rootgrow™ was originally launched in 2004 as a soil additive to stimulate outstanding root growth in newly planted shrubs. Since its introduction huge interest has been shown in its amazing ability to improve the quality of seedlings and plants as they develop and it is frequently mentioned on TV and in the press rootgrow™ is a Mycorrhizal Fungi attached to an inert carrier. Once in contact with the plant’s roots the fungi rapidly develop, acting as a secondary root system for most plants. Plants are able to draw in more nutrients and become stronger, producing more flowers and fruit.
