GENERAL INFORMATION:
Protect DF Turf and Ornamental Fungicide is a dry flowable containing a coordination product of zinc ion and manganese ethylenebisdithiocarbamate, and is recommended for use as a spray for the control of many important plant diseases. When used according to directions, it provides very high fungicidal activity and can be safely used on both turf grasses and certain ornamentals. Protect DF provides control of most common turfgrass diseases and it is also effective in controlling major fungus diseases of certain ornamentals. Diseases of turf grasses and ornamentals can attack suddenly and unexpectedly causing severe damage and may even result in total loss of large areas of valuable turf grass and ornamental plants. The use of a regular protective spray program will minimize the risk of disease damage and can generally be accomplished with lower rates and less frequent fungicide applications. Once diseases have become established, higher rates of fungicide and more frequent applications are required to bring them under control. Follow a regular protective program for maximum product performance.
Tank mixable with most commonly used pesticides.

I am just a hobby bonsai grower, seeking an excellent fungicide to protect my various bonsai trees. Your product is highly recommended, but having to purchase a 6lb bag makes it very expensive for me. What is the shelf life of Protect DF? Await your reply. Thanks in advance.

The label doesn't mention anything regarding residential turf. Would this be appropriated for such application?
No, Clearys Protect DF is not labeled to be used on residential lawns. You could use Clearys 3336F instead.
Protect DF Fungicide is labeled for soil drench only on Peonies to treat Phytophthora Blight and Botrytis Blight. Apply in early spring and early fall, drenching soil arond plants as well as foliage. Promptly destroy all infected plant parts.
For a full list of diseases and tolerant ornamental plants refer to pages 7-9 on the product label.
