About two weeks after sowing, (14th April) we shifted the focus to below the surface again. We introduced Koppert solutions ๐™๐™ง๐™ž๐™–๐™ฃ๐™ช๐™ข and ๐™‘๐™ž๐™™๐™ž ๐™‹๐™–๐™ง๐™ซ๐™–. These two solutions focus on the root zone of the crop and have key benefits as follows:

Trianum is a bio fungicide for the control of soil-borne diseases such as Fusarium spp. Trianum establishes itself around the roots and protects them against diverse pathogens. It also improves the root system through the formation of more root hairs so that water and nutrients can be taken up better.

Vidi Parva is a natural, plant-based bio stimulant designed to enhance root development, allowing plants to absorb nutrients more efficiently. It also increases soil microbial activity, promoting a healthy rhizosphere that supports disease resistance.

When roots are strong, everything above the surface has the power to thrive.
This is where resilience truly begins.

Did you know? Spical (Neoseiulus californicus) works as a preventive solution for spider mites. Spical builds up populations quickly and is effective in warm environments, making it ideal for greenhouse crops.
Spical is available in various packaging options to match your needs:
โ€ข Spical plus and Ulti-Mite sachets for steady, controlled release for preventative establishment
โ€ข Bottles for flexible application for targeted interventions
โ€ข Buckets for efficient deployment for large-scale applications

โœ…One predator
โœ…Multiple targets
โœ…Flexible packaging.

Meet Spical! (Neoseiulus californicus) - an effective natural enemy of various species of mites, including the two-spotted spider mite (Tetranychus urticae). As a key player in biological pest control, this predatory mite helps growers protect their crops sustainably.
How does Neoseiulus californicus work?
โ€ข Specializes in targeting the larval and nymphal stages of spider mites.
โ€ข Also consumes spider mite eggs, ensuring population control.
โ€ข Detects prey through webbing and leaf damage rather than sight.
โ€ข Feeds by sucking out the contents of its prey.

Why use Neoseiulus californicus for spider mite control?
โ€ข Highly adaptable to different environments, including warm and dry conditions.
โ€ข Works as both a preventive and curative solution for spider mite infestations.
- N. caifornicus is generally more torelant to non-target pesticides compared to other predatory mites
โ€ข Complements other predatory mites, for integrated pest management (IPM).
โ€ข It is a natural, sustainable alternative to chemical pesticides.

Spidermites can create pressure rapidly with their quick reproduction and short life cycles.๐Ÿ•ธ
A small infestation can escalate into severe crop damage in a matter of days - especilly during the hot and dry weather.

Often found on the underside of leaves, spider mites feed by piercing plant cells and extracting sap, leaving behind yellowing tissue, reduced photosynthesis, and, eventually, plants collapse.

As pressure builds:
โŒ๏ธLeaves turn yellow and weaken
โŒ๏ธWebbing forms, covering entire plants
โŒ๏ธPopulations multiply rapidly across all life stages

Both the nymph and adult stages contributes to the pressure you see in your crop.
With increasing resistance to chemical control, reactive approaches are no longer enough.
Effective spider mite management starts with understanding the pest.
The video below shows the lifecycle of the spidermite. Watch to learn more.

With every adult that is trapped, you dramatically reduce the chances of future generations of thrips from damaging your crop. This helps to redecuce the chemical pesticide sprays needed. Try sticky traps today for effective management of thrips and other flying pests!

Nothing sticks like a ๐Ÿ’ช Did you know? Horiver sticky cards help growers detect pests such as Thrips and other flying insects early, allowing for timely and effective biological control. This reduces the need for chemical interventions! By regularly monitoring and counting pests, growers gain insights into when pests are present in their crops, how their populations develop, and when they are likely to peak. This proactive approach ensures better preparation for potential pest infestations.

Meet Lurem! A powerful solution for the management of adult Thrips. Lurem contains a kairomone, which is slowly released from the dispenser once opened. This makes adult thrips more active. They appear from their shelters and are more attracted to the sticky traps. Learn how to use Lurem in the video below!
