    Q
    How much CuPRO 5000 DF Fungicide do I use per gallon to treat roses?
    I purchased CuPRO to use both as a preventative and to treat blackspot. I am not able to determine from the label how much I should use per gallon of water. Actually, I find the instructions hard to comprehend--since it uses acres an so forth. Have others said the same thing? My concern is that I do not want to use too much or too little.
    A

    CuPRO 5000 DF Fungicide is a professional product and the label may be difficult to understand. Like most fungicides and herbicides, the amount of water is not important as it acts as a carrier. You will mix 1 1/2 tsp in no less than 1-2 gallons of water. Per the label, the product can cause discoloration of foliage and/or blooms on some varieties of roses. Popular choices for black spot on roses that come in smaller quantities would be Brandt Consan Triple Action 20, or Bayer Advanced Disease Control for Roses, Flowers and Shrubs Concentrate.

    Q
    How much water with 1oz CuPRO 5000 DF Fungicide?
    yOU SAY "use 1 ounce(2 TBSP) CuPRO 5000 DF Fungicide per 1000 square feet in no less than 1-2 gallons of water..." That is a 100% difference in the strength of the solution. That is a lot. Can you be more definitive in the amount please. ONE VALUE.
    A
    When using CuPRO 5000 DF Fungicide water acts as the carrier. In fact, the more water the better to assist with the plant soaking up the CUpro. As long as you evenly apply 1 oz over 1000 square feet, you can use either 1-2 gallons of water.

    01/29/2015
    Q
    Can CuPRO 5000 DF Fungicide be used for Ball Moss on my trees?
    A

    Yes, CuPRO 5000 DF is a good option to treat for Ball Moss. You need to apply in the early spring when trees are dormant. Apply 9 to 12 pounds of CuPRO 5000 per 100 gallons of water or .5 oz per gallon of water, using 1.5 gallons of spray per foot of tree height. Be sure to thoroughly wet ball moss tufts.

    You can also add a non-ionic surfactant, like Kinetic, to help improve control. A second application may be required after 12 months.

    This product is also good for Spanish Moss and lichens.

  • Asked by Chris from San Jose, Ca
    01/13/2018
    Q
    Can copper CuPro 5000 DF be applied to fruit trees as a dormant or delayed dormant spray?
    There seems to be some confusion about the use of Copper Hydroxide on crops. Other products with the same active ingredients, such as Nu-Cop 50 DF and Kocide 3000, can be used on fruit trees as a Dormant, Late Dormant, Up to Pink Bud. There are some specific restrictions, however, as to total annual amounts.
    A

    CuPRO 5000 DF Fungicide is not labeled to be used on anything edible and we would not recommend it.  Please refer to our Edible Fungicide products for the best product to use depending on what you are treating.

    Q
    Treating for needlecast rust on Spruce trees and wanting to know if CuPRO 5000 DF Fungicide and Kocide 3000 the same product?
    Have a beautiful Spruce tree that this Spring started showing brown needles. After looking on-line, it fit the description of needle cast rust. I have sprayed with Draconil a few times. Copper hydoxide seems to be the choice of treatment from what Iread. So that is my question.
    A

    Kocide 3000-O Fungicide/Bactericide has been discontinued by the manufacturer with CuPRO 5000 DF Fungicide being the recommended alternative product as both products contain the active ingredient Copper hydroxide.
