Spore Control is a fungicidal agent derived from organic plant extracts. It is applied as a foliar spray and is effective against a broad spectrum of fungal pathogens.
ACTIVE INGREDIENTS
Spore Control uses natural extracts of Thyme oil as a fungicide. Thyme oil creates a protective film over the plant cuticle, leaving the tissue intact. Spore Control has both preventative and curative effects against anthracnose, damping off, powdery mildew (downey mildew), gray mold, phytophthora, and wilt disease.
MODE OF ACTION
Fungal growth cycles begin with spore germination at the plant surface. After docking at the surface, germ tubes begin to grow and feed from plant cell nutrients. The two-fold prevention and healing effect works by inhibiting spore germination, germ tube growth, and by destroying the pathogen cell. Thyme oil induces an unbalance of K+ ions inside the mycelium and inhibits spore germination and mycelium proliferation. It enters the pathogen cell, causing cell lyses.
PROVEN RESULTS
• Effective against anthracnose on eggplants, peppers (chili and sweet), potatoes, and tomatoes.
• Effective against damping off (water mold), fusarium, gray mold (Botrytis), and phytophthora (root rot) for most fruit and vegetable crops.
• Effective against downey mildew, especially as related to cucurbits.
• Effective against wilt disease, as related to bananas, cucurbits, eggplants, geraniums, ginger, olives, peppers (chili and sweet), potatoes, tobacco, and tomatoes.
• Effective against fire blight in orchard.
• 10-14 residual and contact protection
• Zero Pre Harvest Interval and Zero Re-Entry Interval
