romy6 said:May be the soil just isn't drying out drowning the plants ? I have had that with container plants as well .
Hope you get some closure on this .

I'm a staunch Bayer guy, anymore.
Besides having worked better for me along the way, I think they have to consider their research in light of all of their research ...
They had to reveal a lot to the EU during the opening phases of the honeybee crap re: their product line based on nicotine ... the nuonicotinoids/neonicotinoids or something like that ...
I had a great result using their hormore-based product for ants around the perimeter of the house ... took a while, but the problem was resolved some months later, and has never crept back up ...
Who knows what the ripple effect is, but I've never applied an outdoor product so targeted ...
Didn't kill the lizards, palmetto bugs, silverfish or anything - just the ants.

Three years is very common however for many terrible killers like the one above. I am about to give up on tomatoes for this very reason...everywhere they go they bring damn issues!bpiela said:3 years?? That is not realistic is it?

Not sure how it spreads but if it was at the root level could be spread by water and probably even worms one could assume. I hope you recover!tctenten said:Currently have another 4 plants with full wilt. I got my Agri-fos yesterday and this morning I drenched the effected plants and the soil around them. I also foliar sprayed 2 other plants to see if there is any leaf burn issues.
The 4 plants are goners, but just trying to eliminate the fungus. I am not really sure how fungus spreads?
If there is no ill effects, I will spray all the plants later this week.
Yes...one of the effected one now is a MW, but I have this guy in a 25 gallon root pouch on the other side of my houseJoynersHotPeppers said:Three years is very common however for many terrible killers like the one above.

Any mystery wine still alive?
The instructions recommended foliar spray....but I did both.grantmichaels said:Yup ... I terminated maters for that reason a few yrs back, too.I would thought it would be a drench treatment ...
tctenten said:Some good news and some bad news.
So far 9 out of 60 plants have been pulled. Since spraying on Sunday, I have had some leaf drop/ burn on some of the plants but I have not noticed anymore plant loss.
It is still early in the game, but hopefully the tide is turning. For the next few years I will use primarily root pouches in this area. Through a few emails with Rutgers they said the Phytophthora will travel into the root pouches
