HOW TO CONTROL NEEDLE BLIGHT

Spraying with ORGANIC COPPER OXY will prevent new infections, but will not cure diseased needles.

A spray of SUPER SPECTRUM in early June is sufficient to provide protection of new foliage. However, a second application three to four weeks later will provide more complete control.

About

Needle Blight is a disease that usually affects pine trees. Needle blight first appears as dark
green, water-soaked spots on the needles. The spots become tan, yellow, or reddish-brown. 
The tip of the needle beyond the band eventually dies leaving the base of the needle alive and green. Young trees are more likely to suffer damage than older trees.
