Features of Dimethomorph
1. Wide range of applicable crops and broad spectrum of activity.
Dimethomorph effectively controls downy mildew, potato late blight, and other low fungi diseases.
It can be applied to grapes, lychees, cucumbers, melons, bitter melons, tomatoes, peppers, potatoes, and cruciferous vegetables.
2. Good efficacy and long-lasting effect.
Dimethomorph has a unique mechanism of action.
It effectively targets all developmental stages of oomycetes, showing exceptional efficacy against various downy mildew and late blight.
It offers both preventive and therapeutic effects, along with anti-spore action.
The application interval for acetamiprid is usually around 7 to 10 days, which is 3 to 4 days longer than other agents, reducing application frequency and saving time and costs.
3. Strong systemic properties.
It has strong systemic properties.
When applied to the roots, it quickly penetrates all parts of the plant.
Spraying on leaves allows it to rapidly enter leaf tissues for comprehensive fungicidal effects.
4. No development of resistance.
Dimethomorph has no cross-resistance with other fungicides like metalaxyl and cymoxanil.
It can quickly kill pathogens resistant to other fungicides, ensuring stable efficacy.
5. Resistant to rainwash.
Its high solubility and dispersibility allow rapid penetration into leaves and localized diffusion.
It resists wash-off from rain, maintaining efficacy even after rain within one hour of application.
It enhances photosynthesis, resulting in brighter colors in fruits and vegetables, and improves overall crop yield and quality.
6. Good compatibility.
Using acetamiprid alone has a high risk of resistance development.
For example, users may report ineffective control of vegetable downy mildew due to resistance.
It is recommended to mix Dimethomorph with fungicides of different mechanisms, such as mancozeb, chlorothalonil, and organic copper preparations like oxine-copper.
This can delay the development of resistance.
Dimethomorph can also be mixed with azoxystrobin, pyraclostrobin, cymoxanil, mancozeb, propineb, Ametoctradin, thiram, chlorothalonil, phosethyl-al pyridaben, amino-oligosaccharin, prochloraz, metalaxyl, zhongshengmycin, iprodione and others.
(7) Low toxicity and good safety.
Dimethomorph remains safe even during flowering and fruit swelling stages.
It is a low-toxicity fungicide, making its use safer for growers.
It has low toxicity to bees and birds and shows no harmful effects on silkworms.
Its low-toxicity characteristics do not affect the fungicidal speed against plant diseases.

Application
Dimethomorph effectively controls downy mildew, potato late blight, and other low fungi diseases. It can prevent and control downy mildew in cucumbers, downy mildew in melons, blight in taro, blight in peppers, and downy mildew in cruciferous vegetables.
Dimethomorph is primarily used to control diseases through spraying; for disease affecting the collar or neck of roots, it can also be applied to the collar and surrounding soil.
When controlling diseases in grapes, lychees, or root and stem diseases, the recommended dilution is as follows: use 50% water-dispersible granules at a ratio of 1500 to 2000 times, 80% water-dispersible granules at 2000 to 3000 times, 40% water-dispersible granules at 1000 to 1500 times, 25% wettable powder at 800 to 1000 times, or 10% emulsifiable concentrate at 300 to 400 times, applied via spraying or drenching.
For controlling diseases in melons, solanaceous crops, leafy vegetables, and tobacco, generally use 35 to 50 grams of active ingredient per 667 square meters, mixed with 30 to 60 liters of water for spraying. The application is most effective before disease occurrence or at the initial signs of disease.
