I'm having horrible Phomopsis problems on my Dot mango. It has almost killed the small tree back to a stump. I went to Orange County Farm supply and their pesticide guru recommended Monterey Complete Disease Control with an active ingredient of bacillus Amyloliquefaciens. He says it is a beneficial Bacteria that outcompetes most harmful bacteria and Fungi such as Phomopsis and Powdery Mildew. Since it is a bacteria you only have to use it as a drench once to get it into your soil. As a foliar you need to spray it every two weeks. Has anyone tried this? It sounds too good to be true.Bill
