Down to Earth 25# Bio Live 5-4-2 with Myco OMRI (40/PL)

Key Features and Benefits

Balanced Nutrient Composition: Bio-Live 5-4-2 offers a balanced nutrient ratio of 5% Nitrogen (N), 4% Phosphorus (P), and 2% Potassium (K), providing essential macronutrients that support overall plant health. This balanced formula ensures that plants receive the nutrients they need during all stages of growth, promoting strong roots, vibrant foliage, and abundant blooms.

Infused with Mycorrhizal Fungi and Beneficial Bacteria: One of Bio-Live's standout features is its infusion of mycorrhizal fungi and beneficial bacteria. These microorganisms form symbiotic relationships with plant roots, greatly improving nutrient uptake, water absorption, and overall plant vigor. 

Mycorrhizal fungi, in particular, help extend the root system, allowing plants to access nutrients from a larger volume of soil. At the same time, beneficial bacteria promote soil health by breaking down organic matter and making nutrients more available to plants.

Diverse Organic Ingredients: Bio-Live is formulated with a rich blend of organic ingredients, each selected for its specific benefits to soil and plant health. The ingredients include:

• Fish Bone Meal: A source of phosphorus and calcium, promoting robust root development and flowering.
• Fish Meal: Provides nitrogen for leafy growth and overall plant vigor.
• Alfalfa Meal: Improves soil structure and provides a slow-release source of nutrients.
• Crab Meal: Adds essential micronutrients and chitin, which helps suppress soil pathogens.
• Shrimp Meal: Rich in nitrogen and trace elements, supporting plant growth.
• Langbeinite supplies potassium and magnesium, essential for photosynthesis and enzyme activation.
• Humates: Improve soil structure, water retention, and nutrient availability.
• Kelp Meal: Provides a natural source of trace minerals and growth-promoting hormones.

Encourages Rapid Colonization: The beneficial microbes in Bio-Live encourage rapid colonization of both soil and soilless growing mediums. This rapid colonization helps plants establish themselves more quickly, improving vigor and resilience against environmental stresses.

Versatile Use: Bio-Live is versatile and can be used with various plants, including vegetables, fruits, herbs, flowers, and shrubs. It can be combined with other Down to Earth fertilizers to create a customized nutrient regimen tailored to your plants' specific needs.

OMRI Listed for Organic Use: Bio-Live is listed, meaning it is approved for certified organic production. This ensures that the product meets the highest organic gardening and farming standards, making it a reliable choice for those committed to sustainable and environmentally friendly practices.

Application Instructions

1. Pre-Planting Application: Mix 2.5 to 5 pounds of Bio-Live per 100 square feet into the top 3 inches of soil before planting. This will help prepare the soil by boosting its microbial activity and nutrient content.

2. Established Plants: For established plants, side-dress by applying 1/2 to 1 cup of Bio-Live around the drip line of each plant. Lightly mix it into the soil and water thoroughly.

3. Containers and Raised Beds: Mix 1 to 2 tablespoons per gallon of soil for container gardens and raised beds or 1/2 to 1 pound per cubic foot of soil. Incorporate into the soil before planting or apply as a top-dress throughout the growing season.

4. Trees and Shrubs: Mix 1 to 2 pounds of Bio-Live per inch of trunk diameter into the soil around the planting hole for new trees and shrubs. Apply 1/2 to 1 pound per inch of trunk diameter for established trees around the drip line.
