Improve the quality of your water and plant material
X3 is a powerful disinfectant that’s safe to use on plant material and has a Zero-Hour REI.
- X3’s three active ingredients — hydrogen peroxide, peroxyacetic acid, and octanoic acid — provide unparalleled strength while buffering the strong oxidizing effects of the hydrogen peroxide. This leads to a lower risk of phytotoxicity when used as directed.
- Eliminates algae and bacterial/fungal pathogens in your water, soil, and greenhouse surfaces.
- Reduces the use of expensive chemical fungicides in your operation
- Reduces the loss of plants to disease
- Saves money. Highly concentrated formula means you’ll use about 60% less product than competing brands. Plus the smaller container size makes it easier to store and handle.
- Leaves no visible residue
- Curative for foliar and root diseases
- Compatible with many other compounds. See label for details.

FAQs about X3
X3 is an oxidizing compound used for the prevention and control of diseases and algae in commercial greenhouses, garden centers, landscapes, nurseries and interiorscapes.
X3 has three active ingredients: Hydrogen Peroxide, Peroxyacetic Acid and Octanoic Acid.
Octonoic acid acts as a buffering agent and has a synergistic effect with hydrogen peroxide and peroxyacetic acid, enabling the other active ingredients to work harder while simultaneously reducing the amount of hydrogen peroxide in the formula.
Hydrogen peroxide is a very strong oxidizing compound. It reacts immediately on organic matter and can cause phytotoxicity. By reducing hydrogen peroxide to 6.7% of the formula, X3 has a much lower risk of phytotoxicity on live plant material when used as directed at the curative rate.
Oxidants interact with chemical groups on organic matter by a redox reaction (oxidation-reduction) which changes the chemical structure of the organic matter.
X3 controls algae, bacterial diseases, and fungal diseases. X3 attacks and destroys pathogens and algae in your water, in your soil, on surfaces and on your plants.
The concentration of X3 allows Phyton Corporation to package X3 in smaller containers, requiring less storage space and making it easier to handle. X3 is packaged in 3/4-gallon (96 oz.), 4-gallon and 12-gallon containers.

- Curative drench for root diseases
- Sanitizer for tools and all greenhouse surfaces
- Inject into your water main as a water treatment to control algae and disease
- Inject into your misting lines to control algae and diseases in your mist area
Yes. You can use an existing injector to apply X3. X3 should not be mixed with other compounds or fertilizers in a stock tank. Once X3 and other compounds are injected into the water, they will mix and won’t cause issues with your plants.
Any normal stock tank can be used with X3.
X3 is compatible with many other compounds. Refer to the label for more information on compatibility before applying X3.
Refer to the X3 label, which is available in the X3 labels above.
Phyton Corporation has test strips to measure the residual level of X3. Using test strips and confirming that you have a residual level of X3 assures you that X3 has controlled all pathogens and algae in your water.
The best place to measure the residual level of X3 is at hose end.
X3 should be used by any grower who wants to grow a quality disease- and algae-free product in a disease-free environment.
When used as directed, X3 will:
- Improve the quality of your water and plant material
- Eliminate bacterial plant pathogens in your water, soil, and greenhouse surfaces
- Eliminate algae in your water, soil and on greenhouse surfaces
- Eliminate fungal plant pathogens in your water, soil and on greenhouse surfaces
- Reduce the use of expensive chemical fungicides in your operation
- Reduce the loss of plants to disease
