in 1 gallon of water)."
