I use Ferbam at pink bud and at petal fall; and captan at
intervals of approximately 7 to 10 days thereafter, until within about 2 weeks
of harvest, for my peaches and plums, and get (in most years) good control of
brown rot. With peaches, it also helps to thin the fruit so that no two
fruits are touching.
