Benefits

& Features

PureCrop1 Bottle - Ready-to-Use

Beneficial Friendly

Does not harm bees when used as directed.
Friendly to people, animals, and environment when used as directed.

Notes on nanotechnology

Gentle enough for young plants, seedlings, and sensitive varieties
A natural emulsifier that is compatible with most other garden products
Although made from oils, PureCrop is not oil; it’s a clever rearrangement of nanoscale molecules and their electrical charge.
Even diluted with water, PureCrop will never separate. Instead, the charged micelle constantly fight against each other, keeping the formula mixing indefinitely.
Use it as a wetting agent/adjuvant mixable with most other garden products at low dilution rates.

About PureCrop1

Simplify your plant health care routine with PureCrop1, the organic, plant-based solution that combines a powerful insecticide, potent fungicide, and multi-use surfactant in one formula. PureCrop1 offers multiple benefits due to its technology and unique mode of action: membrane disruption.

  • At only 1-4 nanometers, the micelle may be small, but it packs a powerful punch. Unlike oils that suffocate sap-sucking pests, the micelle is attracted to the bacteria in their gut, penetrating their cellular wall and disrupting enzymes. This leaves beneficials unharmed due to different enzymes found in their gut.
  • Say goodbye to mold and mildew with PureCrop1’s membrane disruption technology. Our formula contains thousands of micelles that destroy a piece of the cell wall and cause membrane disruption in the spore, leaving a thin physical barrier that prevents mold and mildew regrowth for up to ten days.
  • Add PureCrop1 as a surfactant to maximize sprays. PureCrop1 can nano-emulsify products and deliver them more efficiently. Due to the colloidal micelle's positive head and negative tails, the micelle can attach to polar and non-polar particles and is extremely stable, making it compatible with most other products.

Although PureCrop1’s active ingredients are corn and soybean oil, it is not oil! Our formula breaks down the thick, clogging characteristics of the oil to fatty acids into the size of nanoparticles. Our clever rearrangement of the colloidal micelle and their electrical charge makes PureCrop1 effective against pests and diseases while friendly for use around people, animals, and the environment.

PureCrop1 FAQs

    Or choose a FAQ to quickly find the help you need

    Can I mix PureCrop with other products?

    Although we recommend it as a standalone product, PureCrop is compatible with all other products and will emulsify any immiscible substance.

    How often can I spray?

    We recommend one application every week for most plants. You can spray more often if you like, you will not harm your plants. If you are fighting an infestation, visit our product label page for problem-specific instructions.

    Is PureCrop a fertilizer?

    No, we can reduce the amount of inputs by making them more available to the plant by encapsulating minerals and delivering them directly to the phloem and xylem where they can be used immediately by the plant.

    Do I need special equipment to use PureCrop1?

    No, conventional spray systems including electrostatic equipment work perfectly. There are, however, recommended application rates per acre for row crops to achieve efficacy. Refer to our label for more information.

    Is PureCrop and PureCrop1 the same?

    Yes, in 2022 the PureCrop1 brand was acquired by West Coast Ag Products and was rebranded as PureCrop. You can read about the details in the press release.

    What's in the package?

    Liquid concentrate.

    • Weight per gallon: 8.6-lbs
    • Total Tote Weight: 2,605-lbs
    • Pallet of 2.5-gallon bottles has a total of 36 cases equalling 72 individual bottles weighing a total of 1,660-lbs.

    Does PureCrop leave residue?

    Solid particles are attracted to the micelle and held in suspension. Any wash-off completely biodegrades at the atomic level into nitrates, soil constituents, and water.

    You have corn and soybean oil as active ingredients, does it work like other oils?

    No, unlike oil PureCrop uses the fatty acid molecules that make up corn and soybean oil to manufacture our product. Visit the blog to learn more.

    When is the best time to spray?

    The best time for any foliar application is in the early morning or early evening when temperature is low and humidity is higher, giving more time for the plants to absorb the product. PureCrop can be sprayed in direct sunlight if necessary without concern for phytotoxicity due to the huge surface area to mass ratio.

    How close to harvest can I use PureCrop?

    PureCrop can be used in all stages of growth, from seedling up to and including the day of harvest. PureCrop1 can be used as a post-harvest wash to remove any unwanted residue.

    Is PureCrop only good for foliar application?

    Nope! There are many benefits to adding PureCrop to the root zone including increased health and vigor, reduced stress, increased resistance to soil pathogens, lower nutrient use and faster ripening.

    Suggested Use?

    • Mixing: Fill a container with fresh, clean water. Add PureCrop1 concentrate. Shake or stir. Spray or use as a root drench. 

    • Dilution Rates: Pest/Mold/Mildew Control – 1%-2% solution every 7 days. Increase frequency and ratio to 2% when pressures rise.

    • To maintain long-term benefits, spray 2 oz per gallon once a week.

    • Use as your dormant spray at 2 quarts per 100 gallons with other chemicals or 1 gallon per 100 gallons by itself. Apply less product and achieve better results

    • The more prolonged PureCrop1 is on the plant, the higher the efficacy rate. Accordingly, we suggest spraying either early morning or late afternoon as the formula quickly dries when sprayed in direct sunlight or heat.

    • If there is rain in your forecast, apply a foliar spray on your plants at least two hours before rainfall to protect them from pest, mold, or mildew and reduce yield loss. Rainfast within 2 hours, PureCrop1 defends the integrity of your crop through the storm.
