OMRI-listed product consisting of 3 carefully selected species of endomycorrhizae.
In healthy soils, mycorrhiza is a naturally occurring fungus known to aid in the uptake of nutrients by its symbiotic relationship with the feeder roots of plants. University and field trials have documented significant improvement in the establishment of roots and subsequent growth by inoculating the soil or planting media with mycorrhiza.
Garden-Ville Mycorrhizal Fungi is composed of 3 species: Glomus intraradices, G. Mosseae, and G. Aggregatum. The product is blended so that the 3 species are included in equal proportions, or 20,000 propagules of each. The carrier is a Montmorillonite Clay. It is 90 to 93% Montmorillonite and 7 - 10% Quartz (crystalline silica). It is classified as an agricultural carrier. We use this material because it is porous and the mycorrhizae can impregnate the small spaces.
