Instructions for use
Of course, in order to get a positive result, to prevent disease of the vineyard, the processing must be carried out correctly.
First of all, you need to correctly prepare the mixture, and follow the recommendations. Experts say that the fungicide does not harm the environment.To prepare the solution, you only need water and no special skills.
To obtain the expected result, spraying must be carried out in accordance with the instructions. The development of fungal diseases occurs at the end of spring and the beginning of the summer season, when temperatures and humidity increase. Under such conditions, sulfur becomes as toxic as possible, and since it is the main component of the fungicide, it should be applied shortly after preparation.
The first time spraying is carried out in the last days of May, so the efficiency will be much higher. It is necessary to process the leaves affected by the fungus. As soon as the air temperature reaches +18 degrees Celsius, the spores will begin to die after a day, but if the heat outside is about 25-30 degrees, the disease will be stopped within 6 hours and will not spread through the vineyard. To identify problem areas, pay attention to those leaves and bunches that are in the shade, as this is where infection can begin.
Spraying is also carried out in the fall, on the eve of October.
It is important to note that the dosage should be determined according to the severity of the problem. If you are going to fight powdery mildew, 10 liters of water and 80 g of fungicide are enough. But for the destruction of the grape mite, the active ingredient will be needed half as much. As for powdery mildew, it is enough to dilute 50 g of the preparation in the same amount of water.
The packaging always contains recommendations and instructions from the manufacturer.
If the vineyard is quite large, you may need more pest control. To speed up the dissolution process, add the granules to a glass of water, then pour the prepared solution into a bucket of the appropriate size. It is not recommended to store the ready-made mixture; it is necessary to use it almost immediately. If you have previously started spraying products that contain any oils, you will have to wait two weeks to start treatment with Tiovit Jet. The waiting time for the drug is very short, as mentioned above.
As for the amount of mortar that may be needed, it depends on the area of the vineyard. For an average bush, about 3 liters of the mixture is required, but if it is more, the amount increases. It is recommended to spray in the morning or evening, when the sun is not beating down and the wind has calmed down. Make sure the vineyard is dry to avoid scalding the leaves. During the flowering period, the use of a fungicide is prohibited. By following all these simple guidelines, you will protect your crops from death.
