Endophytic trichoderma for covered cropping
PlantMate Greenhouse is a readily soluble WP, utilising registered strains of Trichoderma in a formulation designed for nursery and covered cropping.
The formulation is concentrated and designed to impart maximum bio-activity into the rootzone.
PlantMate Greenhouse can be mixed in a header tank and used through a spray bar in a nursery environment. Tank should be kept agitated.
PlantMate Greenhouse can be dosed through a venturi system and fertigated into any indoor cropping system. The formulation ensures excellent dispersion as the active ingredient stays in suspension for longer and allows accurate dosing.
Nursery: Mix at 2g/L and apply through the spray bar when seeding trays.
Glasshouse / Indoor Crops: 150-250g/ha.

What is it and how does it work?
PlantMate Greenhouse was developed to help covered cropping and nursery customers who want to use the bio-activity contained in Unite or PlantMate Drench but with a formulation that contains less clay particles and which is more readily soluble.
PlantMate Greenhouse is readily soluble and interacts with developing and growing roots. By applying around a seed, it colonises the seedling plug and will grow readily through the media and interact with the developing roots. By application at this early stage, PlantMate Greenhouse can implement the endophytic root connections that can be so beneficial for the plant in the long term.
In protected cropping, PlantMate Greenhouse will colonise the rhizosphere and stimulate new root growth whilst supporting a healthy and balanced rootzone.

Nursery
In nursery applications, PlantMate Drench offers several key benefits. By applying PlantMate Drench into seed trays at planting, it promotes better and more even emergence of seedlings, leading to improved survival rates. This not only enhances the overall health of the nursery stock but also reduces the need for chemical fungicides in the nursery, contributing to a safer environment for staff and end users.
The application of PlantMate Drench in the nursery helps to raise healthy plants. By protecting seedlings and supporting healthy root and foliar growth, PlantMate Drench plays a significant role in elevating the overall plant health and mitigating against abiotic stresses.
The ability of PlantMate Drench to promote root growth is particularly advantageous, as it results in the development of hardier and more stress-tolerant seedlings, which perform better in the retail environment.
