First: Thanks to the two ladies for answering my questions of about 10 days ago. I am updating my cheat sheet. Second: Have about 500 sq ft of pachysandra with approximately 1 in 100 leaves showing volutella blight. Am reading much conflicting information about what to use for control. Some say Daconil. Others say copper. Others say Daconil is a preventative and will not treat established fungus. The label suggests otherwise. Before I call a professional I would like to try myself. Can you recommend something? I prefer liquid concentrates but will consider anything. If you have something liquid, please advise mixture rate for a hand held 1 gallon pump up garden sprayer. Also, how long till the product is rain tight. I have a Solo hand crank spreader so granular product can be considered. Thank you.
Yes, Prime Source Chlorothalonil 82.5DF Select is labeled for Volutella Leaf Blight (Pachysandra). Per the product label you would apply at a rate of .125 oz per gallon to cover 1000 square feet. This product should be rainfast after about 6 hours.
