Endo 120
Mycorrhizal Inoculum

(Glomus intraradices)

Mycorrhizal fungi form the foundation of ecosystem function in most terrestrial vegetation. A network of mycorrhizal fungi permeates the soil and interconnects the roots systems, including different plant species. These beneficial fungi mediate nutrient cycling and other soil processes, create a diverse flora, and play a key role repairing damaged soil. Saying mycorrhizal fungi are important is a serious understatement. It is more accurate to say that mycorrhizal fungi are ESSENTIAL for ecosystem function. Because these fungi are vulnerable to damage, they are often missing from weedy, eroded, or overgrazed land, and always missing from freshly graded land. It takes months or years for these fungi to return on their own. Meanwhile, the site is not suited for anything but a few colonizing species, often weeds. Applying bulk, granular END0120 MYCORRHIZAE when planting or sowing is a beneficial treatment for most disturbed sites.

Benefits of Mycorrhizal Inoculation:

  • A self sustaining ecosystem
  • Better soil structure and permeability
  • Greater nutrient & moisture uptake resulting in faster plant growth
  • Documented increases of up to 500% in seedling survival
  • Resistance to invasive species Greater plant diversity

Where to use:

Any disturbed soils where microbial activity is low and plant species that form symbiotic relationships with mycorrhizae are to be reintroduced. (A list of economically important plants responding to ENDO 120-Mycorrhizae is included on the reverse.)

A - Limitation of the natural root system on a young seedling.

B - Extended area penetrated by the mycelium network (ectomycorrhiza) from which moisture and nutrients can be absorbed by the plant.

 

Over 90% of the world's plant species form mycorrhizae and require the association for maximum performance in the field.
