Is there an extra seed corn treatment that will help or prevent pythium? I have a field of no till corn on corn that the initial stand looked really good. We have been extremely wet this spring and came back to sidedress the field and have some very thin spots. I’m not 100% sure, but I think pythium is the cause. I used Ethos XB in furrow, which didn’t seem to help. Not real pleased with my crop scout as he didn’t say a word about it. Is there a seed treatment that would have helped for pythium or any other in furrow product that performs better than Ethos XB?
Vegetables usually come with Thiram treatment on the seed. I’m sure there is an equivalent for corn. If possible get a filmcoat vs just dust. Much more effective. Captan, metalaxyl or mefenoxam is usually what I see on all of my sweet corn seed. |
