I have been using civitas for 2 seasons now, and have been very impressed. This previous summer, I sprayed it religiously every 3 weeks on my fairways with PGR, fert, and some iron (in ND with upper midwest climate, bluegrass/poa fairways). No other fungicides. Never even saw a hint of dollar spot, which is really my only threat on the fairways in the summer unless we get a week or two nasty enough for pythium, which is rare. My experience does seem to show that it will cause some additional lushness and leaf blade thickening on greens, so I have cut that it out of my program on greens. I am also using it this fall, in combination with some other products, for snow mold control across the entire golf course. I did the same last fall and without a doubt saw faster dormancy break in the spring.
