Quintec® fungicide

Quintec® fungicide  

Active Ingredient: Quinoxyfen

Profile: Quintec® fungicide controls powdery mildew in cherries, grapes, hops, lettuce, melons, strawberries, peppers, stone fruits, winter squash, gourds, pumpkins and artichoke. It has a unique ability to redistribute around fruit and foliage to form a protective barrier, which allows it to reach hard-to-cover areas after application. Quintec also offers an extended spray interval that protects foliage and fruit long after application, and a mode of action that has never before been used.


Features

  • Highly effective against powdery mildew in cherries, grapes, hops, lettuce, melons, peppers and strawberries.
  • Extended spray interval of 10 to 14 days for most crops and up to 21 days for grapes.
  • Unique mode of action, never before used in North American crops. Makes an excellent rotational product with other fungicide classes (e.g., sterol inhibitors and sulfur).
  • Excellent crop safety profile.
  • Rainfast within one hour.
  • Registered under U.S. EPA Reduced Risk Initiative.
  • Does not disturb populations of most key nontarget species or biological control agents (e.g., predatory mites).

Application timing:

Dow AgroSciences and Precision Agri-Lab are partnering again to help you control powdery mildew. Starting in April, one-page faxes (or e-mails) can be sent on Monday and Thursday with information specific to your area. The information is generated from weather monitoring stations located throughout major grape-growing areas of California. Weather information is combined with the UC Risk Index model to give you a view of the existing mildew risk. Color maps are also viewable by clicking on the box below. For more information, call (888) 395-PEST.

Proper resistance management for powdery mildew in grapes requires use of different classes of fungicides. Rally® fungicide (a sterol inhibitor) used in rotation with Quintec fungicide (a quinoline) will help achieve this.
