Fungicide

Flint

Flint^® is a broad-spectrum systemic fungicide with long-lasting preventative protection against important diseases in pome fruit, grapes and cherries. It works by inhibiting spore germination and mycelial growth, and provides extended preventive protection by protecting the leaf surface, penetrating plant tissue and redistributing through vapour action.
