I used Daconil this year, and it has been very effective, and I have not had
any waterspots. I use a spread-sticker with it. My experience has been
to use Daconil exactly as the label recommends. I suppose using it with
a higher concentration might be a reason for getting waterspots. My garden
spayer spays a very fine mist, which also makes it invisible on the plants.
The most important thing to do is to use it as frequent as the label
recommends. I had to learn the hard way. In previous years, I would do
it once a month or just a couple of times, and I wondered why I still had
leaf spot. This year, my good friend Betty Coyle reinforced in my mind
that you MUST spray EVERY 10 days or as the label recommends. So I started
in the winter, and I faithfully sprayed every 10 days or thereabouts,
hoping to get a 24 hour period before it rained again, up and through last
weekend. AND it has made a world of difference... next to no leaf spot.
I've learned my lesson.
