Fungicides - Copper, Greencure/Potassium Bicarb. and ?

luigiwu · July 18, 2015

How soon after you spray can you eat the fruit whether its copper or greencure/potassium bicarbonate?

What do either of those products do to the soil of your garden?

I typically use the milk spray but its no longer work in a part of the garden that doesn't really see sun anymore.

What do you use to control fungal issues?

Thanks!!

too much copper over time will build up and you will have a heavy metal contamination. Use it sparingly.
