welcome back ! well I think it depends on what type of problem you are trying to tackle....

for simple stuff like fingus I use Dithane ( mancozeb at 80%)

For fungicide I have used physan, consan (same thing), and phyton 27. I only use these if it is a very bad problem. For minor fungus problems I use cinnamon.

Welcome back, Alfred! I use cinnamon mostly and I do my best to not use any kind of chemicals because I grow my plants indoors and have pets.
