Roots Organics Bio Force, 6 lbs

Beneficial Bacteria & Trichoderma Root Inoculant, 6lb

Root-zone microbial populations don't establish on their own in a fresh bag of soil or a sterile hydroponic reservoir, and a plant's own root exudates alone don't always recruit enough beneficial organisms to matter. Roots Organics Bio Force is a microbial inoculant that introduces an eight-strain blend of beneficial bacteria and Trichoderma fungi directly to the root system and surrounding rhizosphere.

This 6lb size suits growers treating a larger number of containers or repeating applications across multiple growing seasons.

Key Features & Benefits

• Eight-strain bacterial & fungal blend — Bacillus and Pseudomonas species plus Trichoderma harzianum.
• Phosphorus-solubilizing strains — help make existing soil phosphorus more available.
• Abiotic stress support — helps container-grown plants tolerate stress conditions.
• Compatible with hand watering & automated systems — flexible across irrigation methods.

Who Should Use This

Container growers who want to establish a beneficial bacterial and fungal population in the root zone, rather than rely on whatever organisms are already present in a bag of soil, will find Bio Force suited to that role.

Frequently Asked Questions

What organisms are in Bio Force?

It contains an eight-strain blend, including several Bacillus species (amyloliquefaciens, licheniformis, megaterium, pumilus, simplex, and subtilis) along with Pseudomonas fluorescens and Trichoderma harzianum. Together they establish a beneficial population in the root zone and surrounding rhizosphere.

How do I apply it?

Bio Force can be applied by hand watering or through an automated irrigation system. It's formulated to be compatible with either method.

How much do I use for container gardening?

For container gardening, use 1/2 to 1 teaspoon (2.5-5mL) per gallon of water. Growers should follow the product label for application rates outside of standard container use.

How often should I apply it?

Apply at the start of the growing season, then repeat every 4 weeks. That interval helps maintain the beneficial population through the growing cycle rather than a single one-time treatment.

Will it work with an automated watering system?

Yes, Bio Force is compatible with both hand watering and automated irrigation systems. It doesn't require a separate application method beyond a grower's existing watering routine.
