A review of five commonly used fungicides for flower planting
Bordeaux mixture: can prevent and control downy mildew, rust, black spot, and gray leaf spot. Chlorothalonil: can treat powdery mildew, rust, blight, and other conditions. Carbendazim: can treat brown spot, anthracnose, and powdery mildew in plants and flowers. Thiophanate: can treat anthracnose, southern blight, black spot, sooty mold, powdery mildew, leaf spot, and other diseases. Zineb: can treat brown spot, damping-off, and seedling blight.
Commonly used fungicide one: Bordeaux mixture
Bordeaux mixture really is a good protective plant fungicide, often used to prevent and control downy mildew, rust, black spot, and gray leaf spot. After spraying, it forms a thin film on the plant body to protect the plant. However, Bordeaux mixture has one drawback: it does not store well and must be mixed and used immediately.
Commonly used fungicide two: chlorothalonil
Chlorothalonil also has a protective effect, covers many types of fungi, and works well, with a long duration of efficacy. It can effectively treat powdery mildew, rust, blight, and other conditions. However, when using chlorothalonil, take care not to let it touch the skin, to avoid skin irritation.
Commonly used fungicide three: carbendazim
Carbendazim has the characteristics of high efficiency and low toxicity, and has both protective and therapeutic effects on plants. It has a very good effect on treating diseases such as brown spot, anthracnose, and powdery mildew in plants and flowers.
Commonly used fungicide four: thiophanate
The name thiophanate, I believe many flower growers will be very familiar with it. Does it make you think of the thiophanate-methyl I often mention? Thiophanate has many uses, and it is low in toxicity for both humans and livestock as well as plants, making it very safe. For common plant diseases such as anthracnose, southern blight, black spot, sooty mold, powdery mildew, and leaf spot, thiophanate has a therapeutic effect on all of them.
Commonly used fungicide five: zineb
I believe many friends are no strangers to zineb either. Flower growers who have used it should be deeply impressed by its smell. Zineb has a foul odor, but this does not affect its effectiveness. You should know that for conditions such as brown spot, damping-off, and seedling blight, zineb has a very good therapeutic effect.
From now on, when plants have diseases, there is no need to be as directionless as before. Although these fungicides work very well, during use you still need to pay attention to the method and dosage. In addition, fungicides should be used to target the right disease, and must not be used blindly, to prevent harm to the plants.
