My garden is riddled with spraing, and always has been. It was very
bad last year, and has particularly affected my Champions - which I
cannot simply get new seed of, as they are not available.

Is there anything practical I can do, short of not growing potatoes
for some years and starting again with clean stock?

Nick Maclaren.

I'd not heard of Spraing before and thought you might be taking the mickey
(Spring/Spraing/Champions etc.) although I thought this unlikely.
You may have seen this before, otherwise I hope it will be of some
assistance
'Use integrated control strategies to minimise spraing on infected soils.
For reduction of spraing, Temik 10G may be applied in furrow dose rate of
128 g /100 m row, or in PCN situations as an overall treatment at 33.6
kg/ha (maincrop) or 22.4 kg/ha (first earlies, harvested within 8 weeks of
planting) immediately before planting.'

I hope this may be of some assistance, otherwise my apologies for wasting
your time.

Regards
another
Nick.
