Seed Fungicide

General Discussion

Are there any other options for a seed/seedling fungicide than Captan? I would experiment but I dont exactly want to gamble with my seedlings. Any information would be awesome since Captan is difficult to obtain in comparison to other fungicides in my area.

I’ve had good luck with using TA20 (Triple Action 20).

Thanks for the alternatives guys =) Im always skiddish of chemicals since the passing of quite a few people from my area of rose country (Western Oregon) from cancer. I usually dont use any at all but I got some seedling sets from ‘Freedom’ this year (failed passed 2 years) and didnt want to gamble on any losses.
