small, round,
sunken spots. These
spots grow larger,
and soon the whole
fruit is affected and
develops water rot.

copper soap fungicide
starting after
setting out plants, then every 7-10 days. Apply
more frequently if disease is increasing rapidly.
Reapply after rain. We recommend Soap-Shield®

Barrier Mats (Heavy or Medium weight) also help by
keeping fungi in the
soil from splashing on leaves during rains.
