Is it possible to give light doses of synthetics and not kill the fungi? I would like to go as much organic as possible, but in some cases like peaches, one must use fungicide to control the brown rot. Many people I have talked to have tried organically and have not has success. Part of it is the area, like in CA brown rot is not a problem. But in the South, Northeast, and Midwest it is a major problem with peaches and other stone fruit. No organic solution has worked very well. I refuse to stop growing them. We need some effective organic fungicides. Hopefully in the future we will find a way.
