Trichoderma harzianum Rifai strain T-22 & Trichoderma virens G-41

OMRI Listed. RootShield Plus Is A Preventive Biological Fungicide For Control Of Major Root Diseases Such As Fusarium, Phytophthora, Pythium & Rhizoctonia.
_______________________________________

An OMRI listed and EPA registered preventative fungicide - RootShield Plus WP contains two species of beneficial fungi that deliver an extended range of disease control. The two species are:

Apply RootShield Plus WP directly to seeds, transplants or other propagation materials including soil and planting mixes. The unique fungal blend in RootShield Plus WP provides 3 months of preventive control for Phytophthora, Rhizoctonia, Pythium, Fusarium, Thielaviopsis, and Cylindrocladium. Trichoderma helps prevent and control soil-born fungal diseases by colonizing plant root systems and boosting biological diversity in the root zone.

 

RootShield Plus WP grows onto plant roots, "shielding" plants from soil-borne diseases. This forms a physical barrier preventing root damage, while the fungi in RootShield Plus WP release enzymes that damage fungal pathogens. RootShield Plus is also available in a granular formulation.

REI: 0-hour, 4-hour when used as a dip or dust.

PHI: 0-day pre-harvest interval for all listed crops.

Suggested Uses: For prevention and control of major fungal pathogens and resultant diseases on greenhouse and nursery vegetables, herbs, ornamentals, fruits, conifer tree seedlings, various trees, legumes, oil seeds and peanuts. This product can be used in conjunction with certain fungicides. Refer to the product label and product compatibility sheet for details.

REVIEWS:

HOWLER AND ROOTSHIELD BIOFUNGICIDES
Apr 11, 2022  |  By Jerry Ainsworth

Delivered expeditiously and well packaged. These products most likely do seem to work and protect Cymbidium orchids against our endemic Fusarium and Rhizoctonia species. I am following a yearly rotation of using these agents; one year will use Howler and the next year RootShield and then the next year Hower, etc. I believe these products are far safer and far less dangerous than the systemic fungicides such as Heritage or Empress or others.


ESSENTIAL
Feb 11, 2020  |  By meredith brooks

If you have any problems with fusarium, blight, wilt etc., esp. with tomatoes & peppers, this item is essential for long term survival and crop production. Combine it with a few active strains of mycorrhiza and no problemo!

I have high hopes for RootShield Plus. We'll see in the coming months and years if it staves off Phytophthora on two Heritage Live Oaks.
