Infestations begin in late spring and can continue throughout the year.

MITES / SPIDERS

mites

Propolis Kyphos

Rock dust

Kyphotris Bio

Sulfur Flow

The most massive attacks occur in summer due to the presence of weather conditions more favorable to the pest (hot-dry)

COBINES

Linseed oil

Propolis Kyphos

Soft soap

The infestations begin from the beginning of spring, the moment of greatest appearance of the juvenile forms is between July and August (periods of low humidity).

Whiteflies

Soft soap The infestations begin from the beginning of spring, in a warm, humid and poorly ventilated environment

BUZZERS

Linseed oil

Propolis Kyphos

The juvenile forms appear in May-June to complete the generations in late autumn.

The greatest damage occurs in the middle of summer.

FRUIT FLY

Rock dust

Soft soap

The time of greatest appearance of the adults that lay their eggs in the fruits is in spring-summer

Powdery mildew

Sulfur Flow

Cifoblock Bio

Propolis Kyphos

It prefers warm humid climatic-environmental conditions (optimum temperature 18-25°C and high humidity).

DOWNY MILDEW

Cifoblock Bio

Kyphotris Bio

Copper

Cifoblock Plus

The germination of the spores takes place in conditions of high humidity and is favored by optimal temperatures of about 20°C.

SMOOT

Soft soap The infection develops following the production of honeydew produced by sucking insects (aphids, scale insects, etc.)

SCAB

Copper

Sulfur Flow

The spores responsible for the infection are formed in not very high temperature conditions but in conditions of high atmospheric humidity, poor air recycling.

RUST

Sulfur Flow

Rock dust

The spores responsible for the infection are formed in conditions of not very high temperatures, 18-20°C, but in conditions of high atmospheric humidity (spring-early June)

BUBBLE

Cifoblock Bio

Copper

Cifoblock Plus

The fungus is favored by conditions of high humidity and temperatures between the end of winter and the beginning of spring between 7 and 28°C.

MONILIA

Kyphotris Bio

Cifoblock Plus

Depending on the genus, it can be active already at low temperatures (5-10°C) causing extensive infections at different times of the season.

The onset of the disease is favored in case of humidity, fog and long rains.

GRAY MOLD

Kyphotris Bio

Copper

Optimal conditions for the onset of the disease are high environmental humidity (90%) and temperatures between 16-24°C.

Warm, humid, rainy springs are ideal for the fungus to spread.

COLLAR/ROOT ROT

Tannin The fungus thrives in humid environments and with temperatures ranging between 18°C and 25°C.

PRUNING WOUNDS

Cicatrin Plus Wood rot phenomena can occur following pruning, grafting or damage to the trunk or branches due to environmental or mechanical causes.
