Heritage Fungicide Approved in Calif.

Heritage G is a systemic strobilurin fungicide in a granular formulation, and specifically formulated for controlling disease up to a 28-day window on turfgrasses including golf courses, sod farms, athletic fields, residential lawns, commercial lawns and other areas.

Syngenta's Heritage G fungicide has received registration for use in the state of California. It features the carrier DG-Lite, which allows it to disperse under minimal water requirements, even a heavy dew.

Features and benefits of Heritage G include:
- Controls many turf diseases, including brown patch, red thread, Pythium, Anthracnose, gray leaf spot, snow mold, take-all patch, leaf spot, summer patch and necrotic ring spot
- A root absorption method which helps reduce accumulation of the product granules on grass leaf blades
- A granular formulation that allows maintenance with a fungicide application program even when weather conditions prohibit spraying, or when smaller spot treatments are more convenient
- High solubility of the DG-Lite carrier that allows the active ingredient to quickly and thoroughly reach the leaves
- The DG-Lite carrier virtually eliminates granule pickup into mower clippings baskets, product residue on shoes or golf balls and granule ''washaway'' during heavy rains
- Uptake by the roots, crown and xylem; systemic movement allows the product to reach new growth

As with all products, it is important to read and follow label instructions when using Heritage G.
