How to Do It Series 2 - Episode 4 - Seedling Treatment
Hi Everyone,
In Episode Four of the “How to Do It” Series Two, we will be discovering the power of seedling treatment.
On my farms, we would never plant trays of vegetable seedlings or bagged tree seedlings without applying minerals, microbes, and natural biostimulants. This is the perfect opportunity to set the plant up for a healthy, vigorous, disease-free life.
Through experience, we have found that the best mineral-based biostimulant blend for this purpose is the NTS product Root and Shoot. This liquid features a broad spectrum of major and minor minerals supported and enhanced with humates, kelp, amino acids, vitamins, and plant growth promotants. This tool delivers the mineral nutrition component of a successful seedling treatment.
The microbial component involves a combination of Platform and Bio-N. This duo involves the super productive synergy between Mycorrhizal fungi and Azotobacter. There are several components to this synergy, but the most important involves AMF supplying soluble phosphate to create ATP, which is the battery that drives the enzymatic harvesting of nitrogen from the atmosphere into the soil. The mycorrhizal fungi are rewarded with some of that harvested nitrogen, and that helps sponsor the protein required to create that vast network of hyphae.
Platform, also contains the versatile problem solver, Trichoderma along with a blend of other potent microorganisms including bacillus.
I hope this short video will inspire you to give your seedlings the best possible start and set them up for a productive life.
Happy Nutrition Farming!
Warm regards,
