    Q
    How much Hi-Yield Improved Lime Sulfur Spray would I need to buy to treat five large apple trees with scab?

Spray to cover foliage until wet. Without actually knowing how big the trees are and how big the crowns are we really don't have a way to tell you exactly how much product you would need. To be safe you may want to purchase at least two bottles.

    Q
    What would be an alternative to Hi-Yield Improved Lime Sulfur Spray since this is discontinued?
    A

    Without knowing what plant you are planning to spray over, and what disease or pest you are treating for, it would be hard to give an exact best recommendation for a replacement of the Hi Yield Improved Lime Sulfur Spray.

    Two products you could consider and review the labels of that may work for your needs would be Eagle 20 EW Fungicide and Fertilome Triple Action.
