FAQ for Black Hole
What diseases does Black Hole control?
Black Hole controls Leaf Blast, Neck Blast, Anthracnose, Wet rot, and Powdery mildew on rice and chilli crops through its dual-mode combination of Picoxystrobin and Tricyclazole.
How does the combination in Black Hole work?
Picoxystrobin inhibits mitochondrial electron transport (complex III) providing systemic protection, while Tricyclazole inhibits melanin biosynthesis specifically against blast pathogens — together delivering curative and protective activity.
Is Black Hole effective against Neck Blast in rice?
Yes, Black Hole is highly effective against Neck Blast (Pyricularia oryzae) — the most devastating rice blast type. Apply preventively at panicle initiation for best protection of the crop yield.
When should Black Hole be applied on rice?
Apply Black Hole at tillering stage for Leaf Blast control and again at panicle initiation for Neck Blast protection. Early preventive application gives better results than curative applications.
Is Black Hole suitable for chilli disease management?
Yes, Black Hole controls Anthracnose and Powdery mildew in chilli — two economically important fungal diseases causing significant fruit quality and yield losses in chilli cultivation across India.
