Explogrow

ExploGrow™ is a bio-fertilizer containing 17 micro-organisms. When applied to the plant, seed or soil, they colonise the interior of the plant and the region of soil that is directly influenced by root secretions and associated soil microorganisms (rhizosphere). Some bacteria are nitrogen-fixing (even atmospheric nitrogen), others are phosphate solubilising. Their activity promotes growth by increasing the supply and/or availability of primary nutrients to the plant. Their specific functions and effects on the soil and plant health functions explain how some of the microbes may enhance the plant's resistance to certain diseases. Just like the human gut, soil, roots and leaves are teaming with bacteria and fungi. With ExploGrow you can introduce some of the most important of these microbes and let them assist you to grow bigger, healthier plants, naturally!


Why use Explogrow?

  • Increases leaves, larger diameter stems, more diffused roots 

  • Increases overall growth 

  • Pest and disease control

  • Breaks down harmful substances

How to use Explogrow?

  • Seed soaking: Soaking in water increases the rate and success of germination. Soak seeds in 1-2ml ExploGrow™ for 20-30 min max.

  • Soil: Mix 4-8ml of ExploGrow™ bio-fertilizer with 1 liter of water. Apply mixture to each pot plant (10 liter grow bag size) every month, from seedling to start of flowering.

  • Hydroponics: Use 2-3 ml of ExploGrow™ bio-fertilizer per litre of water or nutrient solution each week throughout growing

  • Foliar feed: ExploGrow™ can be used as a bio-fertilizer as a foliar feed up until the start flowering. Mix 2-3 ml ExploGrow™ bio-fertilizer per litre of water and thoroughly spray plant. 

  • Do not apply ExploGrow™ bio-fertilizer during the flowering

  • Note: ExploGrow™ improves nutrient uptake, so maxing/overdosing nutrients could have a negative influence on the plant’s growth. We always recommend reducing fertilizers when using ExploGrow™ by 25%
