What are mycorrhizal propagules? Propagules are an average count of spores, hyphae, & root fragments per gram. The more propagules that are available per gram ultimately decreases the amount of inoculant needed to achieve a successful root colonization. You may ask yourself why root fragments are considered a part of the propagule count. Endo-mycorrhizae form a symbiosis within the root cell, compared to ectomycorrhizal that just stays external. Endo-mycorrhizae produce spores from within the roots and hyphae, all viable sources of mycorrhizae that can colonize your root system upon application.

Mykos helps new plantings, reducing transplant shock by stimulating root growth and making more nutrients available. Mykos forms hyphae which increase the root mass resulting in more absorption of nutrients and moisture. The fungal network can transport nutrients over large distances and deliver them directly into the root cell. Plants supply Mykos with energy in the form of carbohydrates that are produced during photosynthesis. Individual plants are connected with other plants through this mycorrhizal network, and can share nutrients, sugars and water.

Applied to the roots at the time of planting, bored down, top dress and deep water into the root zone of existing plants; Mykos creates a “sponge-like” mass around the root system helping roots pull up more nutrients and water!

Mykos protects your plants against drought & heat stress. As well as keeping harmful pathogens from making root contact. Mykos can also improve the soil structure both in clay soil and sandy soil. Mykos also helps break down organic compounds and convert them into plant available plant food.

Mykos has been used to break the last 10 World-Records for ‘Xtreme plant growth, including a 2,261.5 lb. pumpkin in 2016!

Add to hole, directly around the plant roots. Mykos must come in contact with the roots. Set plant and backfill. Remember to water.

Containers :

1 – 3 gal container ……. 1 – 2 tbsp

5 – 7 gal container ……. 4- 6 tbsp

10 – 20 gal container … 1/2 cup

25 – 50 gal container … 1 cup

100 gal container …….. 2 cups

Rock Wool Cubes :

1. Using a small stake or fork, poke several 1/4 – 1/2″ holes in the bottom of the plant hole.

2. Add 1 – 2tsp to hole, directly under plant roots.

3. Set plant remember to water.

In Ground & Raised Bed :

1 – 2 tbsp per plant around each plant hole or directly to roots.

​

Sowing Seed :

1 tbsp per foot

1/2 tsp per cell / plug

For Xtreme Results :

Water with Azos & Xtreme tea. Double applications rates and mix into top 6″ of soil surrounding the plant hole.

Caution :

Large Roots Are Expected!
