Mikro-Myco, Highly Concentrated Mycorrhizal Fungi –11 Endo/Ecto Mycorrhizae, Water Soluble Powder for Exponential Root Growth (4 oz)

I’ve bought this product 3 times now, the third, I bought the bigger bag I liked it so much. Mycorrhizae innoculants are very cutting edge “technology” in the gardening scene. Most gardeners have never even heard of it much less know its purpose. A litttle background, mycorrhizae of all different species form symbiotic relationships with plants (symbiotic means beneficial for both “parties.” In this case:the plant AND the fungi as well as bacteria. The fungi attaches to the plant roots and grow little strands that look like roots even deeper than roots can grow. The mycorrhizae can access water that the plant cannot and waters the plant, makes nutrients available, and other things in exchange for sugars produced by the plant during photosynthesis). Anyway, this product has made a huge difference to my vegetable garden plants in several ways. Although this summer we were in a state of extreme drought, I found my plants didn’t need to be watered as much prior to using this product. I also found plants were growing more vigorously without the use of fertilizers. Overall I’m super impressed by the successfulness observed!

I will definitely be buying this again when my first pouch gets low. Ever since adding this to my semi Hydro solution, it seems like the roots of my plants are going crazy.

Value for money, good source of nutrients

I applied this to my plants about a week ago. I had already put them into the ground, so I couldn't apply the product directly to the roots, so I mixed the product with water in my watering can, and fed it to the plants that way. I'm planting a lot these days because it's the beginning of gardening season and because I just moved into a place with lots of vacant space for plants. I posted two pictures, one is a groundcover plant that received the soil supplement, and the other is the "control group" - the same plant with no supplement. The first one seems to be bigger and healthier, but obviously it's hard to know whether that's due to chance or due to the fungus working their magic. I any case one packet goes a long way so it couldn't hurt to try!

I highly recommend adding this if you garden. Here is a photo of the difference in some of my plants. These are cucumber plants. All were planted on the same day and are the same age. Only difference in them is the larger greener ones on the right I used the Mikro Myco on them. The smaller more yellow ones on the left, I did not (I wanted to see if it made a difference). Huge difference. Bags are small but a little goes a long way since you do not need a lot per plant.
