Looks like Poa Cure offers their stuff through distributors now. Anybody got any luck in getting some?

No chance at getting any trust me. It's zero.

I have someone at a distributor ready to sell me some I just need an inside man at a golf course who can accept the shipment...
Cant you just meet him at a street corner somewhere? lol.
Nope lol. The MFR is auditing distributor logs. If the order is in a courses name and shipped to the course then we are good.

So the question is: who works at a golf course on TLF?

It's definitely expensive but think about how many people spend money on full blown renos due to poa a&t. A bottle of this is probably cheaper.

@situman - lol, I wish a case would just fall off a truck if you know what I mean. They are planning on bringing it to the homeowner market within 3-4 years.

Yikes. $280 16oz or $5,600 a case.
It is expensive but think about the amount of money,time,seed,effort, back breaking work that we all spend either on Reno's or kill this stuff off every year? I'd pay $280 a bottle all day if it meant no Poa or a massive control of it

It's just grass obviously, there are far more important things in life but we all love this, at least sometimes. When you strive to really kick it up a notch and then your plagued with Poa t or a, it's draining mentally. It's worth every penny, velocity is much more if you can get your hands on it and it's still shown not to control triv.

I would gladly pay $560 for two bottles in a heart beat to fight off my triv. Totally agree

Have they really said 3-4 years until they bring it to homeowners? I can wait that long

I think you guys are not approaching this the right way. Instead of talking to the distributor, go talk to your local super. Show up in person and ask for him to buy it with a fee ($50) for his troubles. I'm sure one will bite.

But once successful, don't get here or in Facebook or Reddit and post about it. That might make it harder to get.

^ that's the right way. I've had no luck finding a super around me who would even let his associates grind my reel let alone respond back to my e-mails.

Someone from TLF will get their hands on some just like @g-man said please don't broadcast it...
Supers are busy. They are not likely going to respond to an email from a random stranger. Go to the course on a Wednesday early tee time. Play a round. Discuss how great the greens are. Show images of your house lawn. Then describe the poa a infestation you have and that you are willing to pay him for PoaCure.

I just read a research summary. The South Korean company who brought Methiozolin to the world did it's initial research in rice. It's has been a LONG time in development and testing.

Would be interesting to know if this is one of those accidental discoveries or purposeful. Kind of like a radar = microwave or coal tar research = sweet n low.

Hopefully we will see it a little less expensive in a few years. There is a market for it. Hopefully it's actually safe. I guess our grandkids will find out. 😬
