Bacteria and fungi in the soil food web / Soil-Food-Web

MICROBIOM+
The ultimate blend of beneficial bacteria and fungi. We have developed and extensively tested these products to give your Living Soil the perfect start and bring all the essential microorganisms and fungi into the soil from the beginning, providing the plant with all the necessary nutrients and establishing symbiotic processes. This mixture is the basis for a functioning soil food web that delivers the perfect performance to achieve healthy, resistant and vigorously growing plants.

MICROBIOM+ contains the following microbes which fulfill different functions in the rhizosphere such as Bacillus subtilis which has both a direct and an indirect biological control mechanism, suppressing diseases caused by pathogens. The direct mechanism involves the synthesis of many secondary metabolites, hormones, cell wall degrading enzymes and antioxidants that help the plant to defend itself against pathogens. The indirect mechanism involves the stimulation of plant growth and the induction of acquired systemic resistance.

Bacillus subtilis can also solubilize soil P, improve nitrogen fixation and chelate iron, which promote growth and suppress the development of pathogens. Bacillus subtilis improves the plant’s stress tolerance by inducing the expression of stress response genes, phytohormones and stress-related metabolites. A good soil food web needs the right microorganisms that can function in symbiosis to create a sustainable system.

Rhizobiom

RHIZOBIOM contains the following microbes and mycorrhiza such as Glomus Intraradices which is a strong symbiotic partner of C.Sativa. The mycorrhizal hyphae present in the soil can account for a quarter of the total biomass in the soil. Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi are a group of endomycorrhizae that fulfill an important ecosystem function. Plants associated with mycorrhizae grow faster, healthier and more productive than non-associated plants.
Mycorrhiza, like bacteria, are dependent on carbon as a food source, especially in the form of sugar, which is supplied by the plant in the form of root exudates. In return, the mycorrhiza provide the plant with nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium and micronutrients as and when the plant needs them.

– Azotobacter chroococcum
– Azospirillum brasilense 
– Bacillus megaterium
– Bacillus amyloliquefaciens

– Bacillus pumilus
– Bacillus simplex
– Pseudomonas fluorescens
– Glomus intraradices

The bacteria and fungi contained metabolize all the necessary nutrients so that the plant lacks nothing, protect against diseases and pathogens and form lasting symbiotic relationships.

The extremely high CFUs / colony-forming units of microbes guarantee a stable colonization of the soil and the continued reproduction of these microorganisms. The remaining diversity of bacteria and microorganisms is provided by nature and complements your Living Soil to form a perfectly functioning organism. MICROBIOM+ and RHIZOBIOM can also be used as a “first aid” measure for dried Living Soil in order to revitalize the soil or simply to boost it in a natural way. Cuttings or young plants also benefit from this and are less susceptible to diseases or nutrient deficiencies and take root more quickly.
Both products are certified for organic cultivation.

RE-STORE
Another product from our company, which we have specially developed to accelerate the utilization of organic matter after a successful harvest, to refresh bacteria and fungi and thus guarantee an optimal restart and the colonization of all necessary microorganisms in a short time. It can also be used to accelerate the processes in compost when the soil has dried out or after a long break in the Living Soil. This product should be used in the absence of living plants. RE-STORE is of course certified for organic cultivation.
