We recommend that you consult with your local cooperative extension office Master Gardener for an id on the fungus that is causing mushrooms in the lawn to determine the best product options for your needs.

For specific disease/fungal identification and timing, we recommend reaching out to your county extension office.
Garden Tech Daconil Fungicide Concentrate should be sprayed early in the morning or late in the evening when temperatures are coolest for the day. As long as the product has completely dried before temperatures reach 90 degrees, it should be fine.

Garden Tech Daconil Fungicide Concentrate does not target algae. Bio Advanced 2-in-1 Moss and Algae Killer RTS does target algae as directed on the product label.
There are a lot of articles that say that the active ingredient in Garden Tech Daconil Fungicide Concentrate, Chlorothalonil, is safe to be used on orchids. Since the product itself is not labeled for them, the only rate we can give is for ornamentals which is 2 1/4 tsp - 3 tbs per gallon.
We would recommend contacting a local orchid specialist/nursery or the Master Gardener with your County Extension Office for their recommendations.
Garden Tech Daconil Fungicide Concentrate is labeled to treat rust on ornamental flowers. Per the label, to control disease already present, apply this product on a 7 day schedule until disease pressure is eliminated. Then continue spraying on a 14 day schedule to prevent the disease from reoccurring. To prevent Rust Leaf Spot diseases, Anthracnose and Scab, begin applications at the first sign of spring budding. Please see the label for full application instructions.
