"Sporobacterin" is easy to use, safe for plants, animals and humans
The action of the drug is provided by the waste products of microorganisms that make up "Sporobacterin". They have antiseptic, antifungal and antibacterial effects. At the same time, they do not have a negative effect on the nutritional value and acidity of the soil.
For which plants can Sporobacterin be used
The tool is used for any crops susceptible to infections that are sensitive to the action of the drug. Numerous reviews of "Sporobacterin Orton" indicate that the fungicide is actively used for diseases of indoor plants. It is also effective in the treatment and prevention of fruit crops, trees and berry bushes. It is used to cultivate the soil before planting and when growing seedlings.
The drug is effectively used from early spring to late autumn.
There are several types of the drug. The most common is "Sporobacterin Vegetation". It is used to spray plants and the soil around them during the period of active development. "Sporobacterin Seedling" is used to soak seeds when they are planted. It is also effective for the treatment of young seedlings.
How to breed Sporobacterin
The fungicide is available in the form of a powder concentrate. A liquid suspension is prepared from it for the treatment of affected plants and soil. To make "Sporobacterin" liquid, it is necessary to take into account the ratio of water to the drug.
Cooking options:
- Soaking seeds - 1.5 g of powder per 1 liter of water.
- Watering - 20 g per 10 liters of liquid.
- Spraying - 20 g per 10 liters of water.
- Solution for treating affected areas - 20 g per 20 liters of liquid.
Shake the working solution before use.
After diluting the powder, the liquid must be kept for 30 minutes. Then the solution is shaken and processed.
Instructions for use of the drug Sporobacterin
The fungicide has a wide spectrum of action. Therefore, it is used for different purposes. To achieve maximum results, you need to read the instructions for "Sporobacterin" for plants.
For seedlings
First of all, the drug is used to soak seeds. For this, a working fluid is prepared. 1.5 g of powder is added to 1 liter of water. The seeds are placed in this solution for 2 hours. After planting the seedlings, the soil is watered with "Sporobacterin". For 1 kg of soil, 100 ml of solution is required.
Treatment of planting material with the drug contributes to its disinfection from phytopathogens
According to the instructions for use of "Sporobacterin Seed", the ratio of the components of the working solution is the same as for irrigation. For 1 sq. m seedlings require 1 liter of the finished product.
For indoor plants and flowers
The tool is used for prophylactic or therapeutic treatment. The main method is spraying a diseased plant. The flower needs to be treated completely, and not just the affected areas.
Stages of the procedure:
- Dissolve 5 g of powder in 1 liter of warm water.
- Add sugar, wait 30 minutes.
- Spray diseased plants with a spray bottle.
- Carry out preventive soil treatment (50-100 ml of liquid for each plant).
Biological fungicide can be applied at any stage of plant development
For preventive purposes, it is advised to cultivate the soil in pots and flowerpots during transplantation. For 1 indoor plant, 50 ml of working solution is enough.
For vegetable crops
Sporobacterin can be used at all stages of cultivation. There are several nuances to consider when processing vegetables.
When growing plants from seeds, use "Sporobacterin Seed". The planting material is soaked for 6 hours in a 1% solution of the drug.
If tubers are used for cultivation, they must be sprayed before planting in the ground. For 1 kg of planting material, a solution is prepared from 0.5 g of powder and 1 liter of water. According to reviews of "Sporobacterin Seedling", this treatment is sufficient to prevent fungal infections in the early stages of growth.
The drug provides prevention and treatment of bacterial and fungal plant diseases
In the future, the following algorithm works:
- Spraying every 20 days (10 liters of solution per 100 square meters of planting).
- Watering at the root in the phase of leaf formation (1 g of the drug per 10 l of liquid).
- Treatment of the soil around the plant (1 g of powder diluted in 10 liters of water per 1 square meter).
Processing can be repeated many times. Their number is not limited, but the interval must be observed - at least a week.
Features of processing vegetables:
For fruit and berry crops
When planting, you should process the soil in the holes before placing seedlings or "cuttings" in them. This will protect the plant from diseases during the adaptation and rooting period. For this purpose, a solution is prepared from 10 g of powder and 0.5 l of warm water. For 1 plant, you need from 50 to 100 ml of such a liquid.
Due to the content of phytohormone in the plant, immunity increases
In the future, "Sporobacterin" is treated with adult fruit bushes and trees by spraying. For the procedure, a solution is prepared from 20 g of powder per 10 liters of water. In the future, it is diluted to 20 liters and used for spraying. A similar amount of the drug can be taken for watering the soil.
Security measures
The described agent is considered harmless to plants, domestic animals and the human body.However, improper use of a biological fungicide can lead to undesirable consequences. This also applies to analogues of "Sporobacterin", which have similar properties.
When processing, the following recommendations should be observed:
- Avoid contact of powder and solution with skin and eyes.
- Use protective clothing.
- Wear a gauze bandage to prevent the powder from entering the respiratory tract.
- Prepare the solution in containers not intended for food, drinking water.
- Quit smoking during processing.
- After spraying, carry out thorough hygiene procedures.
It is advisable to carry out the processing of plants in a cotton robe, gauze bandage and rubber gloves.
If the fungicide gets on your face or eyes, rinse immediately with clean water. If the drug is on the skin, the place of contact is treated with soapy liquid. If the fungicide is accidentally swallowed, gastric lavage is performed.
Storage rules
The powder or prepared solution must be kept separate from food. The storage area must be out of reach of children and pets.
It is not recommended to keep the preparation in close proximity to feed, fertilizers and other fungicides. The product should be stored at a temperature not exceeding 25 degrees.
Conclusion
Sporobacterin is a biological fungicide that has a complex antifungal and antibacterial effect. The drug is used for therapeutic and prophylactic treatment of various types of plants. The tool is used for watering the soil, spraying and preparing seedlings. Treatment with "Sporobacterin" must be carried out in accordance with the instructions, observing the basic precautions.
