I don't , you need to be proactive instead of reactive, TKO works well every 10 to 14 days , once you have it you got it

If the leaf is decimated it comes off. It its touching other leaves it comes off. Most of the experienced growers aren't facing this question nowadays. Like Green Toe said, if you start your treatment before you see any PM show up, it usually stays at bay. Rotating multiple fungicides is recommended. Mine are Eagle, Daconil, Quentec and TKO. One a week throughout the season and you shouldn't see any significant PM Bob.

like others have said treat plant ahead of time! but if it has started ,I use immunox (home depot 12$), before dark use at 3/4 strength, spray all of plant, if it has taken hold to a degree then spray again in 6-7 days,
