Instructions for the use of "Fitosporin" against grape diseases, dosage and treatment
Non-toxic preparation "Fitosporin" with detailed instructions for use for grapes is a bacterial agent designed to fight fungi and bacteria - pathogens of grapevine diseases. This drug can be considered a first aid kit for vines of grape varieties with varying degrees of disease resistance. With timely assistance to the seedling, the pathogen will have no chance of survival.
Properties and composition of the product
"Fitosporin" is a systemic group drug, which is based on the principle of its action - the ability to spread inside the treated plant, it is transported by the juice circulating in the vine. The basis is a spore culture that produces fungicidal oligopeptides, which are the products of its vital activity. They create an unbearable environment for the growth of fungi and bacteria.
A natural fungicide is produced in a pasty, free-flowing, emulsion form. For grapevines, it is recommended to use a pasty agent that can be applied in a diluted state directly to the lesion of fungi and bacteria. The active ingredient of "Fitosporin" is sulfuric bacillus - a soil living bacterium.
"Fitosporin" is used against grape diseases caused by the reproduction of parasitic microorganisms in the vine.
Bacillus subtilis is a representative of the order of aerobic spore-forming. The bacterium hay bacterium was named for the way the microorganism reproduces in hay extract. She is the main element of "Fitosporin".
Application
Used "Fitosporin" for many diseases of grapes, only some of them are indicated on the package with the tool:
- root rot;
- scab;
- powdery mildew;
- rust.
This list can be safely supplemented with traditional diseases of the vine varieties growing in temperate climates. When choosing fungicides, gardeners often face the question of whether it is possible to process the vine without spoiling the quality of the crop. When working with "Fitosporin", nothing threatens the quality of berries and human health. This means you can process grapes at any stage of the growing season.
Pros and cons of using
The positive aspects of using a biologically active agent are that:
- you can use it without the risk of making the crop inedible not only before the ovary appears on the bushes, but during the ripening period of the berries;
- it is used in the fight against a wide range of grape diseases caused by fungal or bacterial infection;
- temperatures at which the drug works successfully, from –50 ° C to +40 ° C;
- multifunctionality - acceleration of growth, strengthening of the root system, antiseptic treatment;
- environmentally friendly substance is not dangerous for animals, bees, humans;
- combined with other drugs;
- improves the quality of the crop;
- relatively low cost.
The disadvantages of a biologically active agent are that the active element decomposes in sunlight, and is inferior to chemical analogues in the effectiveness of plant treatment.
Toxicity
The low level of toxicity of the agent can be attributed to the positive aspects of the universal agent, which has a beneficial effect on both garden and house plants. The low concentration of toxins is also evidenced by the fact that after the treatment of garden crops, bees continue to pollinate them without any risk.
Instructions for use
From what "Fitosporin" is at hand, the instruction prescribes to prepare a homogeneous concentrated mass:
- The paste is diluted, keeping the proportion of 1 part "Fitosporin" to 2 parts of water. Only then can the spray liquid be diluted. One tablespoon of the concentrated product is meant for 10 liters of water.
- It is a little more difficult to dose the powder formulation. 10 liters of liquid requires only 5 g of powder. Dosage accuracy can only be ensured by a pharmaceutical scale. The aqueous composition is infused before use for 2 hours.
Attention! To maintain the performance characteristics of the "Fitosporin" preparation, it is absolutely impossible to use chlorinated water for the solution. Chlorine kills all types of bacteria, both harmful and beneficial.
How to treat grapes with Fitosporin for prevention? To prevent diseases, treatment is carried out three times:
- The first time at the stage of pecking out of the buds of leaves.
- The second stage is during flowering.
- The third enhanced treatment is carried out at the stage of flying around the petals. For her, the dosage is doubled.
When treating bushes from scab, you should combine the drug with the growth stimulator "Zircon". Its concentration is 1 g per 10 liters of water.
"Fitosporin-M" is a fungicide that enhances the strength of seedlings, increasing the adaptability of seedlings to a new climate thanks to humic acids. A self-sufficient product that does not need additional enhancement of the effect, it is used to soak plants with an open root system before planting.
Humic acids are not involved in antibacterial treatment against pathogens. The liquid form "Fitosporin" is intended for the treatment of vines, during the growing season, on leaves. The vineyard is watered with Fitosporin twice a month.
Compatibility with other substances
"Fitosporin" is compatible with chemical compositions, except for those containing alkali or ingredients that can provoke an alkaline reaction. The list of compatible drugs includes the antibiotic "Fitolavin", fungicides, growth stimulants, insecticides and many other agents.
Mixtures with fungicides
List:
- Vitivax 200;
- "Quadris";
- "Strobe";
- Tilt Premium;
- Fundazol.

Growth stimulant supplements
Fitosporin is a product from the Organic Live Farming series. It is enhanced with the elixir of fertility GUMI - a growth vitamin used to strengthen the roots of seedlings. In addition to stimulating rapid development, sodium humates are enriched with a complex of trace elements. The tool has an anti-stress effect on plants after transplanting, at the stage of rooting, flowering, ripening of the crop.
The composition of GUMI - a growth stimulator in Fitosporin-M:
- sodium humates - 60% of the active substance;
- phosphorus from 0.5 to 2.0%;
- sodium from 0.5 to 2.0%;
- potassium from 0 to 1.0%;
- minerals and trace elements of natural humic origin.

- accelerate the recovery of the vine after illness;
- strengthen the bush during flowering;
- resist drought without dropping part of the crop;
- do not succumb to radiation exposure;
- not to die in the event of damage caused by insects and their larvae.
A complex of plant-friendly bacteria has an antifungal effect and destroys disease-causing bacteria that have settled in the plant. At later stages, the same remedy helps in the fight against a progressive disease - a consequence of the defeat of pathogenic organisms.
Among chemical growth regulators in combination with "Fitosporin" are used:
- "Amulet";
- Plantafol;
- Ribav-Extra;
- "Zircon";
- "Epin".
Folk remedies
In the fight against mildew, according to winegrowers, the infusion of sifted wood ash helps. Its proportion with water is 1/10. Insist 5 days, strain, add 50 g of laundry soap.

Equivalent means
The drug is similar to "Fitosporin" action - "Trichodermin". It also has a biological component. It is used to combat 60 plant diseases caused by fungi, their parasitic activity in relation to the cultivated plant. Method of production: powder and liquid.
