Goliath XP Fungicide

DIRECTIONS FOR USE:

PRODUCT USE RESTRICTIONS:

• Do not graze or feed clippings from treated turf areas to animals.
• Do not apply GOLIATH XP to turf by air.

PRODUCT USE PRECAUTIONS:

• GOLIATH XP has demonstrated some phytotoxic effects when mixed with products that are formulated as EC’s. These effects are enhanced if applications are made under cool, cloudy conditions and these conditions remain for several days following application. In addition, adjuvants that contain some form of silicone have also contributed to phytotoxicity.

MIXING INSTRUCTIONS:

To prepare spray solution, partially fill the spray tank with clean water and begin agitation. Add the specified amount of GOLIATH XP to the tank, allowing time for good dispersion, then add an adjuvant, if recommended.

If tank mixes are required, product should be added to the spray tank in the following order: GOLIATH XP, wettable granular or dry flowable formulations, wettable powders and flowable (aqueous suspensions) products.

Finish filling the tank to the desired volume to obtain the proper spray concentration. Maintain agitation throughout the spraying operation.

Do not allow spray mixture to stand overnight or for prolonged periods.

Make up only the amount of spray required for immediate use. Sprayers should be thoroughly cleaned immediately after application.

Do not use silicone-based products with GOLIATH XP due to possible phytotoxicity.

If spray-tank mixture is unsprayed for more than 18 hours (overnight), re-suspend product with agitation for 20 minutes.

GOLIATH XP is compatible with many commonly used fungicides, liquid fertilizers, herbicides, insecticides and biological control products. If tank mixes are desired, observe all directions, precautions and limitations on labeling of all products used.

Consult compatibility charts or your local or State turf authority for compatibility information. Do not combine GOLIATH XP in the spray tank with pesticides, surfactants, or fertilizers, unless compatibility charts or your own prior use has shown that the combination is physically compatible, effective, and non-injurious under your conditions of use. If physical compatibility is unknown, the following procedure should be followed.

Pour the recommended proportions of the products into a suitable container of water, mix thoroughly and allow to stand at least twenty (20) minutes, if the combination remains mixed or can be re-mixed readily, the mixture is considered physically compatible.

SPECIFIC USE DIRECTIONS:

GOLIATH XP is recommended for control of certain pathogens causing foliar, stem, and root diseases, including leaf and stem blights, leaf spots, patch diseases, mildews, anthracnose, fairy rings, molds, and rusts of turfgrass plants. GOLIATH XP may be used to control certain diseases on turf in golf courses, lawns and landscape areas around residential, institutional, public, commercial and industrial buildings, parks, recreational areas and athletic fields.

Application Directions:

GOLIATH XP should be applied prior to disease development. Mix GOLIATH XP with the required amount of water and apply as a dilute spray application in 2-4 gals, of water per 1000 sq. ft.

Apply GOLIATH XP at rates and timings as described in this label.

Repeat applications at specified intervals for as long as required. For spot treatments, use 1.5 fl. oz. GOLIATH XP per 1 to 2 gal. of water. Do not apply more than 8.1 gal. product/acre/year (23.75 fl. oz. product/ 1000 sq. ft./year). Applications may be made by ground only.

For use with soil injection applications:

GOLIATH XP may be applied through a liquid fungicide injector for the control of ectotrophic root diseases such as summer patch and take-all patch. Use GOLIATH XP only in liquid injection equipment specifically designated for pesticide use.

Apply GOLIATH XP at 1.5-3 fl. oz. per 1000 sq. ft. Spray carrier volume should fall within 30-150 gals, of water per 1000 sq. ft. Injection hole spacing of 1 inch by 1 inch is recommended for optimum control. Injection depth should be no greater than 2 inches. One inch depth is recommended for optimum results. Application should follow disease control strategies used for normal broadcast spray programs.

For use in the establishment of turfgrass from seed or in overseeding of dormant turfgrass:

GOLIATH XP may be used for control of certain turfgrass diseases associated with turfgrass establishment from seed. GOLIATH XP may also be used during overseeding of dormant turfgrass.

GOLIATH XP may be safely applied before or after seeding or at seedling germination and emergence to ryegrass, bentgrass, bluegrass, and fescue turfgrass types. Optimum application timing is during seeding. See Application Directions section.

Rate Ranges: Use the shorter specified application interval and/or use the higher specified rate when prolonged favorable disease conditions exist.
