As a long term employee in the Denver cannabis industry, this strikes me as one of the saddest examples of market failure in the history of the world... And what's more ironic, is it's being continued primarily by a bunch of dumbass right-wingers who claim to be all about market driven economics!
​
What a bunch of horse shit!
​
myclobutanil (MCB) is an amazing fungicide. Farmers the world over use Eagle 20 on just about EVERYTHING, because it's cheap and it's effective AF! Unfortunately we discovered that when oxidized this compound yields cyanide gas, among other toxic nastiness. MCB can be safely eaten however!! This type of scientific data was only found because Colorado democratically chose to legalize and regulate cannabis.
​
Imagine a future where this type of process could be utilized to the benefit of everybody, not just those lucky enough to live in a magical place like Colorado!
I'm sorry, but I do not trust Pennington at all when it comes to turf recommendations, especially since they list Kentucky-31 as a proper turf grass.
Unless you have a fescue type that is designed to be cut that short, you really shouldn't be under 2.5". Even if you follow the 1/3rd rule, you'd need to be cutting as soon as the lawn reaches 3" if you are trying to maintain it with a 2" cut.
Clemson recommends 3 - 3.5" as a general rule of thumb depending on the time of year. (warmer climates compared to Penn St.)

Iowa St. recommends 3".

University of Maryland recommends 3-4" for Tall Fescue.

Of course there's also always Pete from GCI turf on the ol' Youtube who has arguably the best looking Fescue lawn I've seen, and he likes 4.5 - 5" for hit cut height.
I used to work in the industry, and I know how to treat brownpatch. The article you linked is correct as I said that retail stores themselves don't really keep decent fungicides stocked.

For Brown patch prevention when conditions first appear that favor a fungus outbreak (Lots of rain, followed by hot humid temps) A preventative application can be applied, and is good for 28 days.
For curative it's a bit more work. It typically takes up to 4 applications, 2 of one group, and one of another group, and then one of either the same group or back to the first group. All 14 days apart.
Typically my fungicide treatment revolves around the cheaper group 3 and group 1 products, with group 11's thrown in for rotation to prevent resistance from developing. If I'm doing Group 1 for my primary, my secondary application will typically be something like Armada. since it has both Group 3 and 11, if I'm using a Group 3 as the main application I'll use something like Heritage for my group 11.
You have to be really careful about where you get your information, as a lot of magazine articles or brochures are written by people who haven't really done the research. I don't trust Turf Mag or sales media to inform me on turf, the same way I don't just the verge to teach someone how to build a computer.
Looks like fungus. Try using this product.

Possibly fungus.
Best to apply fungicide before it pops up, sometime in April.
Eagle should prevent it, and cure it.
