Grow Safe Microbes are a balanced combination of cultured soil microorganisms that help mobile minerals and other essential nutrients for uptake by plants. Beneficial bacteria and fungi are essential to soil fertility – allowing plants to better access nutrition, improve water efficiency and overall plant performance. Soil microbes play essential roles in maintaining healthy soils and healthy plants. They are involved in almost all nutrient transactions within the soil. The bulk of these transactions are vital for nutrient availability and exchange to our plants – be it for cropping, pastural or horticultural operations.
These microbial species include: Azotobacter – Free-living nitrogen fixing bacteria. Bacilli – Bacteria that assist in soil conditioning, accessing phosphorus reserves and building soil structure. Mycorrhizae – Fungi that assist in plants’ mineral nutrient uptake, improve soil health and nutrient recycling processes. Pseudomonas – Soldier bacteria that help protect the plant root zone and solubilise phosphates within the soil profile. Rhizobium – Symbiotic bacteria that fix nitrogen in the root nodules of leguminous plants. Trichoderma – Symbiont fungi that improve plant health. Grow Safe Soil Microbes is supplied as a wettable powder and can be applied as a liquid foliar spray.
