here in the pacific NW we have had a lingering cold rainy spring into summer. The other day we went from 60's to almost 90 and then a week or so of sweltering heat. It didn't take long before the tips of my junipers especially
the natives began to show yellow tips.
been spraying a copper based spray. my teacher says to vary between brands, not to use same brand or ingredients continually. My rocky mountain junipers really affected.

I'm sorry, I don't. As soon as I noticed it coming on, I removed the yellowing tips with a tweezer and then sprayed. So far, no new yellow tips but after initial spray in two weeks there is another chance for the spores
to spread again, so I plan to spray again rather than get caught again.

I did spray all my juniper but my shimpaku showed no sign, while the Rocky MT junipers was most affected.
