We strongly recommend planting with Rootgrow, however there are certain types of plants that benefit more than others, such as: flowering or fruiting hedging; evergreen species (it takes more effort to make an evergreen leaf than a deciduous leaf) and tall pot grown plants when the root to shoot ratio is off balance.

In that time they attach themselves to the plant’s root system and grow out rapidly into the soil, searching for nutrients and water. They essentially become part of the plant’s own root system. All RGpro tubs contain sachets of gel powder to be used on bare-root plants if required and a handy 25ml measuring scoop Neither fungi nor plants could survive in many uncultivated situations without this mutually beneficial arrangement. These fungi are living organisms and will live with the plant, sourcing a continued nutrient supply for its entire lifetime – a truly sustainable plant nutrition solution.

Mycorrhizal fungi is also beneficial when growing from seed, including lawns, and bulbs The desired consistency will depend on the root density of the plant species used. The appearance of the solution, when mixed, should be similar to wallpaper paste. For more dense or fibrous roots, the solution should be thinner.Do not use if fungicidal chemicals have been applied recently as the fungicide will kill the beneficial fungi In its simplest sense, mycorrhizal fungi do everything plants roots do just BETTER in an entirely natural and organic way.
