Xtreme Gardening MYKOS Root Paks - Mycorrhizal Fungi - 50 Count

Root-Zone Mycorrhizal Paks for Containers and Net Pots - 50 Paks

Plants in containers and net pots depend on a limited root mass to find nutrients and water. MYKOS Root Paks put an arbuscular mycorrhizal fungus, Rhizophagus intraradices, right where the roots are, so the fungus can form a symbiotic partnership with them and extend their reach. The paks are designed for hydroponic growers and are rated at 300 propagules per gram.

This unit holds 50 paks, enough for a regular indoor grower to treat many containers or net pots through vegetative growth and flowering. Smaller 3-6 in. containers take 1-2 paks each, so one unit covers a sizable room.
