Disease Control in Nurseries (Field) and Landscape Plantings <br />1. USE DORADO IN A PREVENTATIVE DISEASE CONTROL PROGRAM. To determine <br />the use directions for controlling a disease on an ornamental plant species, select <br />the plant species in Table 1. The number in parentheses following the plant spe- <br />cies refers you to the disease(s) controlled in Table 2. Find the disease in Table 2. <br />The letter in brackets following the disease refers you to the application regime <br />in Table 3. <br />2. Allow spray to dry before overhead irrigation is applied. <br />3. Optimum benefit of Dorado is obtained when used in conjunction with sound <br />disease management practices. <br />General Recommendations <br />Dorado may be used at rates of 2-24 fl. oz./100 gals. water for control of diseases of <br />ornamental plant species (see Tables 1, 2, and 3). <br />NOTE: For outdoor uses, you can apply up to 5.4 gallons of Dorado/acre/crop/calendar <br />year. <br />For general disease control in landscapes, apply 6-8 fl. oz./100 gals. water every 21 days. <br />For best control, begin Dorado applications before disease development. <br />Note: Plant tolerances to Dorado have been found acceptable for the specific genera <br />and species of plants listed under the Directions for Use. Other plant species may <br />be sensitive to Dorado and diseases other than those listed may not be controlled. <br />Before using Dorado on plants or for diseases that are not listed in the Directions for <br />Use, test Dorado on a small scale basis first. Do not apply Dorado to African violets, <br />begonias, Boston fern, or geraniums. Apply the recommended rates for a particular <br />type of disease, i.e., rust, powdery mildew, etc., and evaluate for phytotoxicity and <br />disease control prior to widespread use. <br />
