  • Asked by Annette from Cypress, Ca
    08/23/2017
    Q
    What is the mixing ratio of Monterey Garden Phos Systemic Fungicide to do a soil drench for avocado tree with root rot?
    A

    When using Monterey Garden Phos Systemic Fungicide for root rot on avocado trees, the methods to treat are either a tree injection or a foliar spray. For a tree injection, you will inject trees at spring flush maturity. Repeat treatment in February or March. Drill holes 3/16 inch (5 mm) in diameter and 1 inch (25 mm) to 2 inches (50 mm) deep with slight downward angle in trunk. Place syringes in the main trunk of the tree and space evenly around the circumference of the trunk. Suitable for use with Chemjet tree injectors, Ag-murf gun, or hydraulic tree injection. Do not prune back trees before injection process as burning of new growth may occur. Do not inject trees in winter months. Do not cut back the canopy of injected trees. Do not add any other material, other than water , to AGRI-FOS Systemic Fungicide by trunk injection. Do not inject more liquid in a lesser number of syringes than directed. The rates for application are as follows:

    Skeletal trees 1st year: ¼ fl. oz. undiluted product per yard of canopy diameter.
    Other situations: 1/8 fl. oz. diluted with ½ fl. oz. of water per yard of canopy diameter.

    For a foliar spray, the mixing rate is 1/3 fl oz per gallon of water. You will spray to run off at 2 - 2½ gallons of spray solution per adult tree. Start applications in spring, up to 4 applications a year at two-month intervals. Ensure thorough coverage.

    Q
    Should you soak tomato plant seedlings in agri-fos before planting?
    On the Paul Parent Garden Club radio show, he promotes soaking tomato plant seedlings in a solution of agri-foe to give them a head-start against disease, then treating with a similar solution, but in both spray and root application every two weeks or so. What's your take?
    A
    Agri-Fos is both a curative and preventative treatment and can be applied as a soil drench, foliar spray, soil incorporation, bare root dip, or a seedling soak.

  • Asked by Peter from Austin, Tx
    04/20/2018
    Q
    Can Monterey Garden Phos Systemic Fungicide be used to control Red Tip Photinia leaf spots by applying it to the roots?
    The plants are too tall to spray.
    A

    Monterey Garden Phos Systemic Fungicide is labeled to treat Red Tip Photinia and other ornamental plants, but it is not labeled to control Entomosporium, which is the usually the cause of leaf spot on photinia. For diseases listed on the product label, you can do soil drench applications: apply 1/8 tsp. per gallon of water and apply each 25 gallons of solution to an area of 100 sq. ft. Follow application with irrigation. Repeat as required. Limit of one application per month.

    If you have entomosporium leaf spot, then we recommend Fung-Onil Fungicide Concentrate instead. This should be applied as a topical spray. Be sure you are incorporating good sanitation practices as well, including cleaning up leaf litter, thinning out branches as needed to reduce moisture retention, and removing heavily infested plants. Do not plant infested photinia in your landscape. Be sure to clean pruning equipment after each use to avoid spreading diseases.

    Q
    I'm looking for a product that can be applied as a soil drench to control fire blight on ornamental pears.
    A

    Unfortunately, there really are no products that are labeled for a soil drench application for fire blight.  A product like Monterey Garden Phos Systemic Fungicide can be used as a foliar spray.  There is a helpful article you can find here with more information on treating for fire blight.

  • Asked by Rick from Bear, De

    Q
    Will Monterey Agri-Fos Systemic Fungicide control the seridium cankor on my leyland cypress trees?
    I have 14 leyland cypress trees that became infected last year with seridium cankor. A tree expert examined my trees. The trees are 25 ft. tall. Thanks for the help.
    A

    Multiple university studies show that there are no current known fungicide treatments that are effective for controlling seridium canker in Leyland Cypress. Rather, good cultural practices and planting disease-resistant plants are recommended. Leyland Cypress have a shallow root system, so they will be more susceptible to disease when under drought stress. It is also important to prune any infected branches and to sanitize pruning tools after use. Here is more information from the Kent State Cooperative Extension about Leyland Cypress in your area.

    Q
    Will Monterey Garden Phos Systemic Fungicide work on an orange tree with yellowing leaves?
    I have an orange tree and was told this would help with yellowing leaves. The tree is 4 feet tall with a 3-1/2" trunk diameter. How much product per gallon should I use and what is the frequency?
    A

    Monterey Garden Phos Systemic Fungicide can be applied as a foliar spray to mature citrus trees at 1 tsp. per gallon of water. When conditions favor disease, spray trees to runoff. Ensure even coverage. Do not apply at high temperatures (above 95ºF) particularly if humidity is low or to moisture-stressed trees.

    Q
    Can I use Monterey Agri-Fos for the rust on potted plumeria?
    The potted plumerias are in big pots making it impossible to move and are closed to hibiscus on the ground that is why I cannot spray them.
    A

    Monterey Agri-Fos Systemic Fungicide is not actually labeled to treat for rust. A better option would be the Bonide Neem Oil RTU or Concentrate.
