Myco-Plantmatter

Description

Myco-Plantmatter is a Mycorrhizal fungi that has existed since the first plants appeared on dry land more than 450 million years ago. They form a close relationship with your plants’ roots beneficial to all. Called Mycorrhizae from the Greek words “mukés“, meaning fungus, and “rhiza,” meaning roots. Mycorrhizal fungi act as a secondary root system that draws both nutrients and moisture from the soil. Also, it helps protect your plant from root diseases and other nasty soil pests. Another hard hitting benefit is that it aids with aeration and moisture uptake for your plant.

Benefits

Enhance water and nutrient uptake (especially phosphorus) Reduce irrigation needs Reduce the need for fertilizer Increased drought and pathogen resistance Increase plant health and stress tolerance Higher transplanting success Enhance root growth Tolerance to salt Tolerance to root rot Increase yields and crop quality Helps maintain soil quality and nutrient cycling Helps control soil erosion

Without mycos, plants struggle to get nutrients from their roots. The reason being is that their roots require direct contact with the soil in order to absorb the nutrients effectively. But plant roots only grow so small. Fungi are incredible in that they are able to wedge their way in between individual bits of soil, covering the entire soil substance. This allows the plants much more access to food than they would have gotten on their own due to the increased surface area.

Absorbing nutrients like phosphorus and magnesium, mycorrhizae are able to directly feed the plant’s roots with all the goodness it needs.

Your plant gives the mycos sugar and in turn, it receives nutrients, a symbiotic relationship!

Protect plants against multiple diseases and toxins with mycorrhizae. They form an invaluable part of ecosystems around the world. In many places, whole forests and ecosystems wouldn’t exist at all without their mycorrhizal friends. The next time you’re walking in a forest and you see a mushroom growing out of the ground, be thankful and remember that there’s a whole world buzzing along beneath your feet.

Use Myco-Plantmatter in conjunction with Biodyne 401 to build a quality living soil.
