Honor Guard Fungicide
By Doug on 07/26/2011
I've been having ongoing fungus problems with my zoysia lawn here in Florida. I tried using Subdue for six months or so with fair results, which in my opinion didn't justify the high price and hype of the product. I recently purchased and sprayed the lawn with Honor Guard and am pleased with the results. Most fungicides take about fifteen days after application to manifest lawn improvement, and I can already see the brown spot disappearing. Nice product and low prices at Do My Own Pest Control. I intend to order two pints next time.

Very happy with this product

We have a major problem in the Charlotte NC area with lawn fungus. This is the first product that has worked. The granular and liquids in home stores don't do as much as this has and at half the price for the season. I would suggest however that when estimating how much you will need go with the maximum mix rates. I did a preemptive spray at a low rate and it prevented a massive fungus attack compared to my neighbors. But now I would use a stronger dose as I got some spots. I resprayed when the fungus was found but I felt it was a little slow to stop it and turn it around. In the future I will use more. I will also investigate other fungicides from DMOPC so that I can switch products to avoid a resistant fungus. I recommend this product.

Works better than the stuff at the home centers.

Here in NC Lawn Fungus does a lot of damage to a lawn. Ive tried granular and liquids from home centers. The liquids were lame and the granular had to be watered in.So until the granules broke down and was absorbed by the grass, the fungus kept progressing. I have an acre of grass, and the granules are expensive! Last year I tried Honor Guard with great success. I found the Honor Guard works right away, and for what it cost me to treat the lawn once with granules, I could treat the lawn 2-1/2 times with Honor Guard. Last year my Cherry trees had heavy mildew on the leaves. The trees dropped their leaves in late August. This year as soon as I so much as suspect a problem I intend to spray the trees early to prevent the mildew. I also like that this product can be used on grass and plants and is broad spectrum. So although it's more costly than home center stuff it works better and replacing a lawn is expensive too.

Good Initial Option
By Gdj on 05/28/2012
I have used Honor Guard PPZ for turf fungus on 3 separate occasions with variable results. For mild to moderate fungal turf afflictions this product will work well, however for the more persistent variety you will note that despite repeated treatments they do not seem to completely resolve. I am moving on to another product to see if it will make a difference for these persistent areas I have on my lawn. It's a good product for the price point and worth trying before moving on to a more expensive alternative.
