I've posted a pic and have directly sent out questions to a couple growers on here but yet to hear anything back this soon so I thought if one of you would please check out the pic on the link here from me diary I would appreciate any feed back on how to mend the stem on the 1308 Barenie I've gottin to 233ott now. Hate to lose this kin. Never used sulfer before..could,nt pick it out of a line up or even know where to buy it if I need. I cleaned all the pruning sealer carefully off the damaged area (should,nt have put it on there in the first place..cntryboy corrected me on that because it needs air to it. Let me know what you all think I should do. Thanks

You can probably find garden sulfur powder at garden centers, hardware stores, feed stores. Its a powder and a garden fungicide. Good luck. Listen to cntryboy.
