Find out exactly what the condition was supposed to be so you can look it up yourself and get more information. If your source said it was "a fungus", go back and ask them to be more specific. Effective and safe use of pesticides (including fungicides) requires knowing which particular bug or blight you have, selection of products, application rates and timing of applications known to be appropriate.
