MYKOS is a special type of fungus (mycorrhizae) that bonds with the roots of plants and extends their root network up to 1000% (yes 1000%!) giving more access to water, nutrients and defence against pests and diseases while increasing the overall biological activity of the plant and the surrounding soil/amendment. Mycorrhizae is the backbone of any biological system.
Another relationship 400+ million years old, plants and mycorrhizae have been developing their special symbiotic relationship since plants came out of the oceans.
More than just giving your plants more access to nutrients, water and pathogen defense (resulting in bigger plants and better yields) mycorrhizae have been shown to network between plants, sharing resources and information to the plants that need it the most. This has been described by scientists as "nature's internet" or "the brain of nature". Indeed, some mycorrhizal networks have been shown to be over 1000 acres in size and 1000's of years old!
Research continues but mycorrhizae is beginning to be used heavily in farming to remediation of land and has been called "the holy grail of agriculture".
We know it's a very special little fungus and it will give your plants the chance to reach their full potential. The thing about MYKOS is it's really meant to be there.
- Improves root structures
- Increases nutrient uptake
- Promotes natural biology
- Great for vegetables, fruits, herbs, and flowers
Documents
Q: Why is Mykos a single species of mycorrhizae rather than a more diverse option?
A: Mykos is designed as a single-species product because testing has consistently demonstrated improved results with this approach. This is partly due to the reduced competition among microbes for the same root spaces and food sources.
Q: What are the recommended application rates for Mykos based on container size?
- For 1-3 gallon containers: 1-2 tablespoons
- For 5-7 gallon containers: 4-6 tablespoons
- For 10-20 gallon containers: 1/2 cup
- For 25-50 gallon containers: 1 cup
- For 100 gallon containers: 2 cups
Q: Does Mykos need to be reapplied after the initial transplant application?
No, Mykos remains active for the lifespan of your plant and continues to develop unless you apply fungicides or high-phosphorus fertilizers in an inorganic (chemical or mineral salt) form. However, in short-term crop cycles (such as 12-14 week indoor grows), reapplying Mykos, especially in the form of Mykos WP, can provide significant benefits. It accelerates root colonization and spore reproduction, optimizing root growth during the vegetative and flowering stages.
Q: Is Mykos an organic product?
A: Yes, Mykos is certified organic by both OMRI (Organic Materials Review Institute) and the CDFA (California Department of Food and Agriculture).
Q: Is it possible to harm plants by using more Mykos than the recommended amount?
A: No, Mykos is a blend of biology and inert ingredients, and using more than the recommended amount will not harm your plants.
Q: Can I incorporate H2O2 (hydrogen peroxide) into my feeding regimen when using Mykos?
No, it's not advisable to use H2O2 as it can kill the beneficial fungi and bacteria present in Mykos.
Q: How many propagules are in 1 tablespoon of Mykos?
A: In 1 tablespoon of Mykos, which weighs 12.5 grams, there are at least 3,750 propagules.
