Expert opinion

The fungicidal effect of the preparation is due to the products of oxidation-reduction transformations of the sulfur contained in the composition.

Sulfur-containing vapors penetrate the mycelium and fungal spores, where they form hydrogen sulfide, inhibiting the pathogens' respiratory function. Elemental sulfur also reacts with metals to form sulfides. These processes disrupt the metabolism of fungal cells, resulting in the death of the fungi.

Calculation of consumption for different crops

The dosage of the drug depends on the type of object being treated.

For apple and pear trees

For every 100 square meters of planting, 10 liters of working solution is required, which requires 30-80 grams of fungicide. Trees are treated during the growing season from one to six times per season.

For flower crops

Ornamental plants are sprayed with a solution of 20-30 grams of granules in 5-10 liters of water. This volume of solution is sufficient to treat 100 square meters of plantings. The procedure is repeated 2-4 times per season.

For planting grapes

To treat 100 square meters of vineyard, dissolve 30-40 grams of fungicide (up to 50 grams for powdery mildew) in 10 liters of water. One spraying is sufficient for protection against spider mites, while two to four applications are required for powdery mildew.

For tomatoes and cucumbers

For vegetable crops, prepare a solution of the product at a rate of 15-20 grams of granules per 5 liters of water. For 1 square meter, 0.5 liters of working solution is sufficient.

For gooseberries and currant bushes

To prepare 10 liters of working solution for treating 100 square meters of berry bushes, you will need 20-30 grams of granules. Gooseberries are sprayed up to six times per season, and currants – up to three times.

How to carry out processing

Treatment is carried out with a freshly prepared aqueous solution of fungicide granules by spraying the above-ground parts of plants.

To make a working solution, you need to dissolve the required number of granules in a third of the total volume of water, then add the remaining water.

Spray precisely and thoroughly to ensure maximum contact. Ideally, spray in the evening when weather conditions are favorable. The safe air temperature for Thiovit Jeta is between 18°C and 28°C. At lower temperatures, the product's effectiveness is reduced, and at temperatures of 35°C or higher, the fungicide may cause leaf burn and leaf drop.
