Sorry, my oversight Byron. Daconil and copper-based fungicides are the only
fungicides I've ever used on vegetables, but I've never had fungus problems
with peppers. Sulfer supposedly gives limited control, but I've not tried it
either. I searched the web and one page lists the following:
> Peppers: captan (Captan, Maestro); copper hydroxide (Champion, Coppercide,
> Kocide); tribasic copper sulphate (Basicop, Copper 53); thiram (Thiram ST);
> zineb (Zineb)
Maybe your county ag. extension office will know if these or others are
suitable/legal for your purpose.
