I just noticed that my garden center is now carrying a ready-to-use spray bottle made by a company called Garden Tech so I picked one up. Other than that, any garden center or hardware store that carries Ortho products would have it. It goes by the name Garden Disease Control now though.

The ready-to-use is very sticky/gummy and overall a poor-quality, expensive product.

Chlorothanonil is available as a 29.6% concentrate and is sold as Daconil and Ortho Garden Disease Control.

For tomatoes, it is used 1 tbsp (3 tsp) to 1 gallon of water.

Ready-to-use is $9 for 1/4 gallon.
Concentrate is $12 for 32 gallons.

Well, I guess that was a waste if it's gummy. I thought I might save myself some energy by not carrying that big sprayer around. Luckily, I still have a lot of the Ortho concentrate. Thanks!

Shelley, one of those ready to spray bottles would just cover at most 2 of my large plants, and my hand would get sore from squeezing the trigger, so the big sprayer and concentrate is the only way to go for me.

What's the concentration % of active ingredients?

The brand at Walmart (Garden something) has the same concentration as Ortho Garden Disease Control (29% I believe). I compared the two bottles before making my purchase.
