What is Plant Health Care?
By the book, PHC is ‘a holistic and comprehensive program to manage the health, structure, and appearance of plants in the landscape’.
![Page 5: Plant health care](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110119/5568f1f2d8b42aff2e8b485f/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
What is IPM?
Deals solely with thresholds of insects and disease.
Borrowed from agricultural practice of crop loss vs. treatment expense.
Regarding ornamental plants, it tends to be purely aesthetic.

Appropriate Response Process (ARP)
ARP is, the process of gathering information, assessing the severity & implications of a problem, determining client expectations & deciding upon a course of action.

Where is energy going now?

And what about now…
Golf course tree with lawn mower disease.

One more time…

Review of concepts-
PHC vs. IPM ARP Resource allocation
![Page 14: Plant health care](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110119/5568f1f2d8b42aff2e8b485f/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Changing gears a little bit- Pest Control & Treatment
It’s not always a critter, It doesn’t always need
something… …but when it does
![Page 15: Plant health care](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110119/5568f1f2d8b42aff2e8b485f/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
…it pays to know the difference!
Botanicals Contact insecticides Fungicides Horticultural oils Insect growth regulators Insecticidal soaps Insecticides Microbial extracts Etc, etc, etc…
![Page 16: Plant health care](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110119/5568f1f2d8b42aff2e8b485f/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
The big umbrella of information
Botanicals, horticultural oils, IGR’s, insecticidal soaps, and microbial extracts are ALL forms of alternative pesticides.
ALL are somewhat less pest specific. Less damaging to natural enemies/ predators.
![Page 17: Plant health care](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110119/5568f1f2d8b42aff2e8b485f/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Don’t let this part get you down-
Botanicals are plant extracts (pyrethrin),
Horticultural oils suffocate insects or disrupt membranes (Volk oil),
For the test- pick ones you know to help you remember
![Page 18: Plant health care](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110119/5568f1f2d8b42aff2e8b485f/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
This section relies on BASIC knowledge
Insect Growth Regulators (IGR’s) are synthetic compounds
Act like insect hormones Disrupt life cycle or
target pest GypChek
![Page 19: Plant health care](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110119/5568f1f2d8b42aff2e8b485f/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
More of the chemicals…
Insecticidal soap (Safer’s & M Pede) are highly refined soaps that (again) disrupt life cycles.
![Page 20: Plant health care](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110119/5568f1f2d8b42aff2e8b485f/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
It’s really NOT that bad
Microbial Extracts- Contain insect
pathogens, Derived from extracts of
bacterial pathogens of insects
Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt)
![Page 21: Plant health care](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110119/5568f1f2d8b42aff2e8b485f/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Choosing ‘Cides
Main Entry: -cideFunction: noun combining formEtymology: Middle French, from Latin -cida, from caedere to cut, kill1 : killer <insecticide>2 [Middle French, from Latin -cidium, from caedere] : killing <suicide>
Ok, so it/they kill.
![Page 22: Plant health care](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110119/5568f1f2d8b42aff2e8b485f/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
We’re nearly finished
Fungicides-kill fungi OR used as a preventive.
Insecticides- kill insects either from direct contact or systemically
Pesticides- kill pests; weeds, insects or fungi. Not intended for use on annoying classmates, spouses or significant others.
![Page 23: Plant health care](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110119/5568f1f2d8b42aff2e8b485f/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
How they work…
Contact insecticides…on 3 everyone scream RAID!!!!!
Systemic- a substance that moves throughout a body and is absorbed by the entire organism, in this case roots,bark and leaves.
![Page 24: Plant health care](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110119/5568f1f2d8b42aff2e8b485f/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Break time!

Revenuers in Kentucky
Phenol is an alcohol Natural pesticide
![Page 26: Plant health care](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110119/5568f1f2d8b42aff2e8b485f/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
“I’m gonna tan your hide, kiddo!”
Oak bark, acorns and galls are all used to tan leather
Tannins are used in wine- more red than white
Another natural pesticide
![Page 27: Plant health care](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110119/5568f1f2d8b42aff2e8b485f/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Cellulose
Chain-like molecules found in the cell walls of trees
Provides strength to stand up and enables water and nutrient movement
Defense mechanism as many insects cannot digest it
![Page 28: Plant health care](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110119/5568f1f2d8b42aff2e8b485f/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Lignin
Further strengthens cell walls
Also indigestible by many insects
![Page 29: Plant health care](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110119/5568f1f2d8b42aff2e8b485f/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)

Stress?
What the @#*!?
![Page 31: Plant health care](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110119/5568f1f2d8b42aff2e8b485f/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Or stress…
Any factor that limits a plants’ ability to acquire necessary resources OR leads to excessive amounts of necessary resources can be considered stress.
![Page 32: Plant health care](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110119/5568f1f2d8b42aff2e8b485f/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Mortality spiral
The cumulative effect of stress can put a tree into a state of decline.
Stressed trees are more likely to succumb to drought, defoliation, borers, bark beetles or vascular diseases.
Best defense is a good offense!
![Page 33: Plant health care](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110119/5568f1f2d8b42aff2e8b485f/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Vigor or vitality
The plant’s inherent genetic capacity to resist stress
Adaptability to various soil types, moisture conditions, temperatures
The plant’s ability to deal effectively with stress
What plant maintenance professionals typically promote.

Pest resurgence
the rapid reappearance of a pest population in injurious numbers, usually brought about after the application of a broad-spectrum pesticide has killed the natural enemies which normally keep a pest in check
![Page 35: Plant health care](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110119/5568f1f2d8b42aff2e8b485f/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Secondary pest outbreak
a Flowering dogwood that has its bark knocked off by a lawn mower, is a prime target for the insect "Dogwood borer" to lay eggs
![Page 36: Plant health care](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110119/5568f1f2d8b42aff2e8b485f/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
