Protect crops from botrytis

When crops are at flowering, wet unsettled weather can lead to botrytis.

Botrytis initially attacks the petals leading to death of the developing pods.

A fungicide applied at flowering can help reduce the problem. Note not all fungicides approved for use on combining peas can be applied to vining peas.
