Controlling root diseases is something not to be forgotten. This gives you more detail into the "behind the scenes"
Root diseases caused by species of the oomycete pathogens Pythium and Phytophthora are particularly difficult to manage. Although they share some characteristics with fungi, some aspects of their biology and biochemistry are dissimilar meaning only certain fungicides, such as Subdue, have a mode of action able to control them.
Different Pythium and Phytophthora species grow best at different temperatures: some Pythium species can grow and spread at below 15°C.
