| Continuous
protection from June 15 until 30 days before harvest is recommended. Flyspeck infections that begin before
August 19 are likely to become visible around September 20. Infections that begin before August 30 are
likely to become visible around October 20.
But warm wet weather in September can reduce flyspeck development time
resulting in earlier dates of flyspeck appearance before harvest. Postinfection control of flyspeck may occur with application a strobilurin or Topsin M fungicide within 50 wet hours after the 'Protection end date' of the previous fungicide application. |

Date flyspeck infections that started after end of protection
could appear (Left side = rough estimate of flyspeck show date for dense canopy trees if weather beyond forecast range is in top 20% of years for both temperature and wet hours. x = show date is within forecast range. Right side = rough estimate of flyspeck show date for small, open canopy, low-risk trees.) |
