MYCOGENESIS
MycoGenesis™, a sister product to BioGenesis™, contains our best blend of beneficial microbes with added mycorrhizal fungi, and is designed especially for use in root dipping and deep root injection.
 
What is mycorrhizal fungi?
The term mycorrhizal -- which literally means fungus (myco) root (rhiza) -- refers to the symbiotic relationship between certain fungi and plant roots. These fungi receive sugars from the plant, and in return, aid the plant in the uptake of water and nutrients in the soil.
 
The mycorrhizal fungi form branch-like structures called hyphae, which extend the surface area of root hairs to provide more access to resources available in the soil. Hyphae are smaller than root hairs, and therefore able to penetrate further into the soil to seek out nutrients and water. When the resources in the immediate area are depleted, the hyphae simply extend further into the soil to find new supplies.
 
Mycorrhizal fungi + beneficial bacteria
With the increased usable surface area provided to the plant by the mycorrhizal fungi, the plant has greater access to the resources present in the soil; and by adding the Tainio Biologicals, Inc. blend of beneficial bacteria, those resources are broken down through enzymatic action, facilitating easier uptake by the mycorrhizal fungi.
 
The beneficial bacteria also benefit from the enzymes secreted by the fungi. A symbiotic relationship is formed wherein plant, mycorrhizae, and bacteria all benefit and flourish.
 
 
APPLICATION:
• Potted Plant Drench: Mix 1 gram of MycoGenesis™ into 1 gallon of water. Fully saturate soil with the mixture to ensure good contact with plant roots. Use approximately 10 grams of MycoGenesis™ per cubic yard of soil mix.
• Row Crops: Apply in seed row at planting at a rate of 1 pound MycoGenesis™ per acre.
• Root Dip: For trees or plants, mix 1 pound of MycoGenesis™ in 20 gallons of clean water. Dip roots into solution and plant.
• Root Injection: For trees, mix 1 pound of MycoGenesis™ in 20 gallons of clean water. For established trees, inject 64–128 ounces per tree into the root zone around the drip-line of the tree.
 
• For Best Results: Add 12.5 oz. of NutraNeed or a Pepzyme™ product for every 1 pound of MycoGenesis™ applied.
