Default Black spots / Defender

Hi There .... I picked up some safers defender. I can't seem to find some of the other more popular brands for fungus or bacteria. I did ask about a rose fungicide spray, I was told they not longer stock it and it's discontinued.They did have some powder forms but I was uncertain about this and didn't want to risk geting the wrong stuff.
I have some blackish pits on my phal and flat black spots on a Cochleata orchid. Has anyone here had any success with this product and did you use it as instructed on the label??

Thanks for any help

Try this site: Control & Prevention > Disease Control at HarvestSafe.com They show several Safer brand fungicides. Don't know if they ship to Canada.

I don't do most Dendros or large, "floofy orchids". For me it's minis (like Angraecoides), Paphs, and others that crept in somewhere along the line. See my orchid list for complete collection (usually not current.)

Smartie, Normally I can find this stuff in any of the hardward stores, seems their shelves are fairly empty right now, well as of last week anyways. I'll be checking back this weekend. But hopefully the safers defender I brought will do the job.
