Bordeux Mixture
Hi
Bordeux mixture is a mixture of Copper sulphate and hydrated lime. For preparing mixture you need to know the concentration and where it is to be applied for example for preparing 0.5 % mixture following methodology is to be used:
Preparation of Bordeaux mixture (0.5 % or 1:1:100)
1) Dissolve 50 g of powdered copper sulphate in 5 litres of water in a plastic
bucket.
2) Prepare milk of lime in another plastic bucket by dissolving 50 g of quick lime in
5 litres of water.
3) Pour the copper sulphate solution and the milk of lime from the above two vessels
into a third one by gently stirring the mixture all the while. This will give a final
volume of 10 litres of 0.5 % strength.
4) The mixture is to be tested before use for the presence of free copper, which is
toxic to the plant. Dip a polished knife in the mixture. If the blade shows a
reddish colour add lime to the mixture till the blade does not show staining on
dipping.
NB: For 1 % solution add 100 g Copper sulphate and 100 g quick lime
For copper sulphate you can contact following and lime is CHUNA.
