A dispersible powder containing selected fungal and bacterial species that have been optimised for breaking down herbaceous material.
Degrades unwanted field stubble, and recycles organic matter and nutrients back to the soil for use on the following crops:
Can be applied as a drench, or through irrigation lines.
Apply BactoLife SD at 3-4 kg/ha diluted in 200L of water.
The effectiveness of BactoLife SD is optimised if applied alongside UAN fertiliser, molasses, and/or BioHumate, all of which act as easily available microbial food sources to allow the fungi to start their growth. 30K/ha nitrogen and 5 litres/ha of molasses to initiate breakdown. BactoLife SD is also suitable for activation, see below.
BactoLife SD can also be brewed to make an ‘activated’ form. See technical data sheet for full instructions.
Compost activation
BactoLife SD also makes an effective compost activator/accelerant.
Make up a solution containing 0.5kg of BactoLife SD dissolved in 100 litres of clean water, together with 5kg brown sugar and 15 litres of liquid nitrogen (UAN). Spray this mix over the compost to wet and disperse thoroughly without soaking. Turn regularly and maintain 55-60% moisture.
Consult safety and technical data sheets above for further details.
