Trifecta Crop Control SC is a Super Concentrated pesticide, fungicide, and miticide. It treats and prevents problem mites, aphids, whiteflies, fungus gnats, thrips, powdery mildew, botrytis, and other pests and fungal/mildew issues.

This product cannot be sold in Idaho.

Oil and water: two liquids that have never played well together… until now.

Other oil-based products require the addition of a surfactant or wetting agent to reduce the surface tension, which allows for more even coverage on the plant. Unfortunately, this requires constant and rigorous shaking which still does not result in a full even coverage.

Trifecta Crop Control’s unique high-shear homogenization process is so effective, it creates TOTAL emulsion of the oils in water, which means you do not need to mix with additional products. Just one product... an all-in-one solution.

Inspired by a traditional Japanese hand saw, the Barebones Living Timber Saw provides a quick, clean approach ideal for cutting smaller pieces of wood at a campsite, cutting off branches and deadwood, and pruning trees.

While traditional hand saws rely on a pull-push motion, the simple curved blade and aggressive teeth of the Timber Saw require a push-strike motion. The result is a super effective, safe, and fast cut. The ergonomic and durable walnut handle fits smoothly in your hand for perfect, even pressure and pulling strokes. 

The Barebones Living Timber Saw includes a 900D polyester sheath that weathers real-world use while protecting the blade from dulling. The stainless steel belt clip supports easy carrying and accessibility, while the strong handle strap restricts the blade from slipping or moving. Accented with full-grain leather and copper to complement the rest of the Woodsman Collection.
