So being a new grower I thought I would post here so as not to burden the whole community with my seemingly constantquestions.

Doing some research and wondered if anyone has used Virukil? I have added the information below. Where not specifically on point to the cucumber mosaic, I thought it might help. Looks like it is potentially only available in China. Maybe there is a similar product here in the U.S.A. I assume not since I have not read about it here, but couldn't hurt to ask. Anyone?

Question: How to cure MOSAIC VIRUS in PAPAYA plants?
Answer: use ViruKil.

ViruKil could also be used for curing the following virus in crops:
- MOSAIC VIRUS: PAPAYA, TOBACCO, PEPPER.
- Virosis: Tomato, Chilly, Beans, Cabbage
- MRDV: Corn
- Dwarf Mosaic Virus: Corn
- Vine Wilt: Melon
- Powdery Mildew: Wheat, Cowpea, Melon
- Bacteria Blight: Rice
- Bacterial Leaf Spot: Rice
and many more destructive diseases and virus in crops.

ViruKil is a HIGHLY EFFECTIVE and NON-TOXIC.

ViruKil has drastically improved the yield and quality of various crops up to 40% compared with using other types of foliar fertilizers available in the market.

Petman, first we will all wait for Tremor to let us know what he thinks...LOL...second, is it sold in the USA, and if so under what brand name? Seems to be a cunindrum going on here..."significantly regulates the growth function and drastically improves quantity and quality" ... . These two statements seem to oppose each other. Hope it works well for you, grow em big!!! Peace, Wayne

A Chinese claimed antibiotic chemical with no known American university efficacy data having been published.

So far antibiotics have never proven to be effective against plant virus (or any other viruses for that matter). But if I had an infected plant growing in isolation & had some of this material then it's worth a shot.

I'm not really hopeful but I hate to discourage folks either.

If such a new "cure all" was available then the major ag publications & universities would be spewing forth their accolades....& they're not.

Figured as much. No need for it now but am always interested in researching prior to actually needing the chemical, fertilizer, etc. If I see more or test results, I will let everyone know.
