Ontario potato update: June 27

June 28, 2016, Alliston, Ont. – Irrigation was the order of the day on June 27, writes Eugenia Banks, OMAFRA potato specialist, in her latest update. Banks checked a few fields near Alliston, Ont., for early blight but did not find any lesions. The fields had been sprayed recently and there was fungicide residue on the leaves.   

Banks did not see any damage caused by air pollution and weed control was good (Prism was applied after emergence). A good, steady rain is needed in most areas of the province.
