| Abstract/Contents: | Discusses dry patch control, stating that "dry patch has presented itself on several occassions, often leading to disease occurrence, unsightly and bumpy greens and hours of labour [labor] being lost trying to treat the knock-on problems and re-wet the affected areas." Discusses the use of wetting agents to deal with dry patch, stating that "many wetting agents on the market today are multi-functional and...it is recommended you contact your regional agronomist to discuss further which wetting agents are right for your situation." Provides possible preventive mehtods as well as curative treatments. Concludes that "accompanying cultural practices such as spiking, watering in of the product and hand watering are every bit as important as the wetting agent." |
