Best Use Guidelines
● Feekes 2-5 (tillering – pseudo-stem strongly erected)
- Apply 2 oz/A Tilt for early season disease suppression and to protect the plant.
- Can be applied with herbicide.
● Feekes 9 (ligule of flag leaf is just visible)
- Apply 14 oz/A Quilt for protection against foliar diseases on the flag leaf and residual protection on the glume.
5
Tilt: Key Product Attributes
● Tilt fungicide provides superior control of major foliar fungal diseases, such as Septoria, tan spot and powdery mildew, while helping crops achieve maximum yield potential and improve crop quality.
- The active ingredient of Tilt, propiconazole, is systemic.
- The site of action is inhibiting hyphal growth by stopping production of the cell membranes.
