Begin spraying at the start of the blossom period. Repeat at 3 to 4-day intervals during bloom and at 5 to 7 days intervals after bloom if weather favors disease spread.

  • PHILODENDRON: To control Bacterial Stem Rot, remove all decayed leaves and spray with a solution of 2 level tablespoons of Fertilome FIRE BLIGHT SPRAY in 2½ gallons of water (200 ppm concentration) as preventative or at first sign of water soaked leaves. Repeat at 4 to 5-day intervals.

    Tremendous

    By Gary on 07/03/2020

    After some research saw what the problem with the trees was and it was a bacterial problem. 1 tablespoon of this stuff did the trick. Only one application and I'll do it again in the fall

    Right product, right amount, right price

    By Karen on 04/03/2022

    I have fruit trees that suffer Fire Blight if I don't stay on top of spraying. I was happy to find this product in a reasonable sized container. I had been finding only large bags, which cost more and expired before I could use most of it. This is just right.
