General Instructions
Mixing
Add the required amount of product to the partly-filled spray tank with the agitator in operation. Fill the tank with water, and continue agitation during spraying and after a stoppage.
Application
Application volume for leaf and crown diseases (Dollar Spot, Helminthosporium Disease, Grey Leaf Spot & Anthracnose) should be adequate to ensure thorough and even coverage of the turf leaves and penetration into the crowns. Ideal application volumes should be between 400 – 800 L/ha. For best results use coarse [Turbo Teejet* or AIXR Teejet* (11004 or 11005)] nozzles, at 5 km/h and 3 bar pressure. In higher cut turf (>15mm) a significant spray shielding effect can occur, impacting negatively on spray penetration and even coverage at low application volumes. Good control requires good coverage. Application should be made in sufficient water to ensure thorough coverage. Do not apply more than 3 applications of EMERALD per season.
Fungicide Resistance Warning
For fungicide resistance management EMERALD® Fungicide is a Group 29 fungicide. Some naturally occurring fungi resistant to the product and other Group 29 fungicides may exist through normal genetic variability in any fungal population. The resistant individuals can eventually dominate the fungal population if EMERALD or other Group 29 fungicides are used repeatedly. These resistant fungi will not be controlled by this product or other Group 29 fungicides, thus resulting in a reduction in efficacy and possible yield loss. Since occurrence of resistant fungi is difficult to detect prior to use, Colin Campbell (Chemicals) Pty Ltd. accepts no liability for any losses that may result from the failure of this product to control resistant fungi.
