2 p 1 Project Title: rop Safety of New Insecticides and Miticides Protocol #: PRnumbers:29325, 31731, 31697, 31689, 31724, Narrative Summary (Results/Discussion) Please keep text to one page if possible. Include summary of trial results and a brief discussion including how any changes from the protocol may have affected results. Results for multiple PRnumbers can be summarized together, but please list all PRNumbers in the header and in the summary data table. Pansy, Dracaena, alibrachoa and oreopsis were purchased as plugs from Kube Pak and potted up on 11/25/2014 in fafard #2 growing mix (70% peat, 20% perlite and 10% vermiculite) using classic 300S pots. Angelonia were purchased as seeds from Stokes seed and seeded on 11/3/2014 in classic 300S pots and fafard #2 growing mix. Dracaena and pansy were placed in greenhouse #1 while alibrachoa and oreopsis were placed in greenhouse #2. All pots were placed on a black woven porous weed mat and both greenhouses had overhead irrigation on a timer and overhead and floor heat. Osmocote Plus granular fertilizer was applied at a rate of 6 grams per pot. Beginning plant height and width measurements were done on 12/19/2014 for Dracaena and oreopsis, 12/22/2014 for alibrachoa and Pansy and 1/5/2015 for Angelonia. The first application was done on 12/23/2014, the second application was done on 1/6/2015 and the final application was done on 1/20/2015. For the Angelonia, the first application was done on 1/6/2015. The second application was done on 1/20/2015 and the final application was done on 2/3/2015. All foliage was dry prior to all applications and a single nozzle boom was used to treat all 12 pots of the same treatment sprayed over the top on a single pass. Plants of the same treatment were sprayed out of the same spray bottle mixture. This procedure was used for all foliar applications. ratings were taken every week after the initial application for six weeks. Final plant height and width measurements were taken on 2/3/2015 and 2/18/2015 for Angelonia. See protocol GH#1, 2 spreadsheet for evaluation ratings. Results Table Please insert results table here. Include PRnumbers for each treatment if multiple PRnumbers are included in this summary. Please include product, active ingredient, and statistics. See protocol GH#1, 2 spreadsheet. No stats were run on this data. The Dracaena spikes and oreopsis were not affected in any way at any of the rates by their applications. alibrachoa suffered no damage at any rate with Hachihachi S and SP3009. Both of these chemicals looked like they helped kill off the aphids and thrips that were damaging the other groups of alibrachoa since these groups suffered little to no insect damage. alibrachoa applied with Sultan and both control groups suffered major damage from thrips and aphids. Maintenance sprays were done to try to kill them off, but we had trouble controlling them. Once we did get control of the aphids and thrips, all plants began to improve and grow vigorously again. This was not until after the pictures were taken and the final evaluation was done. New, updated pictures were taken (3/4/2015) to show the improvement. The pansies had a few die off, but otherwise the rest grew well having SP3009 not affecting them. Angelonia suffered no damage from Sultan with the few that died being from natural causes. Being planted from seed, not enough grew so we had to exclude the surfactant only control group.
