               I used " Pristien " this year for that mode of action and won't use anything else now.
  Worked great!

               Here is a good resource that not only explains a little about the disease but also offers some suggestions for products to use for control:
  http://vegetablemdonline.ppath.cornell.edu/NewsArticles/Cuc_Downy.htm
  This is also another good resource:
  http://www.hort.uconn.edu/ipm/veg/htms/Scouting%20for%20Downy%20Mildew.pdf
  Remember there are different strains of Downy Mildew so the product that worked well last year may or may not work well this year.
