I have no experience with rot in Siberians. For rot with TBs, I have used
the 0.5% hypochlorite dipping solution and/or soil sulfur. Since soil sulfur
is a slow acting soil acidifier, it would seem appropriate for use with
Siberians.
There is an agricultural streptomycian (spelling is no doubt wrong, I am an
engineer not a speller) called Agramycian. It is useful for rot type
problems. Depending on your feelings about chemicals, value of plants and
cost of locally available materials, one of more of these alternatives is a
possibility.
