Tomatough Biostimulant (PI Industries) - The Viral Defense Expert
Stop Viruses Before They Start with Red Seaweed Technology.
Tomatough is a revolutionary bio-product designed to protect your crops from devastating viral diseases like Leaf Curl and Mosaic Virus. Unlike standard growth boosters, Tomatough works like a vaccine for your plants. Powered by unique Red Seaweed (Kappaphycus alvarezii) and SUPR™ Technology, it activates your crop's inner immune system, making it tough against viruses and environmental stress.
Best For: Preventing viral infections in Tomato, Chili, Okra, Papaya, and Cucurbits.

- ⏱️Prophylactic Protection: Acts as a preventive shield. By applying it early (15-20 days after transplanting), you "train" the plant to fight off viruses before they cause damage.
- ?️Stops Viral Replication: Helps stop the virus from multiplying inside the plant, keeping your crop green and productive even if whiteflies are present.
- ⏳Higher Marketable Yield: Reduces the number of deformed or small fruits caused by disease, ensuring you get top-quality A-grade produce for the market.
- ?️Abiotic Stress Resistance: Helps plants survive extreme heat, drought, and salinity by regulating water loss and root health.
- ?Safe & Export Friendly: Made from natural sources with no chemical residues (MRL Exempt), making it perfect for export-quality vegetables.

How It Works: Mode of Action
Tomatough uses SUPR™ Technology to deliver special molecules that mimic a "warning signal" to the plant without causing actual harm.
[Image of plant immune system activation pathway]- Recognition: When sprayed, the plant's leaf receptors immediately detect the special Red Seaweed molecules.
- Activation: This triggers the production of Salicylic Acid (SA) and Jasmonic Acid (JA)—the plant's natural defense hormones.
- Defense: The plant strengthens its cell walls and produces antiviral proteins, blocking the virus from moving or multiplying.
Result: A "Primed" plant that fights off infections naturally.
Target Crops & Pests
| Crop | Target Pest(s) |
|---|---|
| Tomato | Tomato Leaf Curl Virus (ToLCV) |
| Chili / Pepper | Chili Leaf Curl Virus (ChiLCV), Viral Complex |
| Cucurbits / Papaya / Okra | Mosaic Virus, Ring Spot Virus, Yellow Vein Mosaic |
Dosage & Application Guide
The Golden Rule: Always follow the "Dose per Acre" for accurate results.
Dosage per Acre, Litre, & Pre-Harvest Interval (PHI)
| Crop | Dose (ml / Acre) | Water (L / Acre) | Dose (ml / Litre) | PHI (Days) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Tomato & Chili | 400 ml | 150 - 200 L | 2 - 2.5 ml | 0 (Exempt) |
| Cucurbits | 400 ml | 150 - 200 L | 2 - 2.5 ml | 0 (Exempt) |
| Okra & Papaya | 400 ml | 150 - 200 L | 2 - 2.5 ml | 0 (Exempt) |
*PHI = Pre-Harvest Interval: The minimum number of days to wait between the last spray and harvesting.
How to Apply: Best Practices
- Timing: Apply 3 times for best results.
1st Spray: 15-20 days after transplanting (Establishment stage).
2nd Spray: 30-35 days (Vegetative stage).
3rd Spray: 45-50 days (Flowering stage). - Mixing: Compatible with most insecticides and fungicides. Avoid mixing with highly alkaline copper products or strong herbicides.
- Coverage: Ensure full coverage of the leaves. The medicine must enter the leaf pores to activate the immune system.
- Safety: Always wear PPE (gloves, mask, goggles). Wash hands thoroughly after use.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. Does Tomatough cure a plant that is already fully infected?
No. Tomatough is a prophylactic (preventative). It works best when applied before the virus attack peaks. It prevents the virus from spreading, but it cannot "remove" a virus from a dying plant. Start spraying at 15 days for the best protection.
2. What is the difference between Biovita and Tomatough?
Biovita (Brown Algae) is for general growth, root development, and size. Tomatough (Red Algae) is specifically for disease resistance and viral immunity. Use Biovita for growth and Tomatough for health.
3. Can I use Tomatough on other crops besides tomato?
Yes! It is highly effective on Chili, Capsicum, Okra, Cucumbers, and Papaya, which suffer from similar viral issues.
4. Can I mix it with insecticides for Whitefly control?
Yes, this is actually recommended. Combining Tomatough (internal defense) with an insecticide (external vector control) gives the best protection against Leaf Curl Virus.
5. Is it safe for organic farming?
Tomatough is derived from natural seaweed and is generally considered safe and residue-free, making it ideal for export crops where chemical residue is a concern.
