MYKOS® is a fast-growing, beneficial fungus that increases nutrient and water uptake by forming a symbiotic relationship with the roots of a plant. MYKOS® is needed to break down, cycle, and retain nutrients as well as provide a front line of defense against environmental stresses, pathogens, and diseases. MYKOS® will continue to grow with your plants becoming an extension of the roots and administering better efficiency and sustainability. With a larger and healthier root system, plants are given the opportunity to increase crop yields and secondary metabolites.

MYKOS® works fast and creates strong roots in 95% of common plants. MYKOS® is a single species of Endo-mycorrhizal fungi, Rhizophagus intraradices, eliminating any type of root competition. Why only Endo-mycorrhizae? Ecto-mycorrhizae has no beneficial effect on vegetables, fruits, flowers, and herbs.

MYKOS® helps new plantings reduce transplant shock by stimulating new root growth. MYKOS® forms hyphae that increase the root mass resulting in more absorption of nutrients and moisture. The fungal network can transport nutrients over large distances and deliver them directly into the root cell. Plants supply MYKOS® with energy in the form of carbohydrates that are produced during photosynthesis. Individual plants can become connected with other plants through this mycorrhizal network, sharing nutrients, sugars, and water as well as attracting more soil microbes.

MYKOS® protects your plants against drought & heat stress. As well as keeping harmful pathogens from making root contact. MYKOS® can also improve the soil structure both in clay soil and sandy soil. MYKOS® also helps break down organic compounds and convert them into plant available plant food.
