GROWING DETAILS

Organics Alive® solution is a powerful inoculant. It can be used in conjunction with synthetic minerals and fertilizers. The beneficial biology will consume the mineral salts and provide the needed nutrients to the plant. OAS is not regarded as NPK rather it is beneficial biology that supplies the necessary nutrients symbiotically with the plant.

The Organics Alive® hydro-organics method is truly one of a kind. Research shows that balanced biology that is extracted fresh and used within 5-8 hours provides the highest levels of biological diversity, vitality, and nutritional biology. Research also shows that 50% of the diversity and all protozoa biology are lost when pH falls below 5. To stabilize multiplying biology that is in a bottle, you must bring the pH to a level 3, resulting in the loss of most if not all beneficial biology.

Caution: Organics Alive® is fresh concentrated biology. It has a shelf life of 12 hours which can be prolonged for 5 days in 40 degree refrigeration. OAS smells earthy and pleasant when fresh and very objectionable when no longer viable.

Q&A

How Does OAS affect my pH?

Research tells us that beneficial biology like the biology in OAS consume nutrients and are then recycled by either protozoa, chitin degraders or cellulose degraders. The waste then is a chelated form of nutrients ready for absorption by the plant. Chelated nutrients do not depend on pH, therefore pH becomes less significant.
Note: If pH falls below 5 biology will struggle to process nutrients.

Is Reverse Osmosis water necessary for extraction?

Research shows that chlorine, chloramines, and peroxide will destroy biological organisms. Any water with the absence of these elements is recommended.
Note: High levels of sulfur or extremely high metals will disturb biological growth.

Does OAS Burn?

OAS is non-toxic and has no significant NPK value. OAS will not burn your plants if you follow the recommended dosage.

Will OAS clog my tubes and drip irrigation?

For Areoponics and drip irrigation, Organics Alive® recommends a dilution rate of 1:50. This further diluted amount will ensure less bio-film build up in reservoirs and drippers. Chitin degraders and cellulose degraders will keep bio-films low by consuming the excess carbon build up.
Note: A filter mesh greater than 30 or 400 micrometers must be used to allow beneficial fungi to pass.
