It creates a network in the root zone that acts like a nutrient- and water-absorbing sponge, helping plants access resources more efficiently. This product contains only Rhizophagus intraradices (formerly Glomus intraradices) and does not include other microbes such as Trichoderma or ectomycorrhizae. It is especially supportive for tomato plants, among other garden crops.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Benefits\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSingle-species formulation focused on Rhizophagus intraradices for a streamlined, predictable inoculation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePure, fresh, alive granular material packaged in a 1-lb bag for easy handling.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSupports root extension and nutrient access without adding synthetic inputs, aligning with organic gardening goals.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatible with typical soil mixes and garden beds, including container gardening for tomatoes.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow It Works\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the rhizosphere, the fungal network extends tiny hyphae that increase soil contact and surface area around roots. This expanded interface helps plants explore more of the surrounding soil for nutrients and moisture, potentially enhancing uptake during growth. The focus on a single mycorrhizal partner allows growers to tailor expectations around established crop needs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eReal-Life Use Scenarios\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003estart tomato transplants in potting mix or garden beds with a light incorporation of the granules near the root zone\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003et provide a steady foundation for early root development in new plantings\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003esupport growth in marginal soils or in containers where root exploration is limited\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat You Get \u0026amp; How to Use\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne 1-pound bag of granular MYKOS RT4401 designed for garden beds, raised beds, starter pots, and greenhouse settings.
