    Worked amazingly well on my Tall Fescue lawn!

    By Anonymous on 07/14/2013

    Verified Purchase

    I've had lawn disease problems for a couple years now (since i've reseeded the lawn and actually had a nice lush turf), killing of large patches of the lawn. From what i can tell now after a lot of research, it's leaf spot, gray leaf spot, fusarium blight or similar. This spring (before all the research), i tried to fend it off by using the Bayer fungicide from Home Depot, applying on May 1 and June 1. In June, we had 10"+ of rain, mostly in the evening or at night here in the DC area, and i saw the same areas start to brown up again, and it was spreading fast. So i did a ton of research, and after finding the NC State turf files site and their ratings of fungicides (http://www.turffiles.ncsu.edu/Diseases/Default.aspx#IS004047), i bought a bag of this Heritage. I also discovered that the Bayer fungicide's active ingredient, propiconazole, is not very highly rated in its effectiveness compared to azoxystrobin (Heritage), or thiophanate-methyl (which is in products like Cleary's 3336, and the Scott's fungicide, although a lower dosage). I applied it with my Scott's deluxe edge guard rotary spreader set at 4. By the time i applied it, it had been about 10-14 days and the fungus had spread quickly. I also had a bag of the Scott's fungicide and spread that a couple days later. From my research, using fungicides from different chemical classes is helpful to not only kill the fungus, but to prevent resistance build up. Well, a week later, the lawn started coming back, and after 10 days now, it is on its way to recovery! I honestly didn't have high hopes, especially since we've been getting more evening rain the last week, but the treatment has worked. I plan on putting another treatment, this time of the 3336 after 14 days to hopefully finish the job. a couple pieces of advice to people: do your research! you have to make sure you're not overusing the same class of fungicide or the fungus will build resistance. For example, the Heritage should not be used more than 2 TIMES a season, at most 3 if you're rotating it with other classes. anyway, i plan on using this in a preventative dosage next year along with the 3336 to hopefully stave off the fungus from starting in the first place. Yes, it's expensive, but compared to the time it and effort it takes to reseed your lawn, it's well worth it!

    Dying Lawn

    By Ray on 07/06/2010

    Verified Purchase

    I was cautious when I first saw this product, but a neighbor of mine recommended it to me. I wasn't too keen on the high price tag for only 30lbs. I bought it anyway, applied it and waited. In about a week and a half I started to see a difference in my lawn. In two weeks the brown spots or dollar spots (don't know which fungus I had) had almost vanished with a few visible spots here and there (I noticed the spots others might not be able to see). The only drawback is the price. If it wasn't so expensive I would have purchased two bags for my front and backyard. I guess I will try the cheaper Bayer brand fungicide to see if has the same affect. Great shipping as well, got it 3 or 4 days after ordering.

    Worked Well for Summer Patch

    By John on 10/23/2010

    Had 4 yr old sod with summer patch covering almost the entire yard in Michigan. Applied using Scotts speedygreen broadcast spreader at 3 3/4 setting and within weeks almost all of the brown rings were gone and the grass will filling back in those areas. Reapplied to those areas where it was still a little brown and those came back as well. Only downside is the cost, but I guess that it's better than a couple thousand to replace the sod.

    Not so fast

    By Richard on 09/13/2012

    Verified Purchase

    I had lawn disease for several years in a row that was called "red thread" which was scattered over 50% of my lawn along with "brown patch" over another 20%. Both diseases were verified in the samples that were tested my local state (CT) agricultural experiment station. They recommeded a fungicide, less irrigation, thatching, and replanting in the early fall. I would do that and my lawn would recover and look great again by late fall. Unfortunately, this happened every year. Early this year, I bought 3 bags of Heritage G and diligently followed the instructions to the letter. Rather than do the entire lawn I only did the areas that went bad each year. (no problems under trees or other shaded areas so those were skipped.) By mid summer, both diseases were back and I was greatly disappointed. Even applying it more than the recommended amount wouldn's stop it and now I'm thatching and planting again. This product did nothing for me. Richard

    3 types of fungus in tifway 419

    By Terry on 06/21/2011

    Verified Purchase

    In Arizona having Bermuda tifway 419, it's always got some type of fungus going on.  This is also because of our fantastic soil that takes a lot of water to get wet, yet stays wet longer, but drys concrete on the top layer.  Add the queen of thatcher maker of grass to that and you got 1-2-3 types of fungus happening.  Heritage G nailed it.  Took about a week to see the difference.  But be WARNED "Do Not Use" it 2x in a row.  Rotate to Subdue and the. 3 hit it with Compass or other.  Fungus strains mutate & will become resistant to that chemical.  I had used Spectracide for 2 years and now it will not even touch any fungus I get.  So I learned the hard way. But Heritage being broad spectrum & not knowing what you got is what I would hit it with the first go around DEFINITELY!

    Heritage G Fungicide

    By Anonymous on 08/01/2013

    Verified Purchase

    I purchased the 30 lb bag of Heritage G for treating my lawn, St. Augusting grass. After two treatments the fungus was gone. If you want to stop the spread of fungus and provide grass with an opportuntiy to defeat existing infections use heritage G. I can highly recommend the Heritage G, although it may cost a little more than other fungicides.

    It works!

    By Tom on 08/26/2012

    Verified Purchase

    I have been fighting lawn fungus with the various preperations available from the large makers of such. Great expectations were dashed when nothing happened, nothing. I found the Heritage G on line and decided to try this product. Much to my great satisfaction and joy, it works! The lawn began to return to its former self, thick, and green Try Heritage G if your lawn is suffering from this condition.

