  One lady on called on the radio with black spot coming    
  on every new shoot on her roses but not on the older      
  leaves. He told her to try this recipe. 2 Teas. baking    
  soda in 1 gallon water. Spray new foliage on half the     
  rose plants she has and see what that did for her. A      
  test run for her plants. Also for Roses. Make a rose      
  spray out of Rose dust with 6 tablespoons of rose dust    
  in 1 gallon water. Add fels Naptha soap solution to       
  it. FNSS is made by taking 1" of a bar of Fels Naptha     
  soap or octagon soap and shave it into 1 quart of         
  boiling water to which you add 4 oz of liquid dish        
  soap.. Use this in the Rose dust spray above at the       
  rate of 1 teaspoon per quart, 1 tablespoon per gallon 1      
  cup per 20 gallons. Rose dust can be purchased made of    
  Pyrethrum, Copper, rotenone an sulfur at major garden    
  centers. **Tobacco juice...I have to get the recipe       
  and put it on. I think it's worth using and for those     
  who don't want to use it, then make the recipe without    
  it. It must not be used on nightshade family plants        
  like tomatoes, potatoes, peppers and eggplant. They       
  may be susceptible to virus the tobacco carries. This      
  is just for roses. Don't spray near the nightshade        
  plants.
