My 2147.5 Sippel is beset with disease. I consulted Matt DeBacco’s foliar disease pictorial & I thought it might be Alternaria or Gummy Stem Blight. So I tried 6 different fungicides but no joy. Finally I consulted the Man himself. Matt was very kind & extremely helpful. He thinks it is most likely Angular Leaf Spot, which is a bacterial disease. He recommended Hydrogen Peroxide foliar followed by Copper.
Of course it is so hot right now I can’t do the Cu as there would be severe leaf burn. But the H2O2 is holding it at bay.
Thanks Matt!
