Brown Patch Fungicide Trial
Mark L. Gleason, Stephen N. Wegulo, Sara J. Helland, and John P. Newton
Trials were conducted at Veenker Golf Course on the campus of Iowa State University. Fungicides, selected for activity against brown patch, were applied to creeping bentgrass maintained at 0.16-inch cutting height, using a modified bicycle sprayer at 30 psi and a dilution rate of 5 gal per 1,000 sq ft. The experimental design was a randomized complete block with four replications. All plots measured 4 ft x 5 ft. Fungicide treatments were all applied on 21 Jun, then re-applied at recommended intervals on 2, 5, 12, and 20 Jul.
Brown patch symptoms were first observed on 27 Jun. Most products suppressed brown patch and dollar spot significantly in comparison to the unsprayed control on 6 Aug. No phytotoxicity symptoms were observed during the trial.
