I plan to do some
minimal spraying on old standard apple trees to knock out scab and prevent early
defoliation. I have the granulated form of Captan (WG) and a tractor mounted
high pressure Rears spray rig with a gun. All of the information I can find
gives formulas for per acre application. I need to know at what rate to dilute
the granulated powder, as I will be manually spraying individual trees. Can
anyone help with this information? What would a suggested schedule be for
application? Thanks in advance.
