In-Depth Information
for others, such as azaleas, a low-lime bordeaux is
used. Once the two solutions have been mixed, the
preparation must be used immediately. Fresh lime
is essential, not some left over from a previous
season. Somewhat less effective than homemade
bordeaux but easier for the home gardener are the
various powders and pastes available under trade
names; to these add only water at the time of use.
Chloranil
Foliar fungicide and seed treatment.
Chloroneb
Terraneb, N-Flow D, Proturf
Fungicide.
Bupirimate
Chloropicrin
Nimrod
Systemic fungicide.
Chloro-O-Pic
Soil fumigant.
Burgundy Mix
Chlorothalonil
A soda bordeaux formerly used, prepared with
washing soda instead of lime.
Bravo, Bravo Ultrex, Bravo Weatherstik
Fungicide.
Burkholderia cepacia
Copper Acetate
Fungicide, nematicide.
First developed in 1889; became the first factory
made basic copper fungicide.
Captan
Captan 30 DD, Captan 400
Protectant, eradicant fungicide.
Copper Ammonium Carbonate
Copper-Count-N
Bactericide, Fungicide.
Carbendazim
Bavistin, Decrosol
Systemic fungicide.
Copper Carbonate
Foliar fungicide, Seed treatments.
Carbon Disulfide
Copper Compounds
Soil fumigant.
More stable than bordeaux mix, less phytotoxic,
easier to use, and with less objectionable residue.
Copper sprays control many blights, leaf spots,
downy and powdery mildews. They are incompat-
ible with lime sulfur, questionable with cryolite,
Carboxin
Vitavax
Fungicide, seed protectant.
