I have access to Nova,Bravo, Daconil,Sovergein, and compass.

Just wondering if this would be a good program to combat powdery mildew. What kind of schedule would you recommend and the intervals in between spraying. Thank you for your help.

Bravo alone
Bravo + Compass
Bravo + Nova
Bravo + Sovran
Bravo + Nova
Bravo + Compass
Bravo + Nova
Bravo + Sovran
etc

I'd start at the first sign of PM pressure. Airborne spore counts are tracked in CA. Start spraying as soon as NY has acknowledged detection or 2 weeks before you need to.

Follow this rotation every week at lowest rates.

Never follow a Group 7 or 11 fungicide with another 7-11.

Always combine at least a small amount of Chlorothalonil (Bravo) with the strobis.

If Powdery Mildew does still appear, switch over to just Bravo + Nova exclusively since the strobis will then be useless.

Thanks Steve,

Were would Daconil fit into this schedule.

bravo and daconil both have the same active ingredient: chlorothalonil.
