DIEHARD™ Ecto Root Dip is formulated as a bare root treatment with live beneficial mycorrhizal fungi to inoculate the roots of bare root plants before planting.  It contains highly selected species of low host specificity ectomycorrhizal fungi that will quickly colonize the roots of bare root plants to provide the best possible conditions for the roots to become as effective during and after planting.  The mycorrhizal inoculants are combined with humic acids, biostimulants, beneficial bacteria, soluble sea kelp, yucca plant extracts, to promote rapid root development.  The mycorrhizal inoculant is managed with Horta-Sorb® SM which also protects the roots from drying out.  The results are better survival and growth rates and less watering for all transplants.

Use of Product

Mix contents of bag with water to form a mixture the consistency of thick gravy.  Let stand for 15-20 minutes.  Dip or spray roots and plant, or package seedlings for shipment or storage.  Adjust thickness of mixture to insure that the gel adheres to the roots when dipping.  (The 3 oz. bag will treat 2,000 seedlings.  If your dip mixture gets too hard add water.  If you add too much water add some Horta-Sorb SM to get the gel again.)

An added benefit when using this product is that when roots are dipped into the gel they become heavy and tend to drop nicely into our container mixes.  Before we were always trying to arrange the roots so that they dropped down into the hole without wrapping.  Now we do not spend time even thinking about this as all of the roots are nicely arranged to go immediately into a soil mix without further manipulation.  The labor savings here can be significant.

Testimonial

"Last year all of my neighbors that grow Xmas trees lost everything because of the drought we had here in the valley.  I used DIEHARD™ Ecto Root Dip on my trees and didn't loose a single tree.  Even more astonishing was that I planted two year old seedlings which are traditionally harder to get started.  The DIEHARD™ Ecto Root Dip really saved the day for us."   Mr. John Borst, Schoharie, NY.

"We tried your product next to a competitive product from Pennsylvania and saw big differences.  In 17 years we've never grown a better tree.  We are very pleased with DIEHARD™ Ecto Root Dip and plan to use it from here on."  Mr. Greg Phillips, Bald Mountain Tree Farm, Todd, NC.
