So, last year I had an issue with rhizophaera fungus, spruce needle cast. This year I have been applying Daconil fungicide as a preventative measure. Due to having so many spruce, all on slightly different schedules (pushing buds), I end up over spraying and hitting (especially small ones) other plants at different stages of developing new needles. Recently I have noticed some small buds seem to have dried up and turned red. As noted, mostly on small ones that get hit repeatedly with overspray. Curious if the fungicide could be doing this to buds that are too young to receive, albeit inadvertent, treatment? If not, any other ideas of what's going on? Note, in the pics, the white residue is the Daconil from last nights application.
