Frequently asked questions
Can Agriguard stop damping-off in my pepper nursery?
Yes. Damping-off is one of its main targets. Drench the nursery soil before sowing and again after the seedlings emerge.
Can I mix Agriguard with Ridomil or another chemical fungicide?
No. Chemical fungicides can kill Trichoderma. Apply them separately, a few days apart.
Can I use Agriguard on soybean seed treated with inoculant?
Trichoderma does not harm Rhizobium bacteria, but check the label of your inoculant before treating seed with both.
