Do prophylactic applications of fungicides work to prevent Late Blight
in tomatoes? How about waiting until the first sign of spotted yellow

I sprayed my plants with Agway's Fruit Tree Spray, which contains Captan,
after they started to get sick, it arrested the disease and I got a fair
number of tomatoes. I'll look for something safer next year and use it
prophylacticly.
