Bordeaux leafhopper control shows best results for potatoes
The U S Department of Agriculture reports two years of tests showing Bordeaux mixture defeats the potato leafhopper and hopper burn. Mixing 4 lb copper sulfate with 4 lb hydrated lime in 50 gallons of water provides effective control, with Bordeaux plus nicotine sulphate offering faster but costlier results. Apply thoroughly to both sides of leaves under high pressure, at least three applications, possibly four, to protect the crop until maturity.
