Tricho Immun

Dose: 1-3 kg per hectare, 100 grams are enough for two backpack sprayers

Please take particular care to consider the dosage and the time of application (temperature, time of day) to avoid any risk of scorching. Avoid application on days when the sun is at its strongest. Clean the application equipment with clean water before and after spraying.

 

How does the Hungarian-developed Tricho Immune help?

  1. Accelerates plant development, resulting in increased yields
  2. Enhances plant immunity against fungal pathogens
  3. Tightens and seals the wounds of the plant, protecting it from pathogens
  4. Protection against stress factors e.g. drought, hail
  5. It is important that it only protects the plant against fungi that invade the plant e.g. in apples it is not effective against powdery mildew but it is good against varroasis, in grapes it is not effective against powdery mildew but it is good against peronospora and botrytis.

 

How to apply?

To ensure that adequate protection is established, Tricho Immun should therefore be applied as early as possible during the plant’s growing season. It is recommended that this be done twice.

The following options are available:

1. Soak the graft before planting. 1 kg Tricho Immune in 100 litres of water.

2. Autumn wash spraying when there is still green foliage

3. During winter pruning, to absorb and close wounds (wax)

4. In early spring, when there is already green foliage

5. At flowering, when the plant is most sensitive

For use in a backpack sprayer, we recommend the 100-gram pack of Tricho Immun, which is sufficient for two 10–15-litre tanks. As with all products, spraying should be carried out at temperatures below 22 °C, preferably in the late afternoon or early morning.

Do not mix with other products, only with Danuba Garden algae products e.g. Asco Alga or Kelpak.

Why should I choose this product?

  1. Trichoderma original habitat of the strain: it is important that the product contains Trichoderma These fungi live and reproduce in the soil or within plants. The Tricho Immun product contains two such Trichoderma There are strains that have been isolated from Tokaj vines; in other words, they are naturally present in the plants, so they exert their beneficial effects for a longer period and tolerate local weather conditions well. They can be applied directly to the plant. Soil-dwelling Trichoderma strains, on the other hand, are best applied to the soil.
  2. Germ count: the amount of germ in the product can also be used as a basis for comparison. The higher, the more effective!

❄️ Freezing temperatures, minus degrees and Tricho Immune

The ingredients in Tricho Immun Trichoderma The spores of these strains are capable of surviving temperatures as low as -20 °C, but they can only grow and reproduce at temperatures above 0 °C.
Conidial spores (simply ‘spores’) have a low water content. In cold conditions, the cells’ metabolic activity simply ceases (i.e. they do not grow), but as long as the membrane remains intact, they retain their viability. If ice crystals form (whether in an aqueous environment or inside the cell), the cytoplasmic membrane ruptures, causing the cell to die. Spores contain very little water, so ice does not form inside them even at relatively low temperatures. At -80 °C in a special solution (glycerine), or when rapidly frozen at even lower temperatures (liquid nitrogen), they can be kept alive for a very long time.

Storage of the product

It retains its quality for at least 18 months when stored in its original packaging at temperatures between 5 and 30 °C. Once opened, it should be used as soon as possible; however, if tightly resealed and stored in a cool, frost-free place, it can be used for up to 6 months without any loss of quality.

 

🤔 Did you know?

Did you know that these Trichoderma strains were developed by Prof. Dr. Erzsébet Karaffa and Dr. Csilla Kovács of the University of Debrecen? The research started in 2015 in the Tokaj wine region.

It is important to note that there are two types of Trichoderma It contains varieties that have been protected and patented in Hungary. These varieties are the Trichoderma afroharzianum (TR04) and the Trichoderma simmonsii (TR05). 

💚 Trichoderma These are fast-growing fungi that produce aerial mycelium. Their spores are scattered across the culture medium or arranged in concentric circles, forming greenish colonies (Figures 1–2). When grown on PDA Agron, the TR05 isolate produced a yellow pigment that diffused into the culture medium. The TR05 isolate is characterised by a strong ability to produce pigment. Both isolates produce dark green conidia.

💚 Trichoderma species have been known since the 1930s and are considered potential biopesticides, with some strains being used against plant pathogens. Their rapid growth displaces pathogens from the plant environment (space parasitism). As microparasitic fungi, they can destroy hyphae of other fungi (e.g. plant pathogens)

 

Experimental results

Our strains were able to colonise the cordon of older plants, the cuttings (both rootstock and rootstock), the roots and the whole woody/soft plant tissue after root treatment in field experiments with different applications. In vivo experiments have demonstrated that the strains are able to persist in many crops (apple, grapes, field crops) and can be re-isolated later.

