Chapter 7. Cucurbit Production 52 Table 7.12. Nonfumigant nematicides for cucurbit crops in Florida. Product Application Directions Mocap 15G (a.i. ethoprop) Apply 13 pounds per acre (7-foot row spacing) or 2.1 pounds per 1,000 linear feet of row in a band 12 to 15 (only labeled on cucumber) inches wide on the row at planting. Prepare bed and knock off top to provide a level area for treatment. Mix with the top 2 to 4 inches of soil with mechanical equipment right after application. DO NOT use as a seed furrow treatment or allow granules to contact the seed. Only 1 application per season. Vydate L (a.i. oxamyl) Apply ½ to 1 gal/acre at planting, preferably via drip application. Make additional applications on a 10-to-14- day interval. Do not apply more than 2 gallons per acre per season. Minimum retreatment interval is 7 days unless a longer interval is stated. If an at-plant application of more than ½ gal/acre is made, do not make more than 2 additional applications. Nimitz (a.i. fluensulfone) All applications must be incorporated either physically or via drip or overhead irrigation. Make preplant applications at a rate of 3.5 to 7 pints (56.0 to 80.0 fl oz) per acre, a minimum of seven days before planting. Do not plant any unlisted crops into treated land for 365 days after application of the product. Do not apply more than one application per crop and no more than 112 fl oz of product per acre per year (365 days). Provides control only for nematodes. Growers applying Nimitz must consult the product label to observe the plant-back (recropping) intervals for a variety of leafy vegetables and brassica crops, onions, bananas, sugarcane, and other crops. Velum (a.i. fluopyram) Apply max 6.84 fl oz/acre using only chemigation into root zone through low-pressure drip, trickle, microsprinkler, or equivalent equipment. Observe minimum 5-day interval between soil applications. Do not apply more than 13.7 fl oz of Velum (0.446 lb fluopyram) per acre per year, regardless of formulation (Velum and/or Luna) or method of application (soil or foliar). For soil application, to limit the potential for development of disease resistance to this chemical class, the first foliar fungicide application after Velum should be a product from a different FRAC group. Mocap and Vydate are insecticide/nematicides; Velum is a fungicide/nematicide; Nimitz is a true nematicide. Unlike fumigants, these products are not volatile and will move through the soil via water; depending on the water solubility, these products will have different recommendations as far as how to best apply them (see specific label recommendations); when nematode pressure is high, they may not be as consistently effective against root nematodes as the fumigants.

Vapam HL 75 gal - For drip or in-row chisel fumigation, consult product label for proportionately reduced overall rates, drip concentration, and flow-modifying directions and procedures. KPam HL 60 gal - For drip or in-row chisel fumigation, consult product label for proportionately reduced overall rates, drip concentration, and flow-modifying directions. Allyl Isothiocyanate 40 gal - For drip or in-row fumigation and crop termination, consult product label for (AITC) overall rates, drip concentration, and other flow-modifying directions. Dominus 1 Gallons/acre and fl oz/1000 feet provided only for mineral soils. Higher rates may be possible for heavier-textured (loam, silt, clay) or highly organic soils. 2 All of the fumigants mentioned are for retail sale and use only by state-certified applicators or persons under their direct supervision. New supplemental labeling for the Telone products must be in the hands of the user at the time of application. See new label details for additional use restrictions based on soil characteristics, buffer zones, requirements for Fumigant Management Plans (FMP) and personal protective equipment (PPE), mandatory good agricultural practices (GAPs), product and applicator training certification, and other rate-modifying recommendations with use of highly retentive mulch films. 3 Higher application rates are possible in the presence of cyst-forming nematodes. Rates are believed to be correct for products named, and similar products of other brand names, when applied to mineral soils. Higher rates are required for muck (organic) soils. However, the grower has the final responsibility to see that each product is used legally; read the label of the product to be sure that you are using it properly.
