Grower's Ally® Fungicide - 24oz - Ready-to-Use

Citric Acid Fungicide & Bactericide for Powdery Mildew, 24oz RTU

Powdery mildew is one of the most persistent fungal problems in any grow room, and many synthetic fungicides carry pre-harvest intervals or leave residues that complicate testing programs. Grower's Ally Fungicide is built on food-grade citric acid instead of synthetic chemistry, giving it both fungicidal and bactericidal activity against powdery mildew and common bacterial pathogens. The OMRI Listed, FIFRA 25(b)-exempt formula tests clean of residual solvents, synthetic pesticides, and heavy metals, and is labeled right through harvest day.

This 24oz ready-to-use bottle sprays straight from the container, a fit for growers who need fast spot treatment without measuring or mixing.

Frequently Asked Questions

What makes citric acid effective against powdery mildew?

Food-grade citric acid is a GRAS compound that disrupts fungal cell membranes on contact. That direct action gives it activity against powdery mildew without relying on systemic synthetic fungicide chemistry.

What does "tests clean" mean for this product?

Grower's Ally Fungicide is formulated without residual solvents, synthetic pesticides, or heavy metals. That means treated plant material doesn't carry detectable residue from the product itself, a common requirement in commercial testing programs.

Can it be used during flowering?

Yes. Grower's Ally Fungicide carries no pre-harvest interval and is labeled for use through harvest day, including the flowering stage. Always follow the product label's specific application instructions.

Does it also control bacterial disease?

Yes. The citric acid formula has bactericidal activity against common bacterial plant pathogens in addition to its fungicidal action on powdery mildew.

How do I choose between the ready-to-use and concentrate versions?

Both use the same citric acid fungicide and bactericide formula. Pick the ready-to-use bottle for spot treatment straight from the container, or the concentrate to dilute with water and cover more canopy per bottle at a lower cost per application.
