OverviewRoot Guard is an organic nitrogen fertilizer in suspension that contains the rhizosphere microorganism Trichoderma harzianum. It combines nutritional biostimulants (amino acids, humic acids and seaweed Ascophyllum nodosum) with a beneficial microorganism to promote root development, enhance nutrient uptake and limit soil-borne pathogens through hyperparasitism. Root Guard is authorised for organic agriculture and is suitable for application when soil temperature is not too low; spring and autumn applications are recommended.
