RAW Microbes Bloom 8oz- Beneficial Microbial Inoculant for Flowering Plants - Boosts Nutrient Uptake and Enhances Bloom Development

I grow almost all of our veggies and herbs indoors under LED lights year around, and have been doing this for about 7 years. Although I use a good potting soil (FoxFarm Ocean Forest), most potting soils are sterilized to eliminate pests. This also destroys most of the beneficial microbes and bacteria naturally found in outdoor soil. These microbes and bacteria are necessary to break down nutrients and organic matter in the soil for the plants to use them and creates a "living" soil environment that promotes natural health of plants. They also help to make plant foods more readily available for use by the plants.I use this Raw Microbes Bloom formula for my tomatoes and peppers when they are blooming. I find that I get more flowers and larger fruits from my plants. I have had pepper plants growing and producing indoors for almost 4 years, and tomato plants that continue to produce for over 3 years.If you grow veggies outside in a garden, using these microbes helps to replenish the natural microbes in soil that can be killed by using insecticides and weed killers. Whether you are growing indoors or outdoors, you plants require microbial bacteria in the soil to help breakdown nutrients so the plants can use them. Healthy soil means healthy plants that are more productive.You need to use only 1/2 tsp. per gallon of water, so, a a little goes a long way. In my experience, I feel that it mixes well with water. I add the microbes and plant food to the watering can, fill the watering can with water, and immediately use the solution to water my plants. Instructions for some plant food advise not to keep solution that is not used as the nutrients may settle. Since I use all of the solution in the watering can, I have not seen evidence of anything settling to the bottom of the watering can. I find that the 8 ounce bag is more economical than the 2 ounce bag, but have started purchasing the 2 lb. bag because of the number of plants I have.I hope this review was helpful for you.

I've been gardening for 30 plus years and it's all I do spring through summer. I was completely in awe of the results which usually followed one to two days later. I was weary of price, but it lasted me the entire season which made it well worth it and will continue to use this product from here on out.

Plants loved this stuff

Mighty Microbes! Bigger the roots bigger the fruit! took a star off for the missing exp date :(

To completely understand this item you have to have some kind of knowledge in microbial life and system within your soil. So many claims on here saying it didn’t do anything are just people who expect fairy dust to be sprinkled over their soil and completely explode their garden. That just isn’t possible. These are microbial amendments and either need to be watered in or top dressed, I do both on separate waterings. One top dress with regular water and one mixed with water and watered in. I then feed my plants molasses extract and some honey to feed those microbials in the soil and keep them alive. This allows my nutrients to be better broken down and given to my plants. Overall I am very happy, these microbial auto balance PH of soil when completely thriving so i am happy.

This stuff works better than another mycorizha or benifical bacteria I've seen at the hydro stores first off because it's got benifical bacteria and benifical fungi most products only have one or the other and this has both I got it for my garden but it's too cold so i decided to sprinkle some in my compost bin as I have with all the benificals I've bought in the past and nothing else makes webbing the next day i seen it grow literally the next day there was white mycelium webbing everywhere on the top layer of compost

The media could not be loaded. 1 of My Favorites of the RAW lineup & easy to use and your plants will be happy you gave them some. Helps them to uptake their nutrients without this one your plants will grow to the max

I love using the Raw Bloom Microbes for sprinkling my roots when transplanting and it promotes growth nicely.
