Call us now to find out more about this product, or place your order online. Damping off is the result of a fungal infection that can occur at any stage of the plant’s growth cycle. Copper fungicide controls damping off by providing an essential mineral (copper) to the soil that only certain funguses are able to access. Using a copper fungicide to control damping off can reduce the frequency of infection and leave crops with matured, increased yields.

For what purpose should we use copper fungicide and how much should be used?
Copper Fungicide For Damping Off
Introduction
If you’re a gardener who’s noticed that your seedlings are dying, you may be experiencing damping off. This fungal infection is particularly problematic because it can spread quickly and kill plants in just a few days. While there are many anti-fungal treatments available, one of the best is a copper fungicide. Here’s an overview of how this product works and why it’s so often recommended by experts.
What is Copper Fungicide?
Copper fungicide is a compound of copper that is used to kill fungi. Copper fungicide is used in agriculture, horticulture, and in industrial settings.
Copper fungicides are often sprayed on plants as a preventative measure against the spread of fungal diseases such as powdery mildew or rust.
How Does Copper Fungicide Work?
Copper fungicides work by killing the fungus. Copper fungicides are effective against a wide range of fungal diseases, including: powdery mildew, phytophthora blight, rusts, smuts, brown spot and anthracnose. They are also effective against a wide range of plant diseases including: leaf spots (including downy mildew), tomato blight, bacterial leaf spot and more.
Benefits of Copper Fungicide
Copper fungicides are broad-spectrum fungicides and effective against a wide range of fungal diseases. Copper fungicide is an excellent choice for controlling Pythium, Rhizoctonia and Fusarium dry rot.
Damping off disease is caused by many different fungi species including Rhizoctonia solani, Fusarium oxysporum, Pythium ultimum and Pestalotiopsis spicifera. The most important step you can take to prevent damping off is to maintain good drainage in your garden beds so water drains away from the crowns of your seedlings instead of sitting around them where it can cause rot problems later on in their lives.
How to Apply Copper Fungicide
- Do not apply copper fungicide on windy days or hot days. Copper compounds tend to volatilize and be carried away by the wind, so you may need to wait for a calm day before spraying.
- Make sure you are wearing protective gear when applying copper fungicides as they can burn skin and cause serious eye damage if splashed into them by accident.
- Always follow the instructions on the product label carefully! Copper is toxic in large doses, so do not apply more than recommended amounts or spray over an extended period of time without taking breaks between applications because this can lead to over-exposure which could result in sickness or death if consumed by humans/animals or absorbed through our skin during contact with plants treated with these chemicals (which might then be eaten).
A discussion of a fungicidal treatment.
Copper is a naturally occurring element that can be used as a fungicide. It’s important to note that copper sulfate should not be applied with any other type of fungicide, as it will react and cause the other treatment to work less effectively.
Copper-based products are best for preventing damping off in seedlings, because they kill fungus quickly (within 48 hours). Copper also has some residual effect, so it may help prevent future infections. You can buy commercial copper fungicides from garden centers or online retailers. They usually come in either liquid or granular form, which must be mixed into water before applying them to plants!
The main side effect of using too much copper is leaf burn on sensitive plants like tomatoes and peppers – so apply only what is needed! If your plants start showing signs of leaf burn after application then stop using the product immediately until you talk with an expert at Cornell Cooperative Extension who will give advice on how best to proceed next time round…
Conclusion
Copper fungicide may be a useful treatment for some plants, but it’s important to check that your intended use is covered by the EPA. It’s also vital to follow instructions carefully and not to over-apply.
