BIOSYS MICROBE TEA

Description

Biosys Microbe Tea is a water-soluble, instantly activating biological inoculant from Ecothrive that delivers a concentrated blend of beneficial bacteria, fungi, and enzymes directly to the root zone through your irrigation water. Unlike most microbial products that require preparation time or special application equipment, Biosys dissolves completely in water in minutes to create a living microbial tea that can be applied through standard irrigation systems, watering cans, and drippers — bringing the power of a complex, diverse soil biology directly to your plants’ roots with every application.

The Role of Beneficial Microbes in Plant Growing

In natural ecosystems, plant roots exist within a complex web of microbial life — bacteria, fungi, protozoa, and other organisms that cycle nutrients, suppress pathogens, and produce compounds that directly stimulate plant growth. Indoor growing systems, particularly those using processed growing media, lack this natural microbial diversity. Reintroducing a diverse community of beneficial microbes through a product like Biosys Microbe Tea restores this biological activity, improving nutrient availability, root health, and plant resilience in ways that pure nutrient feeding alone cannot achieve. Ecothrive is a UK-based company with a deep research commitment to beneficial biology in horticulture. Their Biosys formulation is one of the most complex and diverse microbial inoculants available to UK growers. At The Horticulture Company, the Ecothrive range has become an important part of our organic and living soil growing recommendations.

How to Make and Apply Biosys Microbe Tea

Dissolve the recommended quantity of Biosys powder in clean, dechlorinated water. The powder activates rapidly — you can apply within 30 minutes of mixing or allow to brew longer for higher microbial populations. Apply as a root drench from the seedling stage throughout the vegetative and early flowering phases. Use every one to two weeks as a regular biological maintenance dose. Biosys is compatible with organic nutrient programmes and with most plant-based growing media including soil, peat, coco, and composted blends. Avoid using with products containing chlorine, hydrogen peroxide, or other sanitising agents that would kill the living microorganisms before they can colonise the root zone.
