Mycorrhiza

Trees rely on mycorrhiza to help deliver micronutrients to their root systems. Mycorrhiza occur naturally, but you can also inoculate your trees during repotting by adding commercial grown fungi.

One source, recommended by Rodney, is Bio-Organics (http://www.bio-organics.com/). They offer 1.5 lbs (trial) and 3 pound containers with several versions of the product. I suspect the micronized might be a better product for bonsai. The company also offers a new product that include micronutrients.

Even the trial size is quite a bit of material. This might be a good product for a group buy.

  1. Hey, are we going to get some of those for the group? I would definitely want Mycorrhiza and fertilizer. Is anyone interested in splitting some?

  2. I would support it. Can you send an email and poll the group? The 3 lbs container will run about $100.
