Diseases of Roses with UAB Masso Garden Sulphur

Rose Diseases from UAB Masso Garden is a care product based on micronized sulphur used for its fungicidal and disinfectant properties in the treatment of many rose diseases such as powdery mildew and Marsonia, vine diseases, scab in certain fruit trees, and various pathologies of vegetable crops. It is a traditional and natural product that acts both through contact and the vapour it emits. An essential for organic gardening.

This UAB Rose Disease treatment is composed of 80% (800 g/kg) micronized mineral sulphur THIOVIT® GARDEN A.M.M. 9500147 from Syngenta France S.A.S. Sulphur is a natural mineral. This Masso Garden treatment comes in the form of a very fine powder to be diluted in water and sprayed on vegetation using a sprayer. The mode of action of sulphur is simple: when in contact with leaves, it emits vapour under the effect of light and temperature, which penetrates inside the cells of the pathogenic fungus. Toxic to fungi, it slows down their growth and even destroys them. Sulphur acts not only preventively but also proves capable of treating or stopping certain already declared pathologies. The duration of sulphur's action is about one week, renew applications as needed. Its anti-fungal properties are maximal at temperatures between 23 and 25°C; beyond that, it can become toxic to plants and cause leaf burns. In summer, if the day is expected to be very hot, preferably treat in the early morning or evening, but before sunset. Sulphur is considered slightly harmful to humans, animals, and bees.

Sulphur is effective against:

• powdery mildew (roses, vegetables): preventively and curatively;
• black spot (roses): preventively and curatively;
• scab (apple and pear trees): preventively and curatively;
• gall mites (galls caused by a small mite in lime, maple, and vine, for example): curatively;
• red spider mites (conifers);
• bugs, ants: as a repellent;
• vine diseases and pests: powdery mildew, excoriosis, gall mites.

Usage: treat facing away from the wind, in good weather. Repeat application in case of heavy rain. At high doses, by spreading, sulphur acidifies the soil, which can be beneficial in excessively chalky soils.

Main application doses:
7.5g per 1L of water, for 10m²
Harvest interval: 5 days.

Warnings, precautions: in the context of integrated pest management, excessive use of sulphur can be harmful to certain beneficial insects. Fruits and vegetables intended for consumption or canning must be free of sulphur traces. Do not ingest. Avoid inhaling sulfur dust and particles, as they can cause respiratory irritation. Like any product, keep sulphur flower out of reach of children.
