What SUBDUE MAXX offers you:

• A highly effective, economical solution for Pythium in all turf species
• Protection of germinating seedlings during overseeding with high turf safety
• The combination of fast absorption and even systemic movement as well as contact action in soil, resulting in full plant protection
• MAXX technology allows for excellent tank mix compatibility with other fungicides and foliar fertilisers
• Low odour, non-staining formulation

Pythium control

To achieve great results, accurate application is important.
SUBDUE MAXX is an excellent choice to use preventatively or early curatively during high infection risk periods.  
The fast absorption and systemic movement combines to ensure true “stopping power” for early curative Pythium Leaf Blight situations. For Pythium Root Rot a preventative plan is the only safe approach. SUBDUE MAXX is rapid and responsive treating problems before they are actually seen. Making a good start to the season should see turf through summer without a problem. Remember though that Pythium control depends heavily upon regular population control throughout the summer. Consecutive days of rain and high temperatures (25-40°C) will quickly advance Pythium populations.
Example: A sound strategy is therefore an early start with continued action. 

• Late September – SUBDUE MAXX @ 3 to 3.5 L/ha
• Late October – SUBDUE MAXX @ 3 to 3.5 L/ha
• Late November – PREVICUR N (600G/L) @ 5 L/ha 
• Before Christmas – HEADWAY MAXX @ 2-3 L/ha
• Late January – ALIETTE @ 12,5 kg/ha

Give all applications a light wash in within 1 hour after spraying (6 to 10 mm).
