Soil health directly correlates to plant health. There is an enormous amount of nutrients in the soil, but only a small percentage is actually in a form that the plant can take up.
Soil microbes convert soil nutrients into a form the plant can absorb and use. But, if a soil's microbial community is stressed by poor growing conditions like soil compaction, excess moisture, or not enough moisture, up to 80% of microbes can remain dormant or inactive!
That's why Rhyzogreen® is designed to hyper-activate the microbes in the soil, so they can do a better job of unlocking those nutrients that are already existing in your soil.
It’s important to note that Rhyzogreen® has shown better performance in marginal and sandy soils. Simply put, there’s more room for improvement in these areas, so Rhyzogreen® makes a larger impact.
ypically, you'll need 1/5 of a gallon per acre; another way to look at that is 1 gallon for every 5 acres. Consult the product label or your Rhyzogreen® rep for more specific details.
Blend recommended amounts of Rhyzogreen® with 5-25 gallons of water per acre for foliar application or a minimum of 2 gallons of water per acre for in-furrow application. For best results, foliar applications should be made in the morning hours when the air is cool.

Grazing Pastures - 1 gallon per 5 acres. Foliar - Early spring after greenup. For best performance repeat application every 90 days during active growing season.
Small Grain - 1 gallon per 5 acres. Foliar - No earlier than 3 leaf stage.
Corn & Sunflowers - 1 gallon per 5 acres. In-furrow or foliar - No earlier than 3 leaf stage.
Potatoes - 1 gallon per 5 acres. In-furrow or foliar twice a year.
Soybeans - 1 gallon per 5 acres. In-furrow or foliar - No earlier than second trifoliate stage.
Sugar Beets - 1 gallon per 5 acres. In-furrow application - Apply 1 gallon per 5 acres with minimum 2 gallons of water. Foliar application - Apply 1 gallon per 5 acres on first pass as soon as possible after 4 leaf stage.
Yard Grass Receiving Continuous Mowing - 2 gallons per 5 acres. Foliar - Early spring after greenup. For best performance repeat application every 30 days during active growing season.
