DIEHARD™ Root Dip
is formulated as a bare root mycorrhizal inoculant gel 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 endomycorrhizal fungi and
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, and 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 bare root transplants.
