Insects Standard insect control measures generally are effective, but must be applied in a timely manner. Psyllid injury is common in this cultivar. In addition, the abundance of flowers may attract large numbers of insects. Fungicides Control of foliar early blight usually is accomplished with one fungicide application, but, sometimes none are required. Under proper fertility, rapid bulking occurs relatively late.
Tubers are resistant to hollow heart, second growth, blackspot and shatter bruise.
Vine killing is required. Excessive N can delay maturity making this operation much more difficult. However, once mature, vine killing is readily accomplished. Bacterial ring rot foliar symptom expression is somewhat mild and occurs within 90 days after planting. Excessive N, applied early, may inhibit typical leafroll symptoms.
