I've bought a pound of Bonide's Copper Fungicide (the Bordeaux Modern Replacement version) in powder form meant for spraying. However, I've gone through the entire instruction booklet several times and can't find any mix ratios for using it as a spray. It keeps referring me to a "spray table" that isn't included, and I've also looked on the Bonide website and contacted customer support, but they just say it depends on the size of the tree. So, I'm stuck! Can anyone help me out with the correct and safe mix ratio for preparing a handheld sprayer solution using Bonide Copper Fungicide Dust and water?

It sounds like you're on a wild goose chase! From what I gather, the mix ratios for sprays are actually found in the "ornamentals" section, but it can be really confusing. Honestly, it seems they're pushing the dust application for edible plants instead of offering clear spray ratios. It's a letdown, really. If you can't find those instructions, you might have to use it as a powder for now, which isn't ideal.

Thanks for chiming in! Yeah, I checked out that section, and it mostly mentions measurements per 1000 feet instead of any clear spray ratios. So, I guess we're left puzzling over how to make this work for our plants.
