Soil Amendments
Common Problems
Pesticides, insecticides, herbicides and other chemicals can greatly diminish a soil's natural population of beneficial microbes. This reduces the soil's ability to support turf, crops and other vegetation.
Solution
EmTec Biological Soil Amendments are scientifically formulated to restore soil productivity and promote plant growth by restoring the soil's natural microbial population. Their use increases nutrient availability, enhances root mass development and promotes vigorous plant growth.
Beneficial bacteria and fungi are used around the world on hundreds of crops, both organic and conventional. This technology is highly effective. Healthy soil requires a soil probiotic. EmTec-GP is an all-natural probiotic. EmTec-GP is a blend of beneficial bacillus bacteria, paenibacillus bacteria, and trichoderma fungi that replicate the natural soil organisms found in the worlds healthiest, most productive soils. These organisms increase the root mass of the plant, increasing crop yield.
The beneficial bacteria and beneficial fungi in EmTec-GP is an easy to use effervescent tablet containing enough bacteria and fungi spores (seeds) to treat your entire lawn and garden, up to 1/4 acre (1/10 hectare). will help grow bigger and healthier plants. Additionally, the paenibacillus converts atmospheric nitrogen into a form usable by the plant - this reduces the need for urea fertilizer by 15% - 30% and stabilizes soil nitrogen levels.
Applications
- Food Crops
- Turf
- Trees
- Flowers
- Plants
Benefits of EmTec Biological Soil Amendments
- Create more fertile soil by restoring natural microbial populations
- Promote vigorous plant growth, which leads to a significant increase in crop yield
- Maximize the benefits of your current fertilizer program by making nutrients more readily available
- Provide beneficial microbes
- Improve soil productivity
- Promote plant growth
- Can increase production up to 20%
- Produces pant hormones - helps plants grow bigger
- Increases root mass - larger roots means stronger plants
- Reverses root oxidation - like a face lift for the old roots
- Replaces beneficial organisms killed by chemicals, heat, drought, fire, flood, erosion, cold and frost
- Restores biota balance of beneficial bacteria and fungi
- Prevents biota Imbalance - that can cause crop failure
- Degrades organic material - makes nutrients available to plant
- Processes nutrients - make nutrients more soluble & mobile
- Increases moisture in soil around roots, reduces stress from drought
