How to get the best results from CAVALRY® WEATHERGUARD

CAVALRY® WEATHERGUARD is best applied as a preventative or as an early curative at the first sign of disease presence in turf. For best curative control performance, it is recommended CAVALRY® WEATHERGUARD is mixed with a systemic fungicide. As Chlorothalonil is a contact fungicide, application coverage is essential for achieving good disease control. CAVALRY® WEATHERGUARD should be applied in a good volume of water as directed by the label. CAVALRY® WEATHERGUARD provides up to 14 days protection. After 14 days, for continued protection re-apply CAVALRY® WEATHERGUARD or another fungicide. To maximise performance do not mow or irrigate treated turf until the lawn is thoroughly dry.

 

Improved Rainfastness Properties with CAVALRY® WEATHERGUARD

Once dry on the leaf, CAVALRY® WEATHERGUARD adheres strongly to leaves and has rainfast properties at least equal to the leading industry standards. If applied to wet leaves, good adhesion is also possible, since excellent performance has been observed, if CAVALRY® WEATHERGUARD is applied to plants that have heavy dew on them. This may be a useful method of obtaining some redistribution to the lower canopy of heavier ornamental crops.

Application Recommendations

Slowly invert container several times to ensure uniform mixture. Mix the required quantity of product with water in the spray tank with agitator operating. Thorough uniform coverage is essential for effective disease control and protection.
Use a sprayer designed to apply high volumes of water up to the point of run-off and matched to the host plant being sprayed. Set up and operate the sprayer to achieve even coverage throughout the crop canopy. Apply sufficient water to cover the treated plant to the point of run-off. Avoid excessive run-off. The required water volume may be determined by applying different test volumes, using different settings on the sprayer. In ornamental situations, the required dilute spray volume will change and the sprayer set up and operation may also need to be changed, as the crop grows.
