Description

Athena IPM‚ (Integrated Pest Management) is an all-in-one pest control and fungicidal formula‚ that kills many soft-bodied insects, as well as controlling, killing, and curing fungal infections such as powdery mildew (leaf mould).

  • No artificial pesticides/fungicides
  • Complete powdery mildew management from control to cure.
  • Can be used from seedling to week 5 of flowering/fruiting, in any growing medium/system
  • Compatible with all fertilizers and additives.

Designed for foliar application and derived from natural ingredients grown in the U.S.A, Athena IPM penetrates plant crevices and leaf surfaces where unwanted biotic diseases seek to colonize, killing all stages (adults, nymphs, larvae, and eggs) on contact. Its also highly effective in treating common fungal infections.

To ensure its effectiveness, we recommend using a pump sprayer for application.

How to use:

  • Evenly coat the entire plant from stem to leaves. Wear appropriate protective gear (PPE).
  • Treatment - Dilute‚ 24-32ml per litre of water. Begin treatment with the lower dose - increase if the issue persists. For most pests, at least 3 applications spaced 3 days apart is required. Spray with lights off or in the early morning sun.
  • Prevention - Dilute 16-24 ml per litre of water. Apply 2-3 times per week for optimal results. Spray with lights off or in the early morning sun.
  • Root Drench - Dilute 1.3-2.6 ml per litre‚ of water. Saturate media completely until slight runoff.
  • Please refer to the feed schedule for more information (see downloads below).

Best Practices:

  • Shake well before use.
  • Turn off fans to ensure even coverage
  • Turn off lights/apply in the early morning sun to reduce the risk of damage
  • Use clean measuring instruments--do not put anything into the bottle.
  • Store closed in original packaging at a temperature between 45° F and 85° F.
