    Q
    How much Southern Ag Liquid Copper Fungicide do I mix with a 2-gallon sprayer for turf grass?
    The product label specifies 1 pint Liquid Copper Fungicide per 1,000-square feet in 5 gallons of water.
    A

    You are correct. If you are treating for algae in turfgrass, the Southern Ag Liquid Copper Fungicide label states that you should mix 16 oz. of the product with 5 gallons of water and apply the mixed solution over 1,000 sq feet of the the lawn. You will need to determine how many square feet you are treating in order to know how much product to purchase. The water is important as this acts as the carrier for the active ingredient to absorb into the soil.

    Q
    I have stinkhorns in mulch. What is the ratio mixture of Southern AG Liquid Copper Fungicide to water I need to spray and how often
    Also I never had problem before. Is it possible it came with mulch I received last spring from lowes?
    A

    Southern AG Liquid Copper Fungicide is not labeled for mushrooms.  Stinkhorns are often first introduced into a garden in organic materials (e.g., soils and mulches) that contain microscopic hyphae (i.e., fungal threads) of stinkhorn fungi.  No fungicide treatments or other methods are available to prevent stinkhorns from appearing in a garden.  Removing organic matter (e.g., mulch) or reducing soil moisture may reduce the number of stinkhorns that appear.  However, these strategies are unlikely to eradicate stinkhorn fungi.

    Q
    What can be used on bare patches of my bermuda lawn that have black algae growing? The algae is not spreading to the blades of the bermuda but only growing in the bare patches.
    A

    Alot of algae and moss problems are caused due unhealthy turf conditions. Knowing the soild conditions for your lawn is crucial to planning the most effective treatment. The first step is to have a soil test done through your local county extension office or with a home test kit . These results will tell you how much fertilizer is neccessary to bring your lawn to healthy levels and to determine proper lime and fertilizer needs. For most turfgrasses, the pH should be 6.0 to 6.5.

    Cultural Control Methods suchs as improving drainage, aerating, removing any areas of soil infected with algae and replacing with new soil, and avoiding over irrigating or water buildup need to be addressed in order for fungicides or algaecides to be successful. Southern Ag Liquid Copper Fungcide and Bonide MossMax are two products labeled for treating algae in residential lawns. 

    We would recommend contacting your Cooperative Extension office in your county for assistance in identifying the disease/algae in your lawn. They are the best resource since they are local to your region. After speaking with them and having the disease identified, we will be happy to help with a correct recommendation.

  • Asked by Bryan from Wa
    03/27/2019
    Q
    What is the application rate for Southern AG Liquid Copper Fungicide for a non-fruiting plum tree?
    Have a tall ornamental plum tree (no fruit). It's just got blossoms on it now. When it grows, the leaves get holes all over them. Consequently, parts of the tree do not now have blossoms. Your label says 9 gallons for a tree my size but it doesn't give me the mix ratio other than 1-6 tsp. Not sure how to mix the solution. Can you please let me know?
    A

    Southern AG Liquid Copper Fungicide is not labeled for application to plum trees so we cannot recommend it for this use.  The first thing you would need to do is to get the problem identified.  Holes in leaves could be caused by an insect, not a fungus and a fungicide would not affect insects.   It would be a good idea to contact your local cooperative extension office and ask to speak to the master gardener on staff, or you can contact your local department of agriculture to seek advice. These professionals may ask for pictures of your trees, samples of the foliage, or they may come to your property to inspect the trees
