Any Harm?

Post by xIIRevoEvoS »

Is there any harm if I prepare a spray mix for fungicide on my bonsai - particularly on Maples/Cherry/Cotoneaster/Elms?
Liquid Copper Fungicide is what I have currently. Whats better first - fertiliser concentrate with water first or Fungicide Spray last?

OR

Allow the Fungicide Spray to settle couple of days then fertliser the trees?
Kind Regards

Firstly I avoid using this type of preperation on my trees without very good reason. Is it to treat a recurring or spreading problem?

I would let the leaves fall, clean them all away then spray the bare tree a couple of times over winter with your copper.
