Revystar Experience

Don't wish to sound like a stuck record, but the extended 4-5 week gap between T1 and T2, filled with rainfall, was enough to stretch any chemistry. I've seen poor performance this season (posted a pic somewhere) from Revystar and Univoq, no fungicide however new-fangled can be expected to give 4-5 weeks kickback.
Experience tells us we'll now go into three or four dry years with negligible disease pressure, which means adepidyn, when Syngenta bring it out, will have a much easier ride.
Just to add our weather experience wasn't like that so much and application was after 3 weeks, in the same field older chemistry faired alot better. Just to give balance.

I've been very dismissive and derogatory about flopit but I think it may actually have something about it. I'm glad I didn't buy into the hype about revyshite and stuck with older and cheaper chemistry which has worked just as well.

It has dissapointed me for ramularia on spring barley, timing was ideal at paint brush. Sounds like the addition of folpet has worked better.

Folpet + Imtrex at paint brush stage has disappointed here at same stage. Flags yellowed far earlier than usual.

Shouldn’t really be a bad rumularia year in Scotland. Very dry and sunny June/July and crops nice and clean when sprayed.

Think Folpet is like Defy, very much rely on the partner product to do the heavy lifting, but may offer something.

I was in two minds Elatus Era or Revyshite, went with the hype, ended up going through 7 days later with tebuconazole as Revy was like fertiliser for yellow rust. Teb quickly sorted it thankfully.

I have a friend who ended up doing exactly the same!

Leaves can be infected with YR before it expresses its pustules, then when you apply a fungicide the YR flushes it’s pustules in an attempt to finish its lifecycle before it dies.
I had the same with my T3 of Teb, no YR visible on the day of application, but lots showing 4 days after

Does anyone have a friend of a friend who used up some ctl with their sdhi this year? Would be interesting to hear if it had an impact earlier on? If only.theoretical...
40-50 years of experience means we can make a pretty good guess at what it would have done and it would have been quite a lot considering it’s cost. Especially if slotted into a T1.5 slot given some of the extended timings some people ended up with.
