Hey Pete - how's your brother and his family doing? I remember they were going through some rough waters around this time last year (or was it the year before). Question about the fungicides: what's the rate for Azoxy and Prop? I have a 25k sq ft lawn and am not sure which size jugs to purchase. Also - why do you use a mix of the two? Would just Prop or Azoxy work on its own?

@Dsaubt Жыл бұрын

If you have cool season grass with hot and humid weather you WILL get disease and you should do everything you can to prevent it. Especially with having a certain amount of fungicide group applications you can apply per year.... You can easily plan out a preventative program and not hit your limits... When you are stuck with the disease it is usually at the worst time of the year, you are using double the rate at the shortest interval, and is much harder to cure than prevent.

@@PrincernPrince I’m using the red nozzle as well which is a teejet XRC which should be good for a foliar application. And I am using around .58 gallons per 1000 sq ft instead of the 1-2 gallon that the fungicides recommend. I seem to still get fungus too. Im wondering if a preventative application with low carrier volume should be watered in lightly so the fungicides can get to the roots and can be taken up into the leaf tissue. And if you are actively treating fungus that you can see, then increase carrier volume.
