Daconil Shelf Life

jwr6404 · November 6, 2010

While cleaning out my gardening storage area I found a couple,1 opened, containers of Daconil. Was wondering if there is a practical shelf of this and/or most other gardening products. It amazed me that I had accumulated so much and forgot that I had them on hand. Is it possible that being 73 contibutes to a memory deficiency?

I wrote Ortho to ask this question a few years ago and if I recall correctly, it begins to lose it's efficiency after 3 years.

I posted the letter here somewhere but I'll be danged if I can find it.

Edited to add: found it! See attached file.

Not sure if it applies to this as well but Se7en losses some of its zip if it freezes. I have bought it at a box store and not realized it was from the year prior and stored in an unheated space. Then went to a different store bought the exact same thing and it worked great. So that might be something to look at as well.
