I'm using 1/2 teaspoon/gallon of water.

can I go higher than this- any advantage to going higher to knock down some early powdery mildew? thanks.

good question I think it calls fot 4 oz to 100 gallons.That would be 1 oz to 25 gallons,then.So that would be 1/10 of an oz to 2.5 gallons.That seems lean but its some potent stuff.The first time I used it last August I used like 2 tablespoons to a 2 gallon mix.It smelled like Moth balls & then I found out I was way to strong.The leafs got really green .but didnt seem to hurt the plant any.I never saw any PW again.lol I think your safe with the 1/2 teaspoon,but I'm no X -spurt.It would be nice to hear from someone who is.Im getting ready to spray smokey Lovelace with some.

I use 1/2 a Tablespoon per Gallon (two tablespoons per 4 gallon sprayer) of water without issue. I am spreading this over many plants though. I know it is strong, but two years ago I used this rate and never had an issue with PM. Last year I used a lower rate and fought PM for almost two months.

I use my Gilmour hose end spray set at the minimum, which is about 1 teaspoon per gallon, or about 5ml/gallon. Its a bit on the heavy side, but hasn't damaged the leaves so far. And no PM whatsoever. I don't want to dilute it in the jar so I can put what is left over right into the original container.

It was great to see you Saturday, glad you could make the trip south.
