The blue mold on the North Carolina trans plants are suspected to be RIDOMIL insensi tive since the grower in North Carolina had used RIDOMIL on his plant beds. At the present time (except for the two plant beds), the blue mold was observed only on the North Carolina transplants. For this rea son, we are recommend ing that the transplants that came from North Carolina be destroyed so that the amount of blue mold inoculum will be reduced. Every grower should start spraying their tobacco (beds and Held) with a protective fungi cide. We still recom mend that you use RIDOMIL preplant, but then spray the field transplants with a pro tective fungicide. At the present time, the only labeled material we have as a protectant is. DITHANE DF (State label). DITHANE DF should be sprayed at 1.5 lbs per acre (small plants) 2 lbs per acre (larger plants). You should apply this pro tectant spray every 5 to 10 days, or reapply after a heavy rain. DITHANE DF is a protectant so spray coverage of the entire plant is extremely important. It is also important for every grower to protect their plant beds. Spray the plant beds with 10 level tablespoons of CAR BAMATE WDG (fer bam) in one gallon of water for a seedbed 6 x 50 ft. Again this is a pro tectant, so coverage is important. Seedbeds should be sprayed every 5 days or after every watering. Since we are so early in the tobacco produc tion season and since the North Carolina trans plants have been spread over the tobacco pro ducing area (Lancaster, Lebanon, Centre and Union Counties), all Pennsylvania tobacco is at risk for serious dam age from blue mold dis ease. It is extremely important for all grow ers to follow the recom mendation to protect the Pa. tobacco ciop.
