AZOS Beneficial Bacteria

Nitrogen-Fixing Beneficial Bacteria

AZOS® is a natural growth-promoting product containing nitrogen-fixing bacteria. It is specifically designed to enhance the growth of plants by converting atmospheric nitrogen (N2) into a usable form (NH3 ammoniacal nitrogen) that plants can easily absorb.

Key Benefits

• Beneficial Bacteria: Supports healthy microbial activity in the soil.
• Natural Growth Promoter: Enhances root and vegetative growth.
• Fixes Atmospheric Nitrogen: Converts nitrogen into a form readily available to plants.
• Shorter Veg Times: Promotes faster growth cycles for cuttings and transplants.
• Versatile Use: Suitable for vegetables, fruits, herbs, and flowers.

Importance of Nitrogen

Nitrogen is a crucial nutrient for plants, required in larger quantities than any other nutrient. It plays a vital role in:

• Chlorophyll Production: Keeps plants green and efficient.
• Amino Acids Formation: Essential for protein synthesis and overall plant health.
• Soil Enrichment: Addresses common nitrogen deficiencies in soil.

How AZOS® Works

• Nitrogen from the Air: AZOS® belongs to a group of bacteria called “Diazotrophs,” which specialize in supplying nitrogen to plants from various sources, including atmospheric nitrogen.
• Efficient Conversion: Originally isolated from the Amazon Basin, AZOS® efficiently converts atmospheric nitrogen into plant-available forms, supporting robust growth in challenging environmental conditions.

Application Instructions

Root Cuttings

1. Add 4 tbsp of AZOS® per 1 gallon (3.8 liters) of water.
2. Soak grow plugs or Rockwool cubes for 10 minutes.
3. In a small container, mix 1 part AZOS® with 2 parts water.
4. Dip the tips of new cuttings in the solution for 15 seconds and place them in plugs.
   • Best results: pH water to 6.0 before mixing with AZOS®.

Propagation Machines (e.g., EZ Clone, Turbo Cloner)

1. Adjust water pH to 6.0.
2. Add 1 tbsp of AZOS® per 1 gallon of water.

Transplanting

1. Add AZOS® to the planting hole around the roots or dust the entire root ball before setting the plant.
   • Recommended amounts:
     • 1 – 3 gal container: 1 tbsp
     • 5 – 7 gal container: 2 tbsp
     • 10 – 20 gal container: 3 tbsp
     • 25 – 50 gal container: 4 tbsp
     • 100 gal container: 1/2 cup

In-Ground and Raised Bed Applications

• Use 1 tbsp per plant hole.

Watering

1. Mix AZOS® with water and apply weekly during the vegetative/growth phase.
   • Recommended amounts for various reservoir sizes:
     • 5 gal: 2 tbsp
     • 25 gal: 3 – 4 tbsp
     • 50 gal: 6 – 8 tbsp
     • 100 gal: 3/4 – 1 cup

For Extreme Results

• Apply every two weeks and after heavy watering. Mix AZOS® with warm water and combine with MYKOS during transplanting.
• Add AZOS® to XTREME TEA brews at a rate of 2 tbsp per gallon and apply weekly.
