General usage information

Diseases Controlled Application Rates Application Notes

OUTDOOR FIELD AND CONTAINER GROWN BEDDING PLANTS AND CUT FLOWERS

Downy mildew, Phytophthora crown and Root rot

60–119 mL /ha

FOLIAR: Apply the spray solution to all plant surfaces and to the point of runoff.

DRENCH: Use enough solution to wet the root zone of plants.

Make foliar or drench applications on a 14–28 day schedule beginning when disease conditions are favourable, but prior to disease development.

PHYTOPHTHORA: For resistance management, Presidio Fungicide must be tank mixed with a labelled rate of another fungicide registered for the target pathogen, but with a different mode of action. Apply Presidio Fungicide in a tank mix with ALIETTE®. Follow the most restrictive use directions of either label.

GREENHOUSE ORNAMENTALS

Downy mildew

292 mL /ha

Application should be made prior to disease development.

Apply as a broadcast spray in 190–380 L/ha or 19–38 L/1000 m2. Apply the spray solution to all plant surfaces and to the point of runoff.

For resistance management, Presidio Fungicide must be used in a tank mix with TORRENT 400SC Agricultural Fungicide, or another registered alternative from a different fungicide group that is effective against the target pest.
