This episode is two episodes in one. We recently recorded a chat with Rob Golembiewski from Atticus LLC from the USA.  Atticus may not be known to our listeners but Rob certainly would be known as he used to work for Bayer Environmental for a number of years. Rob made trips to Australia and spoke at the ASTMA conference back in 2019. I have kept in touch with Rob over the years and meet up with Rob regularly at GCSAA Conference. He is now a product specialist with a US chemical company. We chat about the active ingredient in Chino “cyazofamid” and discuss how US turf managers are using it against pythium.

The second part of this chat is an excerpt from previous episode 35 of Behind The Turf podcast with Brandon Horvath from University Tennessee. I spoke in depth with Brandon about the different types of pythium.  Please enjoy.
