If I am reading this chart correctly, captan is a big no-no if you previously applied myco when you set your plants out? I use captan, but only as a paste to fill in broken stems and holes .http://www.extremepumpkinstore.com/media/pdf//Effects%20of%20Turf%20&%20Ornamental%20Fungicides%20.pdf

if your using a mico product in the soil and your only using captan on an exterior area there is no problem
if your spraying a mico product? i would not use the captan.
we never use captan

Broadcast foliar sprays to the point of runoff would injure mycorrhizae. Used as a spot treatment is no problem.

What about run-off of all the commonly used fungicides like Banner, Compass, Eagle, Daconil and Manzeb? It seems like a grower has to do one or the other (myco vs. fungicides). I don't know how to spray without any drops going onto the soil.
