A couple of my tomatoes are showing signs of stress. I checked and found mites, a few aphids, and the inevitable yellow fungus problem. Also, one of my choc habs is being chewed up by what I believe are leaf hoppers. So, I happened across this product:
http://www.fertilome.com/product.aspx?pid=062dfd7a-5cdd-4613-b0c4-e7322f9de885
It is-
.25% Pyrethrins
2.50% Piperonyl Butoxide, technical
70.00% Clarified extract of Neem Oil
other ingredients - 27.25% (no clue what these are, I am assuming inert filler)
I just applied it with a pump sprayer to the affected plants and was wondering if anyone had used it before, or if anyone else has any other suggestions in case this product doesn't get the job done. It says to apply on a 7 day schedule, but I am thinking of pushing it to the next application in 5 days and then back off.
One more question for you master gardeners - I used daconil on a cherry tomato for the same fungus and it worked great, and am wondering if daconil can be used in conjunction with this stuff?
Thanks!
