    Q
    Will Captan work in getting rid of Phytophthora blight on Peoneys
    A
    Bonide Captin Fungicide is not labeled for Phytophthora blight so we would not recommend it for this use.  Bonide Mancozeb Flowable with Zinc Concentrate seems to be a product that others have had success with but this blight is normally treated non-chemically by avoiding planting in wet or poorly drained areas. Remove and destroy infected plants.
