I havnt used fungicides this year yet and think its time to get a jump on things before it happens now.
How much per gallon to use for this and whats a easy way to figure this mix with water when they are talking per acre or mixing per 100 gallon. This is the only thing I can find on the lable,cant seem to find a exact mix per gallon. Also, should I wait till after fruit set to use this since they say it might slow down growth of a plant?

Anyone eles like Banner and what kind of results have you had with it?

Some folks are concerned about the possible growth regulating effects. I've seen this myself on Begonias & Impatiens at 4 oz/100 gal which supressed flower formation for 2-3 weeks.

That aside, I still use it.

2 oz per acre equals 1.3 mls per gallon per 1000 sq ft.
4 oz = 2.6 mls per gallon per 1000 sq ft.

Use a children's medicine measuring device.

If your schedule is hectic & both are due then tank mixing Banner & the common synthetic pyrethroids (like Talstar, Warrior, etc) is OK. Just watch the weather since the more "stuff" in a sprayer, the more valid the temperature concerns are.

I applied Bmax today and wouldn't you know it, I got rained on about 10 hours later.....

Should I reapply?

NO....Unless it was very humid, 10 hours is more than enough time to dry & absorb.
