POPUL8 is an Advanced Soil Biological Formula developed and manufactured by Neutrog Australia.
POPUL8 is designed to populate and occupy the biological space in the soil and on plant roots which may otherwise be an available space for plant pathogens to inhabit… Hence its name POPUL8.
POPUL8 contains a diverse base microbiome of some 200+ naturally occurring bacteria and fungi, plus a further 42 specifically selected bacteria and fungi have been isolated, identified and added for their individual and joint symbiotic purpose and beneficial characteristics.
The high number and wide diversity of specific purpose of microbes in POPUL8 have been chosen to maximize the range of functions POPUL8 can perform, including:
- Promote Nutrient Cycling from its microbiome of 200+ diverse bacteria and fungi known for their ability to break down organic compounds.
- Liberate Nutrients such as phosphorus, potassium and calcium from the inclusion of specific individual microbes.
- Fix Nitrogen from the inclusion of specific individual microbes that can fix up to 40kg of nitrogen, per hectare, per year.
- Produce Plant Growth Hormones such as auxins and gibberellins from the inclusion of specific individual microbes.
- Protection & Resilience against disease by filling the biological space that could otherwise be occupied by pathogens.
- Bio-Stimulation through the inclusion of proteins, vitamins, amino acids, micro-nutrients, cellulose and fulvic and humic acids extracted from kelp, fish and leonardite.
POPUL8 is suitable for ALL plants and soil types.
