Composition and purpose
The drug is made from high-quality sulfur, which is the main substance. Experts recommend using a fungicidal mixture to prevent the appearance and further development of common diseases, which include powdery mildew and mosaic. The composition also effectively fights pests that can attack plants.
In what form is it produced and how does it work?
The product is produced in the form of granules, which are mixed with water before use. When interacting with liquid, a working solution is obtained, which after spraying remains on the surface of the plants. A protective film is formed that prevents the penetration of dangerous bacteria and pests.
Advantages over analogues
"Tiovit Jet" has several advantages that distinguish it from similar products:
- easily dissolves when mixed with water;
- versatility, thanks to which the product can be sprayed on any plants;
- the composition is non-toxic and safe;
- long shelf life of three years.
Consumption rate for various plants
It is recommended to understand the application rates for different crops in advance.
For planting grapes
Sometimes Tivoit Jet is used to spray grape seedlings to protect them from ticks. When creating a solution, forty grams of the product are added to a ten-liter container with water. Spraying is carried out 1-2 times per season. Five liters of mixture are consumed per bush.
For apple and pear trees
The fungicide is often used when growing pear and apple trees. In this case, seedlings should be sprayed in the second half of the growing season, as this is more effective.4-5 liters of solution are sprayed onto each tree.
For gooseberries and currant bushes
Gardeners often grow currants and gooseberries on their plots. Such berries can get powdery mildew and therefore, for prevention, they are treated with Tiovit Jet. The bushes are sprayed with a weakly concentrated solution. To prepare it, add 20 grams of the product to ten liters of water. To treat a bush you need 3-4 liters of liquid.
For flower crops
Flower crops are subject to attacks by pests, which can negatively affect their flowering. Therefore, experienced gardeners advise spraying them with fungicides. The working solution is prepared from 25 grams of the drug and 8-10 liters of water. 2-3 liters are consumed per flowerbed.
For tomatoes and cucumbers
Cucumbers and tomatoes, like other vegetable crops, require preventive treatment. The working solution is created the same as for spraying grapes. A square meter of area with vegetables is treated with 500-600 ml of the drug.
Processing rules
Before using a fungicide, you need to understand the rules for spraying. It is necessary to carry out processing in the evening or morning, when there is no sun.
You also need to choose calm weather so that the composition does not fall on neighboring plants.
Precautions and toxicity
There are certain precautions that you should take before using the drug:
- during work, use a protective mask and gloves;
- Seedlings should be sprayed when there are no animals or children nearby;

Storage Features
The packaged fungicide can be stored in a dry place for three years. In conditions of high humidity, the drug will deteriorate many times faster.
