The difference between the use of potassium permanganate and carbendazim

Use of potassium permanganate and carbendazim

When growing flowers, use potassium permanganate and note that it should be used as a bactericidal disinfectant to prevent and control diseases and pests. Carbendazim also has such an effect and its functions are very wide.

The difference between potassium permanganate and carbendazim

Potassium permanganate is a strong oxidant. When used, it is generally used to sterilize seeds, flower pots and soil. The pure oxygen it secretes can kill bacteria, but the effect time is actually very short. Under normal circumstances, the bactericidal effect of potassium permanganate can only last about 2 hours.

Carbendazim is a widely used fungicide that has a good preventive and therapeutic effect on diseases and insect pests. Generally, carbendazim can be used for foliar spraying and seed and soil disinfection.

Compared with potassium permanganate, carbendazim is less toxic and should be used with caution. The second is the efficacy of carbendazim. The effect of carbendazim can last for about 7 days, and its efficacy is still very long-lasting, but the consequence is that many bacteria will develop resistance to it, making it difficult to completely eradicate.
