When should you use copper fungicide?
- Prevention is key: Apply copper fungicide early in the season, ideally before diseases appear, such as during bud break or after pruning.
- Target critical times: Use it in late autumn or early spring to protect against fungal spores overwintering on your plants.
How to apply copper fungicide properly?
- Dilute correctly: Follow the instructions on the label to prepare the solution, as overuse can harm plants.
- Apply evenly: Spray all parts of the plant, including stems, leaves, and branches, ensuring thorough coverage.
- Timing matters: Avoid applying during rain or intense sunlight to ensure effectiveness and minimize damage.
- Use it safely: Copper fungicides are toxic in excess, so handle them carefully and avoid overusing them on edible plants close to harvest.
