Program recommendations

It is recommended to start using SCS-Tech® products before the appearance of external signs of the disease or as soon as the first lesions are detected. Spraying of pome fruits in protected soil should be carried out from the stage of BBCH 00-09 Sprouting/Bud development to the stage BBCH 81-89 Maturity of fruit and seed. SCS-Tech® products are as flexible as possible with regard to the application rate of working solution. It is only necessary to clearly observe the specified product concentration in the working solution.

Spraying should be done until the leaf surface of the plants is completely madefaction.

All preparations can be added to the fertigation system at a concentration of 0.1%-0.3% (1-3 l/ha) per 1000 liters of water, depending on the phenological phase.



In case of increased infectious load, epiphytotics, it is possible to increase dosage of Silver Mix® to 1% solution and/or increasing the frequency of treatments, up to 3 days, without ecotoxicological manifestations.



The use of organo-silicone superwetting agent according to the specified scheme is obligatory and provides:


  • maximizing the full disclosure of all product properties;
  • uniform distribution of the solution over the surface of plants with pubescence and waxy coating, minimizing its loss during spraying.

Immunity induction results


The maximum indicators of internal protection against pathogens are achieved at the beginning of the use of the SCS-Tech® plants health improvement, immunization and yield management program before the first signs of plant infection and careful observance of the terms and parameters of treatments throughout the growing season of tomatoes.


i - The maximum indicators recorded during scientific, industrial tests and practical use of SCS-Tech® products are indicated.

Integration and Compatibility


As part of minimizing the use of highly toxic pesticides, it is recommended to integrate additional drugs into the program only in extreme plant development conditions, for example, with an increased infectious load, epiphytotics, critically depleted soil, etc.


Integrated preparations (fertilizers and fungicides) can be used in the minimum dosages recommended by the manufacturer according to the regulations. This will minimize the negative impact of pesticides on plants, the environment and human health, without compromising the effectiveness of the protection program.


Please note that the products included in the SCS-Tech® protection and nutrition programs are compatible with most plant protection products and agrochemicals except:

  • biological products with live bacteria;
  • preparations containing sulfur in active form (colloidal sulfur, sulfur-lime decoction);
  • calcium nitrate;
  • inkstone;
  • copper sulfate;
  • manganese sulfate;
  • zinc sulfate;
  • bordeaux mixture;
  • elemental iodine;
  • thiram;
  • all polysulfidesWhen integrating these products into SCS-Tech® programs, they should be used in a separate tank mix, alternating with Silver Mix® and Silver Phos® treatments.
