Control Moisture Most foliar pathogens of turf require extended periods of leaf wetness in order to cause disease. Turf managers understand the role moisture plays in disease development and that controlling leaf wetness is a key to disease control. A New Tool DewCure is a unique, proprietary product developed specifically to reduce excess leaf moisture caused by dew, guttation, rain, irrigation, and frost. Control is achieved by inhibiting moisture accumulation and by promoting faster drying following the introduction of moisture. DewCure is formulated to adhere directly to the leaf surface, providing long-lasting moisture inhibition. Once bonded, DewCure will not wash off as surfactants do, but instead will cover the leaf with a water-resistant coating that is durable once dry. Benefits of reducing excess leaf moisture with DewCure™ Moisture management in the foliar microenvironment to reduce disease pressure Suppresses dew and moisture accumulation Faster drying following rain or irrigation Light frost control Faster meltdown after heavy frost Cleaner mowing — less clumping Drier playing conditions for both tournament and everyday play Turf Applications Apply DewCure at 1.5 gallons per 100 gallons of spray solution (1.5% volume/volume). DewCure is suitable for application at any time of the year, but maximum benefit is achieved when DewCure is applied to slow-growing turf, especially during autumn, winter and early spring. Because DewCure forms a water-resistant coating on the leaf surface, mowing frequency and rate of new leaf emergence (growth rate) may influence the duration of dew control.
