How does HYGROBENTM Beneficial Microbes work?
Bacillus is a rod shaped bacteria that is mostly aerobic (love oxygen), naturally found in soil, water, and air and has an optimal growth temperature of 25-30°C. The Bacillus species in HYGROBEN™ are known to enhance plant growth and yield by colonizing the roots and increasing the nutrient availability to plants through nitrogen fixation, phosphate solubilization, and siderophore production.
Through third-party laboratory testing, HYGROBEN™ used along with HYGROZYME®, has been proven to provide the following benefits:
- Increase flower yield up to 30%
- Increase total cannabinoids up to 20%
- Increase total terpene profile up to 20%
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
- How is HYGROBEN™ different from other products with beneficial microbes?
HYGROBEN™ is composed of 5 different bacillus species that are physiologically compatible with each other. The CFU population of each species is higher in HYGROBEN than in any other product—the higher the population, the greater the microorganisms’ activity, and less product need once a week.
- What is the usage rate for HYGROBEN™ and how often should I use it?
1-2 mL per L of water (3.8-7.6 mL/Gallon) per week. Use as a drench/drip application from cuttings/seedling stage to 2 weeks before harvest.
- Is HYGROBEN™ is compatible with all nutrient and supplement lines?
HYGROBEN™ is compatible with most nutrient and supplement programs. HYGROBEN is not soluble in water and will be held in suspension if not mixed constantly.
- Can I use HYGROBEN™ with any grow media?
Yes. You can use HYGROBEN in all soil and soilless media.
- What is the optimal pH for HYGROBEN™?
A neutral solution with a pH range of 5.5 to 7.
- Can I use H202 with HYGROBEN™?
Yes, HYGROBEN can be safely and effectively use with hydrogen peroxide at a dose of no more than 2 mL/gallon.
- Can I use Enzyme products with HYGROBEN™ ?
Yes. For optimal results, use HYGROZYME. By turning dead root matter into simple sugars, HYGROZYME will support HYGROBEN’s beneficials growth (microbes consume simple sugars as a carbon source for their growth!).
- Can I use Mycorrhizal with HYGROBEN™?
Yes. Adding HYGROBEN with mycorrhizal products will not produce any deleterious effects as mycorrhizal products contain different beneficial fungal species which are naturally found in the soil. HYGROBEN is compatible with these types of products and often will function synergistically to provide optimal plant growth via direct and indirect mechanism of actions.
- Can I add HYGROBEN™ to my compost tea recipes and brew it with other microbially active ingredients?
HYGROBEN should be use in its unmodified form to achieve maximal result as the brewing process may cause some of the bacteria strains to grow faster than others, thus altering its optimal balance of the bacteria strains. Furthermore, some compost tea recipes may impede the propagation of the Bacillus species in HYGROBEN over the other microbes and hinder the brewing process. We recommend using HYGROBEN as directed.
- What are the best conditions to store HYGROBEN™?
To preserve the shelf life and potency of the beneficials in HYGROBEN, the best place to store it is away from direct sunlight in a cool place. Keep temperature below 80°F / 27°C for storage. HYGROBEN is still viable once frozen as long the product is brought back to room temperature and well shaken before application.
- How long is HYGROBEN™ shelf life?
18 months from manufacturing date. For optimal results, use within 4 months of opening the bottle.
- Does HYGROBEN™ need to be shaken before each use?
Yes. Best used within 24 hours after mixing. If the mix is left for a prolong period, the Bacillus spores may settle near the container.
