Treat Your Soil with a Unique all Natural Microbial Inoculant

Beneficial microbial inoculant that enhances soil biology
and promotes healthy plant growth !

A proprietary microbial system formulated to re-establish these beneficial microbial populations and provide the soil with the necessary components to promote healthy growth and reduce plant stress. Regular use of PGA has the ability to suppress pathogenic microorganisms. The beneficial microbial species found in PGA preemptively consume the food source for such pathogenic fungi as pythium, FUSARIUM, rhizactonia and phytopthora, keeping them in check through the process of natural selection. These products are ideal for "repairing" the soil in bioremediation projects.

PGA is specifically formulated for plants that require a bacterial dominated soil such as row crops, annuals, foliage plants and herbaceous perennials.
PGA is formulated for plants that require a fungal dominated soil such as deciduous trees, conifers and fruit trees.

PGA contains:

• 47 and 50 strains respectively of beneficial soil microorganisms

When used as directed you will increase yield while reducing your need for supplemental fertilizer and pesticide applications. These microbial systems provide the professional grower a natural way to improve their overall performance and grow to their full potential.

May be applied through most irrigation injection systems and by conventional spray applications. For added benefit, wait 48 hours before or after pesticide treatments.

APPLICATION RATES PRODUCTION FARMING (row crops, trees, shrubs, annuals and perennials) Apply 1-2 ounces per 1000 square feet / 2.75 - 5.5 lbs. per acre monthly Use full rate on sandy soils, preferably slit into bi-weekly applications Thoroughly dissolve product in a sufficient volume of water to achieve desired coverage Apply product early morning, evening or on an overcast day. Product is somewhat UV sensitive.

INCORPORATING INTO GROWING MEDIUM Thoroughly incorporate ¼ - ½ lb. of product per cubic yard of growing medium. Product should be blended into medium in powder form.
