Healthy plants begin as healthy seeds. So Germains’ disinfection processes are designed to remove seed-based fungal or bacterial pathogens, whilst also promoting the early emergence of seedlings.
Seed health also promotes healthier seedlings by promoting increased nutrient uptake. This involves the use of micronutrient-based coatings for the first day of seedling emergence to create a pH potential around the rhizospheres that promotes nutrient absorption from the soil.
Bio-Beneficials
Nature has a unique and astonishing ability to balance itself – for every seed, there are organisms that are harmful and damaging, along with others that are beneficial, and growth enhancing.
Bio-beneficials are Germains way of maximising the seed’s ability to benefit from that essential balance.
Beneficials are natural fungal or bacteria species that can help defend the emerging seedling from soil-borne pathogens, like pythium ultimum which leads to damping off within the first 7 – 10 days of a young plant’s growth.
Germains Bio-benefical expertise enables us to coat a seed with the live beneficial organisms that can best fight off the pathogens that threaten it.