    So Far So Good

    By Danny on 07/26/2014

    Verified Purchase

    Lawn is already showing steady recovery from "Take All" rot and other fungus issues within 1 week of the application. Well worth the $ as this item works as advertised. Made a call to the manufacturer and their support and assistance was very helpful in selecting the settings for the Scott's rotary spreader. Do My Own Pest Control delivered as promised and even matched a lower online price from a competing firm with zero hesitation. Will be using these folks for the long term!

    Heritage G Fungicide - 30

    By Mat on 09/01/2011

    Verified Purchase

    This is the second year we have used Heritage G Fungicide to combat "Brown Patch" in our Tall Fescu lawn. Heritage worked wonders in eradicating "Brown Patch" and preventing additional problems. Although expensive, $109.00 for 30 pounds, it is well worth it when compared to the alternative of repairing and reseeding an entire lawn.

    Appears to have halted Brown Patch in centipede lawn

    By M on 06/05/2012

    Verified Purchase

    Lawns in our neighborhood (predominately centipede and St. Augustine) have been ravaged by brown patch. I was hesitant to drop $100 on a bag of fungicide but I'm glad I did. After three weeks, no new areas in our yard and the previous spots are now filling back in. Meanwhile, other lawns continue to worsen. This was enough to treat front and back yard (.6 acre lot). Bag says to retreat in 4-6 weeks and alternate with another fungicide.

    Purchased this to both prevent and hopefully cure Pythium Blight /cottony mycelium growth in early spring of 2012. Didn't see any results. Given the expense, I can't recommnend this product if you're dealing with the same lawn disease that I have.

    Found the solution to years of frustration

    By Gopack on 07/14/2014

    Went onto North Carolina State's website to get advice for fungus in the NC humid summers and they were spot on. Heritage G worked immediately, was easy to apply and saved my fescue lawn from the increasing fungus resistance to both the Bayer and Scott's treatment. I am over 14 days into the treatment and still looking good. I estimate that I will need one more application to carry me safely through the summer. I will no longer be wasting hundreds of dollars on big box single active ingredient treatments as the fungus is smarter than than.

    Professional Results

    By Alan on 01/27/2016

    I had problems with fungus, so I hired a nationally known lawn care company for 18 months to fertilize, do weed control and stop the fungus, when it appeared. They were always late with the treatment. Now I spray at the first sign and don't lose any spots, before the chemical works.

    Heritage G Fungicide Granular

    By Tom on 06/24/2014

    Verified Purchase

    This has been a good product for fungus control. I have tried the box store products, but those products did not stop the spread of the Red thread my lawn gets annually. The Heritage worked well last year and appears to have stopped its growth this year. Cons are it is very expensive (lose one star) and recommend two applications to be sure you have knocked the fungus out.

    Heritage G Fungicide

    By Anonymous on 07/22/2013

    Verified Purchase

    I use this product to control pythium on fescue turf in inland southern California where it gets very hot. I applied Heritage G after the pythium started and it stopped the fungus and the lawn is recovering. Excellent results, fast acting, easy to apply, I used the highest rate. Just wished it would last longer.

    much cheaper than hiring a lawn service company

    By Dave on 07/06/2017

    For those who balk at the price, a nationally renown lawn service company charges in the $80-$90 range per application of this product. By your second DIY application, you will have already saved compared to hiring a lawn service company to apply for you.

    By David on 07/07/2017

    I applied the product 3 weeks ago. I applied more than recommended and the fungus in my lawn has only gotten worse. Guess I'm going back to Scotts! Sorry, not worth the money.

    Heritage G Fungicide

    By Bud on 06/21/2017

    I applied a 30# bag of Heritage G to my tall fescue back lawn of about 10K square feet, which, due to abundant shade and limited air circulation, has annual summer fungus issues. After the 1st week I noticed the brown patches turning green again, however by day 21 the brown patches were back, and seemingly with a vengeance. I retreated the back lawn at day 25 with Cleary's 3336 DG as an alternate to the Heritage G (we'll see how this product works out). A week after my initial back lawn treatment, I applied 25# of Heritage G to my tall fescue front lawn of about 8K square feet. As of day 15 the front lawn has recovered nicely. Although the front lawn doesn't typically have the difficult fungus concerns as does the back lawn. Being a first-time user of Heritage G Fungicide, and seeing as it worked generally satisfactorily, my biggest overall concerns would be the price and its effectiveness. Even though shipping is free through DoMyOwn, and the arrival of the product is timely for the most part (there was one minor hiccup on the 2nd bag I ordered around a holiday), I was quoted a much lower price for Heritage G by a local merchant after I had already bought from DoMyOwn. In conclusion, my 3 stars rating is based primarily on the fact that the product didn't match the 28 days window before re-treatment was required, and, the overall cost. Perhaps the Cleary's will do better, &/or I will try a different fungicide alternative next time.

    It works!

    By Luis on 08/06/2014

    Verified Purchase

    I was very hesitant to fork out $100 for this product but after reading so many good reviews I had to give it a try. I am so glad I did. I have St. Augustine grass and with all this central Florida rain the fungus was spreading and FAST. At first I didn't notice any difference but I must say after 10 days my lawn has really started to come around. The brown spots are disappearing and my lawn is finally starting to look green and beautiful again. I wish I could say the same for both of my neighbors!

    Heritage G Fungicide - Order, Delivery

    By Central on 09/03/2015

    I was pleased with the ability to research fungicides on the site, to talk with people knowledgeable about the products and with the selection I made. Delivery was on time and the packing was good. There was no damage to the Heritage G bag. The bag was good quality and the product had an excellent appearance and very uniform size which made it work well with my spreader. I will not know if the product is effective until a couple of weeks, but Heritage is known to work as well as any on brown patch in our area.
