Description

Troforte® Plant Tablets are more efficient, environmentally friendly and economical than high analysis chemical fertilisers. Slow Release Microbial Fertiliser Tablets - 21-1-11 + TE

For all plants and soils including aquatic soil for your pond. Slow release fertiliser pellet, perfect for water lilies and all water plants. Safe with fish, frogs and aquatic life. Also safe for your household pets: Troforte® M fertilisers contain natural rock minerals and have no adverse effect on pets should they accidentally ingest it. But it does not smell and therefore is not attractive to pets. However due to the incorporation of slow release fertilisers avoid placing it in exposed heaps on the surface. It’s river and reef safe too!

Troforte® All Purpose - Plant Tablets contain a full spectrum of slow release nutrients and is fortified with beneficial soil microbes coated onto silicate based mineral fertilisers.

Troforte® Plant Tablets are made with a special mineral base that includes up to 60 minerals and a carefully balanced mix of up to 24 types of beneficial soil microbes. These include bacteria, fungi, and algae that perform important functions in the soil, such as:

• Fixing nitrogen
• Building nutrients
• Producing natural plant growth hormones
• Breaking down organic matter into carbon
• Releasing antibiotics to help protect against harmful microbes like root rot and fungi
• Improving soil structure

Some of the helpful microbes included are: Azobacter, Azospirillum, Bacilli, Cellulose-degrading fungi, Myxobacteria, Phosphobacteria, Pseudomonas, Rhizobium, Streptomyces, Saccharomyces, Trichoderma, VAM, and Yarrowia.

Certain bacteria also help by breaking down minerals and releasing important nutrients like potassium, phosphorus, magnesium, calcium, and iron. Others produce plant growth hormones such as auxins, gibberellins, and cytokinins.

These beneficial microbes can carry out a wide range of biological activities within the soil such as Nitrogen-fixing, nutrient building, producing growth hormones, decomposing organic matter to organic carbon, protecting beneficial bacteria by releasing antibiotics that can assist in inhibiting disease producing microbes like root rot, fungi, and pythium, as well as conditioning soils by improving soil structure.

Some types of bacteria break down minerals to release nutrients like potassium, phosphorus, magnesium, calcium, and iron, making them easier for plants to use. Other bacteria produce natural plant growth hormones such as auxins, gibberellins, and cytokinins.

Since most nitrogen in soil doesn’t dissolve in water, this method provides a steady supply of carbon and nitrogen through the action of microbes. This also helps grow and maintain healthy populations of beneficial microbes in the soil.
