From UGA Extension Plant Pathologist Dr. Bob Kemerait here are fungicide applications considering favorable wet weather, delays in applications, corn and peanuts in vulnerable growth stages:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“1. \u00a0Corn growers with a pre-tassel crop or one already denting? Don\u2019t spray.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
2. Corn growers Macon and north- watch and wait.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
3. Corn growers with a scout in the field and no southern corn rust- you can wait, but you might need to pull that fungicide trigger all of a sudden.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
4. Sprayed within the past 2 weeks? Don\u2019t spray today, but given the threat, you might need to spray again…<\/p>\n\n\n\n
5. Sprayed 3 weeks ago? I\u2019m glad you did; now check corn growth stage before you spray again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
1. Peanuts: leaf spot and white mold are a active. These first hits of white mold on young plants are near impossible to stop, but you CAN stop the spread.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
2. \u201cBob, we\u2019re 42 days out now without a fungicide, and it may be a week before we can get in the field. \u00a0What\u2019s do you recommend.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A. Did you use Velum at planting? If so, it has helped you with leaf spot as well. Spray as soon as you can; wouldn\u2019t hurt to include some fungicide with systemic activity. And something for early-season white mold as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
B. If you didn\u2019t use Velum, Thimet gave you a little help if you used it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
C. Bottom line: starting a spray program between 45 and 50 days after planting is tricky. My two top choices are use of Priaxor or Lucento. Second place would be Provysol + chlorothalonil, Alto + chlorothalonil, Domark + chlorothalonil, Mazinga, and even Aproach Prima. I\u2019d also add 7.2 teb with them for good measure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
D. \u00a0Can you mix Cadre with them? Yes. \u00a0Can you mix clethodim with them? According to Dr. Prostko doing so will compromise your grass control so I wouldn\u2019t do it.” <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
