Organica incorporates a diverse array of beneficial microorganisms into Bio – Matrix allowing them to facilitate the natural processes inherent to healthy plant growth. The establishment of beneficial populations in the rhizosphere (soil surrounding root hairs) is the key to creating the ideal soil environment for sustained plant growth. The microbial system develops a symbiotic relationship with the root system of plants, root exudates provide the microorganisms with a readily available source of life sustaining carbon and in return they protect and nourish the roots. This interplay is an integral part of microbial establishment and it allows plants to grow and develop to their full genetic potential.
The microbial species contained in Bio – Matrix will enhance nutrient absorption, improve nutrient availability, reduce the incidence of leaching, improve soil structure and provide plants with increased resistance to environmental extremes.
The humic acid (humates) portion of the Bio – Matrix system provides plants with essential organic metabolites in addition to enhancing nutrient uptake and increasing cation – exchange capacity. Humic acid also serves to promote microbial growth and proliferation further enhancing the microbial system.
Bio – Matrix contains kelp, which has been manufactured utilizing a patented “cell burst process” to ensure maximum retention of the delicate bio-stimulant compounds found in freshly harvested Ecklonia maxima. Supplemental applications of kelp increase root growth, increase fruiting and flowering, promote plant establishment and provides increased resistance to environmental extremes such as heat, drought, cold and excessive foot traffic. Kelp also drastically increases mineral uptake and facilitates the translocation of water and solutes within plant tissues.

DIRECTIONS FOR HOSE END
Shake product thoroughly prior to each use. Attach hose end applicator to garden hose, make sure sprayer is in the off position, then turn on water. Position yourself to spray, bend safety tab to the right, turn dial clockwise to the “on position”, sprayer will begin dispensing product. Apply product in a gentle, sweeping manner making sure to overlap spray area. Apply entire contents of bottle to 2,000 sq ft of turf / bed area. Apply to BOTH soil and foliage. Apply every 4 weeks throughout the growing season for optimal results.

APPLICATION & MIXING SPECIFICS
Shake product thoroughly prior to each use. Do not pre-mix more product than you will utilize in a 48 hour period. For optimum results use a spray mixture that has a pH of 5 – 9. Utilize a sufficient volume of water to achieve desired coverage we recommend a minimum of 2 gallons per 1000 sq ft / 8 liters per 100 sq. meters. Use higher application rates on sandy soil and / or when plants are exposed to environmental extremes. Application rates and timing may be adjusted based on the specific nutritional requirements of the plant. Bio – Matrix may be tank mixed with fertilizers, bio-stimulants, micro-nutrient packages and microbial foods. When incorporating the product into a rotation that includes insecticides, herbicides and fungicides we recommend you apply Bio – Matrix 48 hours after application of pesticide to reestablish beneficial microbial populations. Product may be applied to both soil and foliage. Spray plant thoroughly until point of runoff when applying to foliage.
STORAGE & HANDLING
Store product in original container with cap tightly secured. Store in a cool area (40O – 110O F.) out of direct sunlight. Moderately irritating to eyes avoid contact. If contact occurs flush eyes with cool water for 15 minutes and consult physician if irritation persists. Do not ingest. If swallowed drink copious amounts of water and contact physician. Wash your hands thoroughly after handling product. Please refer to MSDS Sheet for more detailed information.
