DIEHARD™
Root Reviver is formulated as a preparation to inoculate the
roots of tree and shrubs with live beneficial mycorrhizal fungi
when planting. It
contains highly selected endo and ectomycorrhizal fungi that
will quickly colonize the roots of trees and shrubs to provide
the best possible condition for the roots to grow and extract
from the root zone water
and nutrients. The fungi is combined with humic acids, biostimulants,
beneficial bacteria, soluble sea kelp, yucca plant extracts,
amino acids, and vitamins to promote rapid root development.
To reduce transplant stress and watering maintenance,
and to slow release all soluble components of the formulation,
Horta-Sorb® water management gel is added to complete the package.
