Sounds like you are using organic or sustainable practices or want to do so=
. You have PM, simply get an organically certified sulfur spray or PM cont=
rol and spray your crops. CT will NOT kill PM. It may have prevented the =
spread but it sounds like you are in a heavy PM area and weather profile. =
Don't waste time with things that might work and go directly for the things=
 that do work. But it's your crop. I would forget experimentation at this =
point unless you want to set aside some small portion of your field for a t=
