Spray Controls Late Blight on Potatoes Says County Agent
County Agent Bb L Coleman warns yields hinge on disease control for potatoes. In Pennsylvania 187 farmers produced over 400 bushels per acre, with top growers over 500 and 600 bushels. He urges at least 10 sprays using Bordeaux mixture, starting early and continuing through August, applying 150 gallons per acre at 250 to 300 pounds pressure with three nozzles per row. Spraying while plants stay green protects against late blight and boosts profits, as Northampton farmers have shown.
