Carolyn, sometimes it's better to throw it out there rather than give links that can get lost in the shuffle. I've been using the Triple A's this year with good success concerning all the rain we have been getting to include almost all of July. This week we have had a heat wave here in Germany so hopefully this will put the disease in check for awhile. The farmers have been running their combines like crazy this week harvesting their grain crops before the rain hits again.
What are my three A's.
1. Actinovate, as a soil drench and foliar.
2. Azoxystrobin as a foliar.
3. Agri-Fos (EXEL) as a foliar and it is a Systemic as well.

The other thing I've found is my plants which have a roof over their heads have had no problems. Under the balcony, in my open greenhouse with no sides with just a roof and even my enclosed greenhouse. Keeping the rain off of them allows your fungicide application to remain on the foliage protecting your plant from disease. Ami
