I've sprayed honor gaurd, nutri-cal,daconil and bifen plus the usual fish,seaweed.I have done this either before 8am or after 6pm in full shade.
I may have sprayed a 4-26-26 one time and magnesium once,in Matt's photos it somewhat like a to much nitrogen photo He has but I don't think that is it

I have similar spots on my leaves and from what I see on mine it may be spots from where the pm has died

Here is my email from Matt. He asked that I post it Hi Henry- Looks like you have Downy Mildew to me. I can say that it is not a deficiency of any nutrient and it is also not mosaic. If others are wondering please let them know that it is downy mildew and not any deficiency as I do not like to see growers make an application of something that will not do them any good. Feel free to let them know I diagnosed it as downy mildew. Wish the news was better, but let me know if you have any other questions. -Matt At least it's not mosaic I haven't read much about downy so I'll be getting busy doing that ,I sprayed daconil last night

Thanks bait man...I did double up with another copper fungicide when I noticed it in case it was downy ...that's prolly what slowed it down...I seem to have it in check now..good luck... And thanks for the diagnosis Matt!!...whew!!.. No mosaic!
