These fungi are 8 species of trichoderma and 16 species endo and ecto mycorrhizal. Trichoderma are very aggressive colonizers that enhance root mass, and provide excellent control from root rot, pythium and pytophethoria.

Dr. Hornby's Piranha Beneficial Fungi is an effective foliar spray against fungi that attack plant foliage. (ie. Pythium spp., Rhizoctania solani, Fusarium spp., Botrytis cinerea (bud rot), Sclerotium rolfsii, and Sclerotinia homoeocarpa)

There are over 50,000 research studies on the mycorrhizal relationship. The mycorrhizal fungi excrete powerful chemicals that dissolve mineral nutrients, absorb water, retard soil pathogens, and glue soil particles together into porous structure. Mycorrhizal can expand the surface area of the root mass by 700%. Both plant and fungus benefit from the symbiotic relationship.

Research has documented improved plant nutrient and water uptake and resistance to a wide range of soil diseases and environmental extremes. Plants establish fruit and flower more abundantly and require less intensive care. This is a major reason why plants form natural undisturbed areas can thrive for decades and centuries without irrigation, fertilizer and pesticides. The mycorrhizal network is the original World Wide Web.
