Khemical Release Microbial Root Inoculant (Soil Applications)

Khemical Release Microbial Root Inoculant (Soil Applications) contains a proprietary blend of beneficial plant growth-promoting rhizobacteri. Release will colonize the root zone to ensure better plant uptake and overall health.  Release greatly improves the ability of mycorrhizae to colonize plant roots. This is because mycorrhizae need nutrients in order to colonize and extend the plant root system and Release microbes ensure sufficient nutrients are available for this to occur.

Release can help prevent transplant shock and can help bring damaged plants back to a healthy state by ensuring plants receive sufficient nutrients to heal. Release microbes will break down the nitrogen salt into a form the plant can use by separating the nitrogen from the salt residue, thus preventing root burn.

Release can be directly injected into irrigation systems, sprinklers, sprayers or any other system you may use and can also be applied using a tank or reservoir system. Release can be applied as a foliar spray. To maximize nutrient availability for your plants, we recommend applying Release as close to the plant roots as possible by using drip irrigation and/or applying it to the base of the plant.

Indoor Plants: For best results, we recommend applying Release every two weeks throughout the growing season at a rate of 1 – 4 mL per gallon of water used.

Outdoor Plants: For best results, we recommend applying Release either when you begin fertilization or as early as possible during your plant’s growth cycle. However, Release will still benefit plants when applied later (see next question). We recommend using Release at a dosage of 1 liter per acre, with 2 separate applications of ½ liter each and the second application occurring 2 – 3 weeks after the first application.

Activation is the process where the microbes in Release are “woken up” from their dormant state by diluting the concentrated Release product in non-chlorinated water. For optimal results, allow mixture to rest for 30 minutes up to 4 hours before applying. If necessary, activated Release mixture can be applied up to 3 days after mixing. Chlorinated water will kill the microbes.

Release has been used successfully with a wide variety of plant types including Herbaceous such as lettuce, strawberries, broccoli, tomatoes, peppers and many others; Trees such as avocado, fruit and nut trees; Vines such as melons, grapevines and sweet potatoes; Shrubs such as roses. For annual plants, we recommend applying Release when planting occurs or when fertilization begins. For perennial plants we recommend applying Release when fertilization begins after the plant comes out of dormancy and also applying Release post-harvest if more fertilizer is added at that time.

Note: Release contains a mixture of beneficial microbes. Sometimes these microbes can form clumps that will float in water. These clumps are a normal part of the product.  Release should be stored at room temperature out of direct sunlight between 40˚-90˚F (4˚-32˚C).
