How To Use IPL Bactvipe — Application Instructions:
Measure the required quantity of this Bactvipe fungicide carefully as per the dosage table.
For foliar spray, mix 5 ml per liter of clean water and stir gently until completely uniform.
For seed treatment, coat seeds with 10 ml per kg, mix evenly, and shade dry before sowing.
For seedling dip, dissolve 250 ml in 400 liters of water and soak the seedling roots for 30 minutes before transplanting.
For soil drench, mix the required dose with farmyard manure or compost and broadcast uniformly across the field.
For drip irrigation, dissolve in clean water and run through the drip system during the normal irrigation cycle.
Never mix this Bactvipe biological fungicide with chemical fungicides or bactericides in the same tank.
Best Time to Use:
Use IPL Bactvipe biological fungicide at sowing through seed treatment and at transplanting through seedling dip for best season-long protection. For foliar spray, use in the early morning or late evening when temperatures are cool.
Frequency of Application & Re-Entry Period:
Frequency of Application: Use at sowing through seed treatment and at transplanting through seedling dip or soil drench. Repeat as a foliar spray every 15 days during active disease pressure. One treatment at sowing and one at transplanting is generally sufficient for season-long protection.
Re-Entry Period: Safe to re-enter treated areas immediately after use.
Compatibility: Do not mix Pseudomonas fluorescens with chemical fungicides, bactericides, or copper-based products. Always maintain a gap of at least 5 to 7 days between IPL Bactvipe and chemical fungicide use.
Safety Precautions & Handling:
Wear gloves and a mask while measuring and handling this product.
Never eat, drink, or smoke during mixing or use.
Wash all exposed skin with soap and water after finishing.
Keep children and farm animals away from the treated area.
Store Pseudomonas fluorescens away from food, animal feed, and drinking water sources.
Dispose of empty containers as per local waste disposal guidelines.
Storage Instructions:
Keep IPL Bactvipe biological fungicide in the original sealed container in a cool, dry, shaded area away from direct sunlight and heat — high temperatures reduce the viability of the Pseudomonas fluorescens organisms.
Never store near chemical pesticides, fertilizers, or food items.
Keep completely out of reach of children and farm animals.
Storage Temperature: Below 25°C for best shelf life
Shelf Life: 2 years from the date of manufacture.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) — IPL Bactvipe Pseudomonas Fluorescens 2.0% A.S:
Q1. What is IPL Bactvipe used for?
This bactvipe biological fungicide controls seed-borne, soil-borne, and air-borne fungal and bacterial diseases, including Root Rot, Wilt, Blight, Leaf Spot, Anthracnose, Alternaria, and Downy Mildew across Paddy, Wheat, Maize, Cotton, Tomato, Chilli, Potato, Grapes, and all major crops throughout the entire crop cycle.
Q2. How does Pseudomonas fluorescens control fungal diseases?
This Bactvipe fungicide enters the plant's vascular system and spreads throughout the crop. Pseudomonas fluorescens produces natural antibiotic compounds and lytic enzymes that suppress harmful fungal and bacterial pathogens — while simultaneously triggering the plant's own natural defense system against future infections.
Q3. Can IPL Bactvipe biological fungicide be mixed with chemical fungicides?
No — never combine this Bactvipe biological fungicide with chemical fungicides, bactericides, or copper-based products, as these chemicals destroy the Pseudomonas fluorescens organisms. Always maintain a minimum gap of 5 to 7 days between IPL Bactvipe and any chemical fungicide use.
Q4. Is Pseudomonas fluorescens safe for organic farming?
Yes — Pseudomonas fluorescens is a naturally occurring beneficial soil bacterium with no synthetic chemicals. IPL Bactvipe biological fungicide leaves no harmful residues on crops and is fully approved for organic farming, IPM programs, and export quality production.
Q5. How long does IPL Bactvipe biological fungicide remain active in the soil?
Once established through seed treatment or soil drench, Pseudomonas fluorescens continues to colonize the root zone and provide biological disease protection across multiple crop growth stages — giving season-long disease suppression from a single well-timed treatment.
