The main rule to follow when processing grapes (and any other plants) is: do no harm.

An expert of the online publication BelNovosti, agronomist, landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh spoke in detail about the means that are commonly used to get rid of diseases and pests.

First, perhaps, it is worth listing the diseases that grapes are susceptible to. These are mildew, anthracnose, oidium, phomopsis, various rots, rubella, etc.

Of course, there is no point in treating every pathogen. Instead, you need to use one fungicide that will serve both as a preventative and as a medicine.

Before the buds open, you can use 3% Bordeaux mixture, but after, either reduce the strength to 1% or replace it with “Abiga-Peak”, “Hom”, “Acrobat”, “Oxyhom” and other preparations.

In turn, Fufanon-Nova, Karate Zeon, Kleschevit and similar products will help protect grapes from ticks.

To combat insects that belong to the parasitic type, use the following products: “Preparat 30 plus”, “Aktara”, “Iskra”.

You can also use folk remedies, although more for preventive purposes.
