United Hexa Super Hexaconazole 5% SC Systemic Fungicide for Powdery Mildew & Sheath Blight Control

United Hexa Super is a systemic fungicide from United Chemicals that contains Hexaconazole 5% SC (Suspension Concentrate) as its active ingredient. Hexaconazole belongs to the triazole chemical group and works by stopping the growth of disease-causing fungi from inside the plant. It is designed to prevent and control common fungal diseases such as powdery mildew and sheath blight, which can seriously reduce crop yield and quality if left untreated.

This fungicide is suitable for a wide range of crops including mango, grapes, rice, groundnut, cotton, cumin, vegetables, and pulses. It provides both protective and curative action, meaning it can be used to protect healthy plants from infection as well as to treat plants that are already showing disease symptoms. The systemic nature of the product means it is absorbed by the plant and moves within its system, offering longer-lasting protection compared to contact-only fungicides. United Hexa Super is a practical, cost-effective choice for farmers looking for reliable fungal disease management across multiple crops.

Key Benefits

• Systemic action protects the plant from root to leaf, giving thorough coverage against fungal diseases.
• Effectively controls powdery mildew and sheath blight, two of the most damaging fungal diseases in Indian crops.
• Provides both protective and curative action, so it works on healthy plants and on plants already showing infection.
• SC (Suspension Concentrate) formulation is easy to mix and apply with standard spraying equipment.
• Helps maintain healthy crop growth and supports better yields by reducing fungal stress.
• Cost-effective disease control with significant savings compared to many market alternatives.

How It Works

United Hexa Super works through the active ingredient Hexaconazole, which is a triazole systemic fungicide. When sprayed on the crop, the product is quickly absorbed by the plant and moves within its system, reaching different parts of the plant including leaves and stems. Once inside, Hexaconazole inhibits the synthesis of ergosterol, a vital component of fungal cell membranes. Without ergosterol, fungal cells cannot grow or multiply, which stops the disease from spreading and eventually kills the fungus.

Because the product is systemic, it offers protection from within the plant rather than just on the surface. This means it can reach fungi that have already entered the plant tissue, giving it a curative effect in addition to protecting healthy tissue. The result is long-lasting protection that reduces the need for frequent reapplication and helps the crop stay healthy through critical growth stages.

Technical Specifications

Recommended Dosage & Application

The recommended dosage of United Hexa Super is 250 to 300 ml per acre, applied as a foliar spray. The exact dosage depends on the crop and the severity of the disease. Mix the measured quantity thoroughly with the required amount of water as per the dosage for your crop, and apply using a suitable sprayer to achieve fine, even mist coverage over the affected plants. Repeat application as necessary based on the severity of infestation and crop growth stage.

When to Use

Apply United Hexa Super at the first sign of fungal infection or as a preventive spray before disease is expected to appear. Early application gives the best results because the product can protect healthy tissue and stop the disease from establishing. For best control, spray when the weather is dry and there is no rain expected for at least a few hours after application, so the product can be absorbed properly. Repeat the application as needed based on the severity of the disease and the growth stage of the crop. Regular monitoring of the crop helps you catch disease early and time your sprays for maximum effectiveness.

Compatibility

United Hexa Super can generally be mixed with other fungicides, insecticides, and fertilizers. However, always perform a small-scale compatibility test before large-scale application. Ensure the pH of the spray solution is within the recommended range (usually between 5.5 and 7.0) to avoid any chemical reactions that could reduce effectiveness. Add United Hexa Super to the tank after diluting other products in water to prevent any adverse reactions.