We have shown that grapevines treated with strains showing symptoms of Grapevine Trunk Disease (GTD) showed a reduction of the characteristic symptoms of the disease on the vegetative organs, i.e. the treatment was curative. This effect is supported by our study in which we also detected necrotic woody tissue of treated grapevines of different varieties containing pathogenic fungi, which were also strains used in the treatment. Our strains are able to displace pathogenic fungi not only on the surface, on the surface of pruning wounds, but also inside the woody tissue. Trichoderma treatment can provide long-term symptom management, killing and control of pathogenic species.

🌱 How does it work?

The fungi in Tricho Immun take 24–48 hours to penetrate the plant; it is best if there is no prolonged, soaking rain during this time. Penetration into the plant can be accelerated if the product is applied together with an organic substance, such as seaweed (Kelpak or Asco Alga).

 

📦 Storage after disassembly 

It is important that the temperature does not exceed 20 °C and that the contents are not damp or wet, as the spores will then start to germinate. (In other words, the fridge isn’t the best option, as the humidity is too high.) We recommend using a well-sealing preserving jar that is large enough to hold the opened bag. Alternatively, seal it with a paper clip or a bag clip.

 

✨ Detailed description

The Hungarian-developed Trichoderma Mushrooms are the latest game-changer in renewable and sustainable gardening. They protect not only against stress factors, but also against fungal pathogens. You could even call it a newly developed ‘superweapon’ for plant protection. But it doesn’t just aid plant protection; it also stimulates plant growth, which speeds up crop yield.

 

Tricho Immun should be applied as soon as possible, ideally at the time of pruning, but no later than before flowering. It takes a few hours for it to be absorbed by the plant and then a few weeks for it to spread throughout the plant. After all, by the time flowering begins, we need to ensure that our plant is fully protected, as this is when it is at its most vulnerable.

 

🍇 The vine and Trichoderma

The Tricho Immune large-scale The dosage is 1 kg/ha. This means that professional grape and fruit growers apply 1 kg per 10,000 m².

Pruning as soon as possible and/or when the grapes are in leaf, start treating the grapes to prevent fungal diseases with the following recipe: 50 g Tricho Immun + 2 dl Asco Alga/ In a 10–15-litre backpack sprayer. Tricho Imun requires a wound surface or green foliage surface to penetrate the tissues, whilst the organic matter content of Asco Alga helps it to remain on the foliage and enter through the stomata. As Tricho Immun is available in 100 g packs, we recommend repeating the treatment once more, before flowering.

Any unused quantity should be stored tightly sealed in the fridge and used within 3 months.

 

👩‍🔬 Scientific research: the effectiveness of Trichoderma in grapes

Our regional representative visited the Kecskemét Research Institute to observe the Trichoderma the beneficial effects of the fungus on grapevines. Powdery mildew was the predominant infection in the greenhouse under study. Whilst some downy mildew was also observed outdoors, when Tricho Immun and the SoftGuard our products have been used preventively, both have performed very well.

Discharge tip: After about two weeks of Tricho Immune treatment, the SoftGuardot it provides effective protection for the plants.

 

🌱 Practical advice, Tricho Immune to the lawn:

It is important that the Tricho Immune does not run off the green leaves onto the soil, as the product is absorbed through the plant.

That is, if the lawn is very wet then Tricho Immune can run off, if it's just barely wet then it's not a problem.

Ideally, the water should wash the dust and other impurities from the lawn leaves, and then Tricho Immune is applied to the "clean" leaves.

It is also recommended to add Tricho Immune Asco Algae also, at a spray dose of 2dl per 10 litres of spray to feed and strengthen the lawn organically.

 

 

 

🌳 For green foliage

As part of our ideal plant protection strategy, especially if there is currently sufficient green canopy available to take up the active ingredient, we strongly recommend the use of Tricho Immune at a dose of 1 kg/ha. As a supplement to this treatment we recommend Asco Alga product at a dose of 1 l/ha, which has several advantages:

  • It promotes the adherence and absorption of Tricho Immune in plants.
  • It nourishes and strengthens plants, increasing their resistance.
  • It thickens plant moisture, which contributes to better frost resistance in plants.

 

🍁 Autumn treatment

If this autumn treatment is achieved in time, it is recommended to repeat the treatment in the spring flowering period, but at a reduced dose of 0.5 kg/ha.

If the autumn treatment is no longer feasible, it is recommended to apply Tricho Immune at a dose of 1 kg/ha at the following times:

  • At the time of pruning, when the pruning wounds allow the product to penetrate more easily into the plant tissues and start working.
  • When the first leaves appear, when the plants are ready to take up the active substance.
  • Around flowering, when plants are most susceptible to various diseases and pests.

