This dynamic new product contains several species of Bacillus and Streptomyces that break down normaly unavailable iron and release it to the plant.\u003cbr\u003eTreated plants will be larger and more vigorous, have a robust root system and benefit from long term greening.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eHow it Works\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBioIRON\u003c\/strong\u003e can be incorporated into soil media before planting or used as a broadcast or top dressing. When applied to the soil the microbe and iron humate combination go to work. The microbes colonize and grow in the media and around the root system of plants. Once on the root's rhizosphere they form a synergetic relationship, feeding off of the plant's waste materials while secreting beneficial by-products. This combination of root colonization and secondary metabolite production allows the plant to generate a robust root system, larger top growth and overall stronger plant. In addition, certain by-products of the microorganisms (called siderophores) actually break down the iron contained in BiolRON and makes it readily available to the plant. This \"natural chelation\" slowly releases\u003cbr\u003ethe iron to the plant over an extended period of time. Because of the unique way the iron is released there is no fear of burning, even with iron sensitive plants.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFinally, the the humic acid in BioIRON is used as a food source by the microbes, enhancing their ability to propagate in soil. This in turn allows them to survive in bulk, bagged or baled soil media for over two years so there is no fear of BioIRON expiring in left over soil.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDirections For Use\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSoil Incorporation:\u003c\/strong\u003e Evenly blend BioIRON into growing media at a rate of 2.5-5 lbs per cubic yard.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBroadcast:\u003c\/strong\u003e For agricultural fields use 5-10 lbs per acre appleid in-furrow \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTop Dressing:\u003c\/strong\u003e For turf and athletic fields use 2.5 lbs per 1,000 sq ft\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eTechnical Information\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eActive Ingredients:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eBacillus subtilis, Bacillus amyloliquefaciens, Bcillus licheniformis, Streptomyces nigrescens\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eOther Igredients:\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eFerric sulfate, humic acid\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eGeneral Description:\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eMicrobial soil amendment with iron and humic acid\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003ePurpose\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003e* Complexed iron and makes it available to plant even in high pH soils.\u003cbr\u003e* Produces metabolites beneficial to plant growth, yield \u0026amp; root production\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eBenefits:\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003e* Green vibrant plants\u003cbr\u003e* Enhanced root systems\u003cbr\u003e* Vigorous top growth\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eTemperature Tolerance:\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003e0-110 F\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eLongevity:\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eBioIRON has a 2- year shelf life in the bag.
