Excited to be one of 125 field trials this year. So far everything looks great.

Not just our opinion.

In field trials, Pinion has provided comparable powdery mildew control to conventional fungicides. Unlike those, Pinion is designed to support overall, long-term plant health.

What's more: We're running 125+ active field trials testing Pinion on a wide variety of plant/disease combos. Stay tuned for lots of results coming out this year!

After focusing on soil health and establishing a permanent ground cover over the past few years, we are now trialing a transition away from Mancozeb and other conventional pesticides. Pinion is a mixture of citric acid and cinnamon oil. It's safe for applicators and workers in the field. It is recommended to spray in the evening, which is a first for me. Now, I just need to schedule a mid-day nap 😃
