Hi Stephen and Dianne and all--After looking on the VA Tech website, I
believe it is brown rot--when is has not been raining here in VA zone
6b, it has been at 85% humidity or greater.
I do have Serenade and Funginex--will read the labels tonight. I, like
Dr. Barr, am several days away from picking.
Of course, I will also remove all infested fruit and throw away the
gloves. I think I missed the dormant oil this year, but I seem to
recall using Neem toward the end of last year.
Fortunately we had a "cold front" come through yesterday which in
VAspeak means the humidity is a little lower today! Guess I know what
I'm doing after work!!
Thanks, Barbara
