products available for greenhouse
growers. Some are even OMRIlisted
including Kalmor from OHP.
KALMOR is a dry flowable formulation
with 46% copper hydroxide. REI
for greenhouse uses ONLY is 24
hours with eye wash stations (refer
to the container label for further
information). For outdoor uses the
REI is 48 hours.
Kalmor works at multiple sites.
Absorbed copper disrupts the enzyme
systems of the fungal and bacterial
pathogens. Kalmor works both as a
curative and a preventative fungicide.
For best control, apply Kalmor when
disease symptoms first begin.
Kalmor may be used on ornamental
plants grown in commercial
greenhouses and nurseries, and on
conifers, vegetables, small fruits
and nuts. It can be applied as a
foliar spray or drench on ornamental
plants at 0.5 to 2.0 pounds per 100
gallons. If Kalmor is applied in a
spray solution having a pH of less
than 6.5, phytotoxicity may occur. Do
not tank mix with low pH products
like Aliette or B-Nine. Extended
periods of wet weather or very high
humidity may result in copper burn.
Kalmor has been safe in our trials
and has shown high efficacy against
many bacterial diseases (our current
focus with this product).
