Trident’s ”INHIB” technology combines the essential elements – Zinc, Copper & Silicon
with naturally occurring acid Chelate polymers to
Energize the plant through improving photosynthesis , Chlorophyll production and sugar
formation.
Regulate water movement
Aids the production of enzyme to improve Protein synthesis
Improves Auxin development.
“reduces plant susceptibility to disease”
This results in a healthier plant, enhancing the plants natural immune system to “reduce
plant susceptibility to disease”
Trials have shown Trident can reduce susceptibility Powdery/Downy Mildew, Phytophthora and
bacterial diseases without the harmful residues that can exist when using traditional chemicals.
