Product Description
Bio MP™ (5-3-2)
High Carbohydrate Molasses-Based Soil Conditioner
For Poor Soil Microbial Activity
Bio MP is a high carbohydrate, molasses-based soil conditioner designed to stimulate biological activity by providing an immediately available energy source. Bio MP is particularly well suited for soils with thatch layers, soils with extremely low organic matter content and soils with anaerobic conditions caused by compaction. Improved biological activity helps improve natural nutrient availability in the soil.
- Food source for soil microbes
- Stimulates soil microbial activity
- Restores healthy soil biology
- Improves plant vigor
Application Instructions
Bio MP can be applied through fertigation, conventional spray, or root injection. It may be applied alone or tank mixed with other products✝. Shake well before using.
Conventional Spray:
Apply 6 to 15 oz. diluted in 2 to 2.5 gallons of water per 1,000 sq. ft. (2 to 5 gallons diluted in 80 to 100 gallons of water per acre) per month. To maximize performance, rates may be split into weekly or bi-weekly applications.
Soil Drench:
Mix 1 – 2 fl. oz. of Bio MP per gallon of water. Drench to thoroughly saturate the root zone. Repeat application monthly or as needed.
Root Injection:
Dilution Rate: Mix 32 fl. oz. of Bio MP per 100-gallon tank. Apply as needed.
Operating pressure: 150 – 200 lbs PSI or ½ gal per 4 seconds
Area Method: Trees: Apply 50 gallons of solution per 1,000 sq. ft. Inject 4-8 inches into the soil where the feeder roots typically occur. Begin injections 1-3 feet out from the trunk to avoid injury to large roots and work in a grid pattern away from the tree to within 2 feet of the drip line. Apply 1 pint (16 fl. oz.) of diluted solution per injection site at 18 inch spacing or ½ gallon (64 fl. oz.) of diluted solution per injection site at 3 foot spacing.
Shrubs: Apply 50 gallons of solution per 1,000 sq. ft. Inject one pint (16 fl. oz.) of diluted solution per injection site. Inject 4-6 inches into the soil with 18 inch spacing between injections.
DBH Method: Use the chart below to determine the volume of diluted solution to apply per inch of trunk diameter at breast height (DBH).
Tree Size (DBH Inch) | Diluted Solution / Inch DBH |
---|---|
Very Small (1-4”) | 0.5 gallon (64 fl. oz) |
Sm (5-7”) | 1 gallon |
Sm – Med (8-11”) | 1.5 gallons |
Medium (12-15”) | 2 gallons |
Med – Lrg (15-19”) | 2.5 gallons |
Large (20+”) | 3 gallons |
✝ Compatibility: perform a standard jar test to check compatibility with other products before mixing.
