Again,
Quick fix brother, I have seen it work for these same problems 20 times over. Get us your address and we will have a package on its way to treat your plants. Not asking for anything, if you notice a significant change in your plants within 48 hours…maybe shout us out?
Here is a Repost…
Features/benefits of our microbial formulation
-
Biological Nitrogen fixation- Ninety five to ninety nine percent of nitrogen in the soil is in an organic form that is not available for uptake by plants. And although 78% of the earth’s atmosphere is nitrogen, it also is mostly unavailable for plant use. However, Mother Nature has a solution… microbes. Microbes play an important part in the nitrogen cycle. URB’s microbial formulation unlocks bound soil nitrogen and absorbs nitrogen from the air for optimum plant growth and development.
-
Phosphate Solubilization- Often, phosphate is present in a bound form unavailable to plants. URB’s microbial formulation solubilizes the bound phosphate and makes it available to the plant in a useable form. Phosphate is involved in photosynthesis, respiration, energy storage and transfer, cell division, and enlargement. Phosphate:
• Promotes early root formation and growth
• Improves quality (BRIX value) of Cannabis
• Vital to seed formation
• Helps plants survive harsh conditions
• Increases water-use efficiency
-
Mobilization and Mineralization of Available Plant Nutrients - It is not enough that a soil contains an element. What matters is its availability to plants. Mobilizing and mineralizing soil nutrients, such as bound Phosphate, Magnesium, and Calcium into a form that is available for plant uptake is a vital role of the microorganisms contained in our products
• Other Nitrogen fixing bacteria that live in the soil continue the conversion into
ammonium (NH4+, a form plants can use)
• Nitrifying bacteria convert ammonium into NO2 then to NO3, NO3 is also a form that plants can uptake
• Various decomposers (including bacteria and fungi) breakdown organic forms of nitrogen into ammonium, where then the nitrifying bacteria can continue that conversion into NO3
-
Phytohormone Production- Phytohormones are plant growth regulators and makes the appropriate nutrients available during different growth stages. For example, at the time of flowering a plant will have increased nitrogen needs. URB’s formulation of microbes are vital in providing the plant with the necessary means of absorbing the appropriate amounts of nutrients it needs at the stage it needs them.
This gives crops treated with our products the opportunity to reach optimum growth and yield.
-
Act as Biological Control Agents-The URB formulation inhibits plant pathogens and enhances the plant’s natural defense mechanisms. This bio-control function is comprised predominately of Trichoderma strains. They generally grow on the root surface and are effective against root disease in particular, but can also be effective against foliar diseases. URB also increases the plant’s resistance against pests. Pests recognize the higher sugar content of URB treated plants and forages and because most pests lack a liver and cannot digest high concentrations of amino acids, this makes the plants an unattractive nutrient source
Additionally, our products have a saprophytic competence in the soil. Saprophytic competency of microbes in the formulation is one of the major challenges to the practical utilization of improved commercial inoculants’ competitiveness and persistence in the soil against less efficient native strains. Test results show that URB products have a highly competent on in soil. It captures additional water and available nutrients from naturally occurring organic matter in the soil for the plant’s use. This enables plants to better sustain adverse environmental conditions such as variations in soil pH and moisture issues.
URB also promotes a healthy soil pH. Soil pH has strong effects on the availability of most nutrients. This is because pH affects both the chemical forms and solubility of nutrient elements. The ideal soil pH for many crops is slightly acid, between about 5.8 and 7.0, because in that range there is well balanced availability for all nutrients. This pH range also promotes an active and diverse soil microbial population and is a healthy range for earthworms and other soil organisms. It has been shown that acid tolerant bacterial strains can more readily generate a pH gradient when grown in acid conditions and can subsequently maintain a more constant internal pH.
URB’s microbial formulation is suspended in a 12% humic acid carrier, stabilized at a balance pH of 7.0, which allows it to effectively work in varied climates and soil conditions. These humates act as a carbon food source for the microbial formulation, are high in organic matter and contain micronutrients, such as calcium, magnesium, zinc and manganese. Our products have been extensively tested in university greenhouses, field trials, replicated crop trials and specialized testing facilities. We do not know of a single product currently on the market that has a consortium of microbes with verified functional properties that give marked growth enhancement of such a truly broad spectrum of crops. The sustainability of our products creates a healthy, nutrient rich plant. For organic production, OMRI listing is coming soon. URB can increase crop yields, improve stress and drought resistance, reduce fertilizer dependence, and increase the percentages of desirable cannabinoids of your crop.
“Pesticide” is a general term which can further segmented into insecticides, fungicides and herbicides. URB Sciences estimates the reduction in insecticides to be approximately 90%. Generally speaking, insects prey on weak plants and URB grown plants are much stronger than conventionally grown plants as evidenced by higher brix, chlorophyll and protein levels.
In addition to healthier plants having fewer disease/insect issues, there are two other modes of action URB products have against insects – higher brix levels and quorum sensing. The higher brix levels (natural sugars) we have documented in a number of crops are the plants’ natural protection system. Insects don’t have livers to digest sugars so the sugars stay in the insects’ stomachs, ferments and kills them. Low brix levels are signs of less-than-healthy plants so having insects kill the less-than-healthy plants is Mother Nature’s way of promoting the survival of the fittest.
As an aside, insects are attracted to free nitrogen ions. Most fertilizers consist of, or break down into, free nitrogen ions.
Microbes produce an electromagnetic frequency; the more microbes, the stronger the signal, known as “quorum sensing.” In layman’s terms, this signal basically tells insects to stay away. Obviously, URB increases the number of microbes and hence, the strength of the electromagnetic signal.
URB estimates a 50% reduction in fungicides due to the natural bio-pesticides included in the formulation.
Getting more technical, the bio-pesticide (bio-control) function is comprised predominately by Trichoderma strains. Strains of Trichoderma are included in URB as bio-pesticide agents against fungal diseases of plants, especially powdery mildew. The various direct inhibition mechanisms against plant pathogens include antibiosis, mycoparasitism, inducing host-plant resistance to stress through enhanced root and plant development, solubilization and sequestration of inorganic nutrients, inactivation of the pathogen’s enzymes, and competition for nutrients or space. The bio-pesticides generally grow in their natural habitat on the root surface, and so affect root disease in particular, but can also be effective against foliar diseases. This is one reason why we recommend foliar application in veg, we have a high quality fulvic acid with great trans-membrane abilities, allowing these bio pesticides to be in full force on the leaves of Cannabis as well as the rhizosphere. Once the bio-pesticides come into contact with roots, they colonize the root surface or cortex, depending on the strain. The best strains will colonize root surfaces even when roots grow three feet below the soil surface. In addition to colonizing roots, Trichoderma attack, parasitize and otherwise gain nutrition from other fungi. Since Trichoderma grow and proliferate best when there are abundant healthy roots, they have evolved numerous mechanisms for both attack of other fungi, and for enhancing plant and root growth.
Different strains of Trichoderma control every pathogenic fungus for which control has been sought. However, most Trichoderma strains are more efficient for control of some pathogens than others. The recent discovery in several labs that some strains induce plants to “turn on” their native defense mechanisms offers the likelihood that these strains also will control pathogens other than fungi.
Because bio-pesticides contain multiple modes of action, they are well suited for rotation in pest management programs. For example, a bio-pesticide may create holes in the gut of the pest (fermented sugars), whereas conventional pesticides are often neurotoxins.
