Physan 20 For Use On African Violets:


‘NEW MEDICINE FOR OLD ILLS’

Mrs. J.B. (DoDe) Whitaker
DoDe’s Gardens, Inc.

Among the new friends of the African violet is Physan 20.

This totally safe material ‘controls’ fungus, virus, bacteria, mildew and algae. Physan can literally be used in your plant room and also to clean your kitchen and bath.

Physan is a biodegradable product with no odor and one which really goes into mixture easily. It does not leave a residue or marking on the plant foliage. This product is a wonderful overall sterilizing agent.

The following are some of the many ways in which Physan can help you:

  • Spray workbenches and working surfaces before, during and after planting with 1 tablespoon of Physan per gallon water.
  • Wash pots and flats, then soak them in solution of 1 tablespoon Physan per gallon water for 10 minutes. Do not rinse.
  • Soak cutting edges of tools in 1 teaspoon Physan per gallon water before use.
  • Keep hands and tools damp with Physan solution when working with plants so not to spread disease. Use 1- teaspoons Physan per gallon of water.
  • Soak small plantlets for 1 minute in solution of 1- teaspoon Physan per gallon of warm water to help eliminate dampoff. Spray with this mixture once a week to prevent dampoff while the plantlets are becoming established.
  • Spray or immerse plant and pot in solution of one tablespoon Physan to four gallons of water to ward off and control fungal problems.
  • Adding one teaspoon of Physan to each gallon of water used in floral arrangements will extend the flower life and control odor.
  • Physan is helpful in preventing algae on capillary matting when used at the rate of 1 tablespoon per gallon of water and placed in the reservoir and/or on the matting with each watering. Three fourths of a teaspoon of Physan may be added to each gallon of water used in individual reservoirs. This also acts as a fungicide.
