- Applications
- Applicable Crop
- Application Technique
- Fungicide Target Species
- Application
- FOLIAR DISEASE CONTROL CEASE is an effective alternative to synthetic chemicals for fungal pathogens such as Botrytis spp. and Powdery Mildews, and to coppers for minimizing bacterial diseases caused by Pseudomonas and Xanthomonas spp.
- SOIL DISEASE CONTROL CEASE is a broad-spectrum biofungicide for the prevention, suppression and control of foliar and soil-borne diseases. CEASE enhances germination and plant growth by suppressing plant diseases.
- MULTIPLE MODES OF ACTION Based on the naturally occurring Bacillus subtilis strain QST 713, CEASE contains a group of natural antifungal and antibacterial compounds.

APPLICATION NOTES
- RECOMMENDATIONS
- CEASE should be used preventively when conditions favor disease development, but before the onset of symptoms
- May be used at the first sign of symptoms
- The use of a spreader/sticker or wetting agent is recommended to improve canopy penetration and coverage
- CEASE can be applied as often as every 3-days
- It is recommended to spray at 7-day intervals for prevention
- Can be used immediately before or after B-Nine application without phytotoxicity concerns that are common with coppers
