Pillar G Intrinsic Granular Fungicide is a combination of Insignia fungicide and Trinity fungicide active ingredients in a granular form. The combination of these two very effective active ingredients will deliver the best disease control on many of the diseases and problems that challenge turf management. Several diseases include anthracnose, dollar spot, leaf spots, patch diseases (large patch, brown patch, summer patch, take-all patch), and snow molds.
Pillar G Intrinsic Granular Fungicide also provides benefits in plant health. Turf that is treated with Pillar G Intrinsic fungicide improves the health of the plant in its stress management, with drought, moisture, plus its temperature limits. Also, treated turf has shown enlarged root mass and length. Pillar G is formed on a granule of clay which provides excellent spreading features due to its thickness and uniform size. This makes the active ingredient move quickly off of the granule after watering or when raining so that it can protect the turfgrass shortly after the application.

General Information
Diseases Controlled and How to Treat Them
| Disease | Application Interval (days) | Comments |
| Anthracnose | 14 to 28 | Use preventively. Begin applications when conditions are favorable for fungal infection, prior to disease symptom development. |
| Bentgrass dead spot | 28 | Use preventively. Begin applications when conditions are favorable for fungal infection, prior to disease symptom development. |
| Bermudagrass decline | 28 | Aids in control of bermudagrass decline when integrated with appropriate cultural practices such as raised mowing height, proper fertilization, and core aeration. Make 1 application in the spring following greenup and a second application in the fall when air temperatures remain above 80 degrees F and humidity is 75% or higher. |
| Brown patch | 14 to 28 | Apply when conditions are favorable for disease development. |
| Brown ring patch | 14 to 28 | Apply when early yellow ring development is symptomatic. Provide short irrigation cycle directly following treatment to move fungicide through thatch. |
| Dollar spot | 14 to 28 | Apply when conditions are favorable for disease development. Ring symptoms can take 2 to 3 weeks to disappear following application. For optimum results, apply a soil wetting agent to the intended treatment area prior to Pillar G Intrinsic application. |
| Fairy ring | 14 to 28 | Apply as soon as possible after fairy ring symptom development. Fairy ring symptoms can take 2 to 3 weeks to disappear following application. For optimum results, apply a soil wetting agent to the intended treatment area prior to Pillar G Intrinsic application. |
| Fusarium patch (Pink snow mold) | 28 | Make 1 application in late fall just prior to snow cover. For optimum control under severe disease pressure, make application of Trinity fungicide, Insignia SC Intrinsic brand fungicide, or Insignia fungicide 14 days prior to Pillar G Intrinsic application. |
| Gray leaf spot | 14 to 28 | Use preventively. Begin applications when conditions are favorable for fungal infection, prior to disease symptom development. |
| Gray snow mold/Typhula blight | 28 | Make 1 application in late fall just prior to snow cover. For optimum control under severe disease pressure, make application of Trinity, Insignia SC Intrinsic brand fungicide or Insignia 14 days prior to Pillar G Intrinsic application. |
| Large patch | 14 to 28 | Make 1 to 2 applications in the fall when conditions are favorable for disease development, repeat in spring prior and following greenup. |
| Leaf spot | 14 to 28 | Apply when conditions are favorable for disease development. |
| Melting out | 14 to 28 | Apply when conditions are favorable for disease development. |
| Necrotic ring spot | 28 | Apply when soil temperatures reach 60 degrees F in early spring to summer and continue at 28-day intervals under conditions favorable for disease development. Provide additional irrigation following application. |
| Pink patch | 14 to 28 | Apply when conditions are favorable for disease development, when night temperatures are 60 degrees F to 70 degrees F, and in periods of higher rainfall. |
| Pink snow mold | 28 | Make 1 application in late fall just prior to snow cover. For optimum control under severe disease pressure, make application of Trinity, Insignia SC Intrinsic brand fungicide or Insignia 14 days prior to Pillar G Intrinsic application. |
| Powdery mildew | 14 to 28 | Use preventively. Begin applications when conditions are favorable for fungal infection, normally under prolonged moist and humid conditions. Apply prior disease symptom development for best control. |
| Pythium rood dysfunction | 14 | Use preventively. Begin applications when conditions are favorable for fungal infection, prior to disease symptom development. DO NOT apply more than two strobilurin-based fungicides sequentially prior to rotation to a different mode-of action. |
| Rapid blight | 14 to 28 | Apply when conditions are favorable for disease development which occurs normally on salinity stresses grasses. Occurs most commonly on cool season grasses used under overseeded conditions. Begin applications in fall and follow with spring applications as needed. DO NOT apply more than two strobilurin-based fungicides sequentially prior to rotation to a different mode-of action. |
| Red thread | 14 to 28 | Apply when conditions are favorable for disease development. |
| Rhizoctonia leaf or sheath spot | 28 | Apply when conditions are favorable for disease development. Rhizoctonia infection can occur under warm, humid conditions on both cool-season turfgrass and warm-season turfgrass. This disease has been associated with localized dry spots, and necrotic (brown) ring symptoms can form. The use of a wetting agent can aid in recovery from dry spots. |
| Rust | 14 to 28 | Apply when conditions are favorable for disease development |
| Summer patch | 28 | Apply when conditions are favorable for disease development. Initiate applications in spring when soil temperatures reach 60 degrees F to 70 degrees F at a 2-inch soil depth, or as dictated by local recommendations. Repeat application at 28-day intervals. |

Good on St. Augustine Floratram grass
By Alan on 06/15/2018
This fungicide is really working great. With all the rain the past month, the grass is growing like crazy. I added some manganese and magnesium to the regular lawn fertilizer application and it has never been more dense and green. If not for the Pillar G Intrinsic Fungicide, it would have big spots of dying grass. It did every year before this year.

Saving money on Pillar-G
By Bobby on 10/26/2015
I know the Heritage G product requires only a very light watering
Per the product label for Pillar G: Applications made to control root and soilborne diseases such as fairy ring, Pythium root dysfunction, summer patch and take-all patch required addititional irrigation to move the product into the soil.

Would like to find a different fungicide in a different classification than Heritage G that also is applied by granular.
Pillar G and Heritage both have a Group 11 classified ingredient so while generally they would not be the best products to rotate to protect against fungicide and plant resistance, Pillar has an added active ingredient that allows you to do so. A better option would be a Group 1 fungicide like Clearys 3336G Fungicide.

Pets can return to areas that have been treated with Pillar G Intrinsic Granular Fungicide 4-6 hours after application.

For best results, Pillar G Intrinsic Granular Fungicide should be watered in right after application when treating for pythium root dysfunction, summer patch, and take-all patch.

my dogs seem to sneeze when they go outside every since we put in a new lawn and they put Pillar G Fungicide on the lawn
Pillar G Fungicide is safe for pets after it has dried. It should be watered in after application.
