Hey New England. Heads up from Dr. Inguagiato. #Pythium
Seeing a lot of pythium blight in the region with the high night temps and humidity. Particularly where water sits from recent rain. Phosphites ok most years for New England but this stretch of weather is calling for true pythium fungicides.

A dreamy morning for #turfgrasspathologists and an indicator for turf managers of your high pressure disease areas. Humidity and raised temperature levels.

ABWs on the move
Courses in Virginia are already seeing ABW on the move and the pest has now been confirmed in North Carolina. The only way to know for sure if you have them is by scouting 👉
