Blue Mold Sighted In N.C. Farms
Blue mold is present in
North Carolina. The disease
was identified on two farms
in Columbus County on April
14 and on one in Robeson
County on April 15. Please
note the following.
Massive sporulation was
noted in both beds in
Columbus County. Weather
conditions this past Monday
were favorable for spore
production, movement, and
infection. All growers that
have not started treating
their beds should begin to do
so immediately as the plants
approach the dime to
quarter size. Those with
larger plants should con
tinue treatment application
on a once or twice a week
basis (depending upon
weather conditions) and
continue until transplanting
to the field is complete.
Fungicides containing
ferbam (black material)
are suggested for small
plants. Those containing
zineb, maneb, or metiram
(white materials) are not as
safe but more effective, and,
therefore, are suggested for
larger plants.
Operation “T.T.8.” -
short for “Treat Those
Beds” - is a Campaign
designed to encourage all
growers to follow the
preventive program.
Correct use should result in
production of an abundant
supply of healthy tran
splants and may reduce the
chance of a field outbreak.
THE CHOWAN HERALD
fillips
The final step of the Cam
paign is to destroy plants in
old bed site when tran
spanting to the field is
complete.
Several field outbreaks of
blue mold have occurred in
both Florida and Georgia.
Recent reports from
Georgia suggest that the
disease has become
systematic (has gone inside
plants) and has caused
severe stunting and some
bud kill. Some growers with
high incidence of systematic
blue mold are plowing up
and planting over.
North Carolina growers
should consider field control
methods. Ridomil, applied

as a preplant incorporated
treatment at one to two
quarts per acre, flue-cured,
and two quarts for Burley,
provides full season control.
The best way to apply the
material is to spray on
broadcast, followed by
discing and bedding up.
Some growers that applied
multi-purpose chemicals are
spraying material over bed
and incorporating with a
rolling cultivator or by re
bedding.
Growers that did not use
Ridomil should “tool up” for
field spraying. Fungicides
containing maneb (Manzate
200, Dithane M-22 Special,
and Dithane M-45) and
strepthomycin (Agri-mycin
17 and Agri-Strep D) are
effective. These materials
are mixed with water at the
rate of 1 pound per 100
gallons and applied in spray
form one or two time each
week to give full coverage.
The first spray should be
applied about 1 to 2 weeks
following transplanting and
repeated once a week until
the threat of a field outbreak
has passed.
