TriCoat
TriCoat is a seed coating product containing Trichoderma asperellum which is a ubiquitous beneficial soil fungus. Due to its ability to grow fast and multiply in the soil, it quickly colonises plant roots, offering the germinating seed protection and immunity against most of the soil borne pathogens.
Apply TriCoat by first sprinkling water onto the seeds to slightly wet them, add TriCoat powder and mix thoroughly to ensure all seeds are evenly coated, air dry under shade for 30 minutes then plant.
Use of TriCoat as a seed treatment protects the plant roots from attack by soil borne pathogens at the initial germinating stage. TriCoat is also a bio-fertiliser and hence promotes root growth and crop yield.
Shelf life: 6 months from date of manufacture in original, unopened container stored in a cool dry place (6 – 10o C).
