  Hi

I read once that Daconil works best  with water that is a little acid, so I
whenever I used Daconil I would add a little vinegar to the water to
increase its effectiveness.  Miracid would work just as well as the vinegar,
but it is not, I fear, a replacement for fungicide treatments.  I've been
trying not to spray (mucho butterflies)--most of my old-fashionned and shrub
roses are doing great, but my few hybid teas are struggling.
