Tom Beachy swears by straight Bravo 4F (chlorothalonil 4F). I took that
advice one year & it worked. I chose that method as there was no way to keep
that fruit dry. I'd use a dry treatment like sulfur otherwise.

Kind of sick, have a big one growing and the rains we have the last couple
of days caused a split in the stem and a little into the fruit. Not sure if
I should make up a cocktail of daconil and pour it into the split in the
stem and wherever else there appears to be some tearing, in order to avoid
rot. Advice would be greatly appreciated.
