Apply 5 pounds of CAPTAN 80 WDG Fungicide per acre in 20 to 400 gallons of water using ground equipment or in 5 to 20 gallons of water by air. Apply at 5- to 7-day intervals as needed to maintain control in pre-bloom, bloom, petal fall and first cover sprays.

Secondary scab, Brooks fruit spot, Sooty blotch, Fly speck, Black rot, Black pox, Botryosphaeria rot, Bitter rot

 

2.5-5.0

Apply 2.5 to 5 pounds of CAPTAN 80 WDG Fungicide per acre in 20 to 400 gallons of water using ground equipment or in 5 to 20 gallons of water by air. Apply at 10- to 14-day intervals in second and later cover sprays.

2.5-5.0

Apply 2.5 to 5 pounds of CAPTAN 80 WDG Fungicide per acre in 20 to 400 gallons of water using ground equipment or in 5 to 20 gallons of water by air. To reduce the potential for disease resistance development to other fungicides having a similar spectrum, the lower rate may be used in tank mixtures.
