As you suggest, probably won't cure blight but if I can delay it for 2 or 3 weeks, I may get a decent crop. After last year's disappointment, there's only 3 allotments growing spuds this year. I'm the only one using Bordeaux, it'll be interesting to see how things pan out. Bordeaux mixture. I'm not surprised you're the only one using it. Not available any more. Withdrawn from sale a couple of years ago. Yours is old stock, I take it. Make it last! Ouch, thanks Chris, that's a blow. You're right it is old stock. When Nick recommended it, I didn't realise I had a half uses tub in the garage. It's dated 2011 :- https://prnt.sc/fdiv5p so I only have enough for 4 x 1 litre doses !! Hopeless if I can't get fresh supplies. I notice that Bligh****ch is sponsored by 'Belchim Crop Protection'. I'll give them a buzz tomorrow but I'll bet they only supply farmers OR the minimum order for Brand X is 50 gallons :-) The question is - what has replaced Bordeaux? |
