Sulphur 40% SC
TEASER 40 is an inorganic fungicide formulated as a 40% suspension concentrate of sulphur in a colloidal form with ultra-fine particles (<3 microns). This specialized formulation delivers rapid and effective control of fungal diseases, particularly powdery mildew, along with mite infestations across various crops. The fine particle size enhances adherence and activity on plant surfaces while also supplying sulphur, an essential macronutrient, to the crop. It’s unique formulation ensures efficacy without causing scorching or phytotoxicity, even on tender leaves, berries, and fruits.
Powdery mildew spores consist primarily of carbohydrate encased in an oil globule layer. Upon contact, TEASER 40 disrupts these oil globules, exposing the spores and chemically reacting with the carbohydrate core, leading to rapid spore death. Post-action, TEASER 40 converts into sulphide form on leaf surfaces, which oxidizes to sulphate (SO4), readily absorbed by the plant as a vital nutrient. This dual action allows simultaneous fungal and mite control along with nutritional benefits that promote overall crop health.
Ultra-Fine Colloidal Formulation: Particles smaller than 3 microns ensure rapid activity and superior coverage on plant surfaces.
Broad Spectrum Control: Effective against powdery mildew fungi and mite pests, enhancing integrated pest management.
Safe on Sensitive Plant Parts: Non-phytotoxic on tender leaves, young berries, and fruit, facilitating use even during sensitive growth stages.
High Temperature Tolerance: Recommended for cucurbit crops under elevated day temperatures, where conventional sulphur products may cause damage.
Nutritional Advantage: Rapid conversion to sulphate supplies sulphur, the fourth major nutrient, improving crop vigor and productivity.
