Serenade ASO Biofungicide
Serenade ASO Biofungicide
Serenade ASO is an organic broad-spectrum biofungicide that can be applied to many different crops and is effective against soil and foliar bacterial and fungal diseases. Designed to be applied preventatively, Serenado ASO has Bacillus subtilis strain QST 713 as its active ingredient. This beneficial bacterium forms a dense biofilm that forms a protective barrier around roots, seeds or transplants. This barrier will continue to grow along with the plant and its roots. As the bacillus grows in the root zone, it produces metabolites that:
- Stimulate a natural defense mechanism in the plant that promotes robust, healthy growth and stress resistance
- Enhances photosynthesis
- Kill soil diseases outright, including Pythium, Rhizoctonia and Fusarium
While much of the action is in the soil, when applied foliarly Serenade ASO protects against pathogens like Botrytis, Powdery mildew, Sclerotinia, Xanthomonas and Erwinia.
Other Key Benefits of Serenade ASO:
- Can be tank-mixed with other products, including fertilizers and other fungicides (see label for guidelines and any restrictions)
