Instructions for using phytosporin for tomatoes
Diseases of tomatoes can upset an experienced gardener and a novice summer resident. With such a disease of tomatoes as late blight, only special medicinal fluids with an active composition fight. Folk remedies cannot destroy a dangerous tomato disease.
Application of Fitosporin for tomatoes
Phytosporin for tomatoes is a safe option to kill fungus and crop-threatening pests. The instructions for the drug will allow a beginner to easily figure out the dosage. For tomatoes, Fitosporin is used in different concentrations and for different types of plants.
What is Fitosporin for?
The so-called chemistry, which many gardeners fear, is not so harmful, especially with the right approach to its spraying. Solutions based on natural ingredients are completely safe. Fitosporin is a top dressing, treatment and prophylaxis for tomatoes.
The drug, which allows you to save the harvest and heal the most common plant diseases (used even in greenhouses on seedlings), protects not only tomatoes, but also neighboring plants. Late blight, fungi and pests quickly destroy the crop, if seedlings suffer, then the death of seedlings takes no more than 2 days. In such conditions, the gardener should take emergency measures.
The composition of the product
The solution is used for seeds, rhizomes, seedlings and bushes planted in an open area. Treatment and prevention of tomato diseases requires different concentrations of active ingredients. The composition of the useful solution includes only natural ingredients: bacteria that strengthen the defense mechanisms of plants. The main components of the preparations saturate the culture with useful additives, and tomatoes manage to cope with a dangerous disease on their own. The solution is used for both seeds and ripe ovaries.
The spores of beneficial bacteria that make up Fitosporin destroy pathogenic microorganisms living in the soil or on plant stems. Treating the seeds with beneficial bacteria helps to strengthen the future seedling. The dosage of the agent (active ingredients and useful safe additives) is selected for tomatoes both in the hot season, and when a cold snap comes.
Effects of the active composition
In order to process part of the diseased seedlings, seeds or bushes, a small amount of the prepared solution is needed. If the product is properly diluted, the crop can be sprayed only 2-3 times a year.
The principle of action of active bacteria is simple:
- getting on the ground, the solution disinfects it: destroys fungi or pathogenic microorganisms;
- on the stem or seeds, the drug forms the thinnest protective film that does not pass pathogens dangerous for tomatoes;
- the formed film contributes to better saturation of the stems and seeds with moisture.
Neighboring crops can be treated with the rest of the solution.Spores of beneficial microorganisms will not harm other plants in any way, and the cleaned soil will not allow pests to penetrate the roots of tomatoes.
Release form of the drug
The very widespread use of the product requires the selection of the correct form. For seeds and bushes, you can buy Fitosporin in the form of:
- pastes;
- powder.
The use of the form of the drug is due to the convenience for the gardener. The concentration of spores of beneficial bacteria does not depend on the form of the product. Detailed instructions contain all the necessary information on how to properly dilute the paste and powder (the amount of water and possible useful additives are indicated). In most cases, only the resulting solution can be sprayed on weak crops: the solution allows you to process the entire plant and evenly distribute bacterial spores.
The use of paste and powder helps to strengthen tomatoes at any time of the year, so all forms of release can be stored in a dry room throughout the year. The prudent gardener purchases immunomodulating agents for tomatoes in advance. The processing of the plant occurs after the complete dilution of the paste or powder.
How Fitosporin is divorced
It is important to prepare the solution correctly
The treatment of the entire area will take place without problems if the paste and powder are properly diluted. The use of Fitosporin is the key to a good harvest, but only for the gardener who adheres to all the recommendations (instructions for the tool). For seedlings, it is better to dilute a powder that dissolves quickly in water. Regardless of the form of release, in order for the seedlings to be processed without problems, the correct proportion of all components must be maintained:
- 200 g dry product (paste and powder);
- 400 ml of purified running water.
There should always be 2 times more water than the dry component. Processing is not carried out in unfavorable conditions, otherwise there will be no sense in the work done.
Dilution conditions for paste and powder
It is important where and under what conditions a person will dilute the drug (paste and powder). Before watering most of the seedlings with a diluted product, consider the following:
- Ambient temperature. It is impossible to dilute the solution at temperatures above 35 ° C, because the spores of beneficial microorganisms will simply die. Too low a temperature (below 15 ° C) will also harm the active composition of the solution.
- The period of settling. It is not worth using the prepared solution right away: it is best for the diluted paste or powder to stand for several hours.
- It is impossible to dilute the medicinal liquid for seeds or seedlings in old containers after chemicals: this can only harm the culture.
If you properly dilute the paste for seedlings and bushes, you can easily protect tomatoes from pests and fungi. Watering and spraying is carried out in stages.
The gardener should carefully process each area (with possible damage) and adjacent soil. Spraying is not carried out unless dead infested seedlings are removed and are a threat to neighboring nightshades.
Fitosporin for cultivation
Phytosporin can be used when planting tomatoes. Before sowing, while the soil is preparing for the seeds, it can be sprinkled with powder.
For better penetration, you need to dissolve the powder in water. Spraying shows the best results, but if there is no time to prepare the solution, the powder will also come in handy.
The prepared seeds can be soaked in the product for 3 hours (the universal protector of tomatoes improves the effect of watering and allows you to forget about such problems as photofluorosis or "black leg" in seedlings for a long time). Only 4-5 drops of a substance with living components are added to a glass of water. Thanks to such a simple procedure, the seeds will be strong and will quickly start growing actively.
Before planting seedlings on open ground, the root system of the seedlings is moistened with a protective liquid. A spray bottle is used for tomato bushes. You can water the plant at any stage of growth.
Fitosporin-M solution
Preparations with spores of live bacteria may differ in the concentration of active ingredients. In the universal Fitosporin-M, the bacterial culture Bitsilus Subtilis is used, which is able to cope with any fungal disease.
For tomatoes (seeds and seedlings), an aqueous suspension of Fitosporin-M is useful. The fungicidal bacteria that make up the preparation are immunomodulatory for tomatoes.
Reviews of gardeners
Reviews of experienced gardeners and reviews of summer residents facing fungi and other diseases will be useful to everyone: the solution for processing is convenient to use and safe for human skin.
Reviews of Fitosporin for tomatoes will help to determine the form of the product for beginners who have not previously used beneficial bacteria in the fight against pests and diseases. The liquid is used at any time of the year as a universal preparation.
Conclusion
The drug Fitosporin will protect the plant or strengthen it, preventing dangerous diseases. If you follow the instructions that came with the product and handle the nightshade on time, you can avoid dangerous consequences for tomatoes.
A beneficial bacterium is the basis of the drug, which will not harm future fruits in any way, and after treatment with liquid Fitosporin, the gardener will be able to eat tomatoes or sell the crop after harvesting.
