Fungus Control

Natural Broad Spectrum Fungus Control

Fungus Control is a fungicide derived from plant extracts that helps prevent infections caused by several types of root fungi. These root fungi attack roots during early development, causing stagnation of growth. Apply Fungus Control as a preventative during the crop season via soil irrigation.

Pest Targeted

• Effective against Fusarium, which can persist in soil for up to 6 years.
• Effective against Pythium, which affects the roots of crops and kills seedlings.
• Effective against Phytophthora, which causes decay of buds, tubers, and roots.
• Effective against Rhizoctonia, which causes Damping Off.

Application

Fungus Control can be applied to any crop. At the beginning of disease onset, mix 7.6 mL (1 1/2 tsp.) of product with one gallon (1 gal.) of water to properly dilute. This product can also be used in other quantities, respecting the dilution rate of 1:500; product to water. For area applications, use 20.8 oz to 27.7 oz per acre of land. Apply this product directly to the soil, before planting, in order to prevent fungal attack at the early stages of a crop’s development. Also, we recommend making several applications during the crop season, as a preventive measure to prevent further attacks.

Active Ingredients

Fungus Control uses the natural extracts of Yucca (Yucca schidigera) to reach the highest efficacy. Yucca extracts contain saponins which have fungicidal properties. The application of Fungus Control on crops affected by fungi reduces the rate of infection and disease severity in crops.

Safety & Environmental Info

This product is made from naturally derived ingredients and is non-toxic. Appropriate land management practices should be used at all times with any product; this material should be prevented from entering public or private water supplies (including wells) and any lake, stream, or river.
This product is phytotoxic to the foliage of plants; apply only via soil irrigation.

Mode of Action

This product produces chitinases, enzymes that degrade the chitin in fungus cell walls, preventing the spread of spores and fungus growth in crop tissues. The enzymatic complex present in Fungus Control acts at the root level, preventing infection by fungi and stimulating plant/root growth, so root fungal infection is minimized. Fungus Control should be applied before infection by fungi, as a preventive method. It can also be used as a treatment for crops infected by fungi using the dilution ratios listed below.

Directions for Use

Mix Rate
