OxiDate® 2.0 Broad Spectrum Bactericide & Fungicide - 2.5gal - OMRI Listed®

Contact Oxidation Bactericide & Fungicide with No Resistance Risk

Fungicide programs built entirely around enzyme-inhibiting chemistry eventually run into resistant pathogen strains, since a single mode of action gives a pathogen population a consistent pressure to adapt against. OxiDate 2.0 breaks that pattern with a peroxyacetic acid mode of action that denatures bacterial and fungal proteins and enzymes directly on contact, an oxidative process pathogens have no known route to resist.

Applied at 32 to 64 oz per 100 gallons, this 2.5 gallon container fits standalone use or as a tank-mix partner alongside residual and systemic fungicides, with a zero-day PHI that keeps it usable right up to harvest.

Key Features & Benefits

• Peroxyacetic acid mode of action — denatures pathogen proteins and enzymes on contact, with no known resistance development.
• Curative and preventive activity — controls active infections and helps prevent new outbreaks on a regular spray schedule.
• Zero-day PHI — usable right up to the day of harvest.
• Broad disease spectrum — labeled against Alternaria, anthracnose, bacterial blight, Botrytis blight, downy mildew, Fusarium wilt, late blight, Phytophthora, powdery mildew, rust, and Rhizoctonia, among others.
• No harmful residues — breaks down into acetic acid, water, and oxygen after application.

Who Should Use This

Commercial growers and greenhouse operators managing bacterial and fungal disease pressure who want a resistance-management rotation partner with zero-day PHI flexibility are the direct fit for OxiDate 2.0.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is peroxyacetic acid and how does it work?

Peroxyacetic acid is an oxidizing compound formed from hydrogen peroxide and acetic acid that destroys microbial cells by oxidizing their structural proteins and enzymes on contact. It breaks down afterward into acetic acid, water, and oxygen, leaving no persistent residue.

Can OxiDate 2.0 be tank mixed with other fungicides?

Yes, it integrates into spray programs as a tank-mix partner with residual and systemic fungicide chemistries, where its contact activity provides immediate knockdown alongside a partner product's extended protection. Conduct a jar compatibility test before full-scale mixing.

How does the re-entry interval differ between spray and non-spray use?

The REI is 1 hour when applied as a foliar spray, the primary use case. For non-spray applications such as pre-plant dips, the REI is 0 hours.

What is the application rate for this product?

Apply at 32 to 64 oz per 100 gallons, adjusting within that range based on disease pressure and the crop being treated. Always follow the current product label for crop-specific rates.
