Grape Grower Finds Exceptional Control of Powdery Mildew with CS 2005
Winery Success Story in North Carolina
We love celebrating real results from growers using CS 2005, and this one is a standout. At JOLO Winery in Mount Pilot, North Carolina — ranked among the Top 7 wineries outside California on TripAdvisor — grape‐grower JW Ray reports outstanding control of powdery mildew on both wine and table grapes.
The Challenge: Powdery Mildew on Sensitive Grapes
JW was battling powdery mildew on multiple grape varieties (Vidal Blanc, Chambourcon, Traminette) known for their sensitivity to copper. After switching to CS 2005, the results were immediate.
The Solution: CS 2005 Delivers Proven Control
“I’m in love with your product! … I’ve sprayed it on three varieties… they have performed spectacularly. I’ll be at 20 ounces of CS 2005 with 75 gallons of water per acre but it eradicated the early onset of powdery mildew!” — JW Ray
In the 2021 UC Davis Grape Powdery Mildew Fungicide Efficacy Trials, CS 2005 achieved:
-
83% control of powdery mildew when infection pressure was 71%
-
95% control when infection pressure was 46%
