I don't think we've ever tested Actinovate with that many combinations. I would see what the Tomatoville folks say. We also have a blight tip sheet that you can download on our website at naturalindustires.com/retail and then click on the Actinovate page.

Thanks

I did find a pdf file on their site: http://www.naturalindustries.com/ret...httipsheet.pdf which says that Actinovate can help to prevent damage from Early and Late Blight if precautionary steps are taken. Upon further research on the web (and here), it seems that
chlorothalonil (ie Daconil) does provide effective control for some. I suppose my experiance with it last year was not typical. Perhaps i let it get too much of a head start on me before i began treating. At any rate, i will go ahead and start my fungicidal treatments this year right now. I'll be on the safe side, and apply Neems oil in a seperate application in between the fungicidal regime.

Thanks to everyone who chimed in on this...
