I hear of people treating some stem splits and some vine trimmings with sulfur. What is the name of this product and where would I buy it?

It is an agricultural grade of sulfur and should be availabel at any garden supply center or hardware store. It will be sold under many names all are the same.

Could I grind up some Tiger 90 I sell, which is a 90% sulpher pellet? I could make a paste with water if that is the case.

Add in a 10% bleach solution & water with some chelated calcium and you'll have a fine spray tonic.

Wouldn't it be easier to buy the solution? I can't find any name brand stuff that contains sulpher.

Herbie,

I sell this stuff for around $10/gl in smaller quantities. A case is 2x2.5 gl or 5 gls.

It's not labeled as a fungicide but folks do use it as such.

I have found that when dealing with splits a dry powder (Benomyl, Captan or sulfur) has worked better here than flowables. Dry fungis combined with a fan is the only way I've been able to save the splits so far.

i used both, captan or sulfur. Made into a paste just a little thinner than cookie dough. worked great. Got em from our local co-op store. Also saw it at tractor supply.
The sulfur brand was bonnies. But any would do.
