Products: Probiotics

SoilSoup Probiotic is a mildly acidic solution that is used to treat stressed tree roots. A stressed tree will often exhibit foliage problems showing spots or insect damage. Since trees have no immune system, they must rely on the symbiotic relationship between the roots and soil biota. If this goes wrong human intervention is required to bring back the balance. SoilSoup Probiotic reintroduces the beneficial microbes that include lactic acid producing bacteria that is much like yogurt or probiotic for humans. Other important families of microbes in this product include Actinomycetes of the phylum Actinobacteria which are the biochemical factories responsible for antibiotics such as streptomycin.

Testimonial:

I have used SoilSoup products in many versions over the years, both commercially (at Bainbridge Gardens Nursery), at home, and at our large public library garden on Bainbridge Island, where the Friday Tidy Volunteers have maintained the grounds sustainably and without toxic pesticides for over eleven years. We have observed some very heartening results from using the SoilSoup Probiotic blend on several trees and shrubs, notably a Japanese maple suffering from a variety of ills. There was considerable die-back, the mature leaves were badly curled, the new growth was tiny and misshapen, and all limbs displayed foliage damage. Within two months of treatment, the new growth was normally sized and had healthy color and texture. Though the weather has been challenging, with alternating periods of heat stress and sudden cold, this un-irrigated tree looks better than it has in several years. We have since been using the SoilSoup Probiotic blend on a number of troubled shrubs with consistently good initial results.