As an additional plant protection suggestion, it is recommended to apply every 2-4 weeks after flowering SoftGuard which further enhances the plants' ability to defend themselves against various environmental stresses.

 

⚔️ Tricho Immune against fungal diseases

Tricho Immun can effectively protect plants from fungal diseases when used as a preventative treatment. Even if treatment is delayed and symptoms have already developed, it can still help the plant. After removing the infected parts following symptoms of disease, fresh dieback or blight, spraying the cut surfaces and the living plant stimulates growth (new shoots) and strengthens the plant. It has already saved several fruit trees (apricot, apple, pear, sour cherry) and ornamental plants (magnolia, rose)!

🌸 Tricho Immune and flowering 

 

  1. Usability in flowering: Tricho Immune can also be used in flower, but pre-emergence application is recommended. This is because the fungus (which is the active ingredient in the preparation) is allowed to multiply in the plant during the pre-treatment period, thus protecting the flower more effectively against diseases such as monilia and botrytis.
  2. Use of oily copper sulphur after Tricho Immune: The use of copper sulphate in oil after Tricho Immune is not excluded, but it is important that the two treatments are not used at the same time. It is recommended to apply the copper about two weeks after Tricho Immune, as by then the fungus has already entered and multiplied in the plant, so the sulphur will not harm it.
  3. Interaction with the Polyversum fungus: Research to date has not investigated the fungus contained in the Polyversum preparation (Pythium oligandrum) interaction. It is known that other Pythium During studies carried out on these species, the Trichoderma The fungus infested and ate the Pythium-. Given that the two fungi have different mechanisms of action, and that the fungus contained in Polyversum requires a relatively high level of moisture and a temperature above 10 °C, the outcome of the interaction cannot be predicted in advance.

 

❗️Active ingredient content

Our products containing living matter (e.g. beneficial bacteria and fungi) usually have a shelf life of 18 months. The active ingredient content of these products is in accordance with the NÉBIH authorisation certificate until the end of the product's shelf life. This means that the product can be marketed until the end of the expiry date.
After the expiry date, the active ingredient content/efficacy of the product will not be zero, but will only slowly decrease. Thus, if one wishes to continue to use this type of product after the expiry date, a higher dose of this type of product should be applied, but it is not necessary to throw it in the trash.
As Danuba Garden imports these products in a continuous process, identical products with different expiry dates may be available in the webshop and in the shops. We therefore recommend that you only buy products that will be used in the coming months.
These products must also be stored at temperatures between 5 and 25 °C, away from direct sunlight (in the shade)! For more details, contact our advisers.

🍄 More about the product

 

Unlike Trifender, the two Trichoderma strains in Tricho Immun live in the plant, not in the soil. In experiments at the University of Debrecen, they were able to recover Trichoderma fungi from grapes even after 4 years. So the fungus remained in the plant, but in what quantity is another question. It is not guaranteed that after many years the amount is still sufficient to provide sufficient protection against the pathogenic fungi (similarly, a human or animal vaccine does not provide protection forever).
.
The Trichoderma fungi in Tricho Immun can be taken up by the plant through the soil, but they do not survive only in the soil. It cannot spread from one plant to another. It enters the plant best through pruning wounds, other wound surfaces and stomata on the foliage, but experiments have shown that it can also enter the soil through bark cracks and wounds on woody parts in the soil or in the defoliated state, but at lower doses and with a lower probability.
.
Experiments on the interaction between mycorrhizae and trichoderma are currently being carried out at the University of Debrecen. Studies so far show that they do not inhibit each other's function. Trichoderma lives in the plant and mycorrhiza lives on the root and in the root, so the different application areas prevent them from acting in the same place.

 

 

🍄 contained in Tricho Immune Trichoderma our tribes can be said to be:

 

  1. They have significant mycoparasitic potential against all the endogenous pathogens that cause necrotic lesions studied.
  2. Effective against powdery mildew on the surface of leaves after a single sulphur treatment (Kecskemét, 2020 test results)
  3. They stimulate the development of the host plant and increase the yield.
  4. As a space parasite, it can seal wounds against pathogens - effective protection
  5. Increases the immunity and resistance of the plant
  6. They are well adapted to their native environment and well adapted to the host plant, which ensures their proper growth in plant tissue in plantations. They have been successfully re-isolated from the plant several years after treatment.
  7. They are well adapted to agricultural growing conditions. Most of the fungicides tested did not inhibit their growth - good colonisation and long-term effects can be achieved even with fungicide use.
