I went to the organic gardening sections to see what they had. I found a several products and finally went with Safer Brand 3-in-1 garden spray. Its label says it helps control black spot. Tomorrow morning I will get up early and test this product. I will let everyone know how the test works out.
After I got back, it was just to hot to get anything done outside. Since the wife was having a girl's day out with one her close friends, I chose to have amovie day for me. Its been months since I set down to some violent action movies! I watched The Marine (not so good), 3:10 to Yuma, (Not bad, a lot of good actors, Christian Bale and Russel Crowe rocked in this movie), and The last Legion ( not bad, will have to watch again, lots of violence, and sword play!)
After the movies I was in a man mood. I went out and worked on my truck for a while. I got it running a few months ago and thought I would get the last bit of engine work on it done and make sure things looked / sounded right and take it out for some wheeling out in a field near the house. I normally do not do those type of things, but that field has been calling my name for 4 months!
The truck needs a lot work, but its suppose to look bad, its an old farm truck my brother and I rescued from rusting out and ending up in a land fill or junk yard some where.
Here are some pictures after my fun in the mud. Its not much, I just wanted to test the 4 wheel drive out and check out the fishing hole near by.

Ive been having trouble with aphids too and haven't had any luck with any good sprays. Let us know how the NEEM works for black spot.
ReplyDeleteI have been told by Tyler TX Rose people that NEEM does not work well. It does work for aphids and other bugs. NEEM is not good and will harm/kill Ladybugs. Look your roses and other plants over before using.
ReplyDeleteThe Tyler Rose specialist said to get a good Fungicide. He said most organic products well work for controlling it, but non organic products will kill it faster. He said to remove all BS and then spray w/ a good fungicide. I figure by July I should know of Safe Brand works. If not I will switch to non organic product to see if it works better.
