DIEHARD™ Starter Mix products are available with endomycorrhizae & ecto, endo alone, or ecto alone, to be used as a propagation amendment treatment with live beneficial mycorrhizal fungi to inoculate the roots of plants being propagated. It contains highly selected strains of low host specificity ecto and endomycorrhizae fungi (or each separately) that will quickly colonize the roots of plants to provide the best possible conditions for the roots to become associated with mycorrhiza. The mycorrhizal inoculants are combined with humic acids, Trichoderma, biostimulants, beneficial bacteria, soluble sea kelp, and yucca plant extracts, to promote rapid root development. The soluble components of this formulation is managed with Horta-Sorb® SM which also protects the mix from drying out.
