Wettable Sulphur Sprays Improve Disease Control
Wettable sulphur sprays are growing in popularity across regions for disease control and reduced plant injury compared with standard lime sulphur. Lime sulphur delivers sulphur in soluble form but can enter leaf or fruit tissues through cracks causing injury. It also forms compounds with arsenate of lead that can burn, though hydrated lime can mitigate this issue.

Treated fruit stored up to five months shows no injury, with some varieties like Rhode Island Greening gaining better finish. In fall 1926 workers dipped 180 bushels in three hours using splint baskets and hogsheads. acid cost about 15 cents and the operation ran under two cents per bushel.
