Mildew Control
An all-natural fungicide composed of plant extracts with both preventative and curative action against powdery and downy mildew — retarding spore germination and destroying pathogen cells while reducing environmental impact.
Mildew Control is an all-natural fungicide built around geraniol — a plant-derived terpene alcohol with established preventative and curative fungicidal properties. Applied to leaves and soil, it retards spore germination and destroys the cells of mildew pathogens in the order Erysiphales, including the key economic species affecting grapes, cucurbits, apples, berries, and tomatoes. Formulated on Vegalab's nano-encapsulation platform for superior foliar coverage and reduced environmental impact compared with conventional synthetic fungicides.
- Both preventative and curative action against mildew pathogens.
- Retards spore germination and destroys pathogen cells on contact.
- Targets key Erysiphales species affecting grapes, cucurbits, tomatoes, apples, and berries.
- Natural geraniol active — composed of natural oils, non-toxic formulation.
- Nano-encapsulated for improved foliar distribution and controlled release.
- Significantly reduced environmental impact versus conventional fungicide chemistry.

Low severity / prevention
Mix 3.8 mL per gallon of water (1:2,000 dilution). Apply 0.117 fl oz per 1,000 sq ft or 5.1 fl oz per acre.
High severity / curative
Use the same 1:2,000 dilution but increase volume: apply 0.196 fl oz per 1,000 sq ft or 8.5 fl oz per acre.
