I have a mild case of downy mildew here. I am trying a systemic - which is basically a phosphite - has anyone elsed used agri fos. looks like a fairly good product with minimal bacterial impact except on a narrow range of things.

Also...will it work for powdery mildew prevention as well?

Hmmmmm....I miss Tremor.

A European Grower swears by the combination of Agri Fos and Actinovate. I've been trying it and all I can say is so far so good. My plants held-up the best they have under extreme heat and humidity too.

I've been using it in my rotation of fungicides to ward off a disease I believe to be gummy stem blight. Last year the disease had already gotten a foot hold around early July. Now I've only seen the very beginnings of it this past week, but so far I've been able to keep it in check.

Phosphite fungicides are excellent products and an important part of a disease control program. Keep in mind that they are preventitive only. If you already have some PM showing up, you should be going with a more curitive product such as eagle.
