Are MYKE®
products compatible with most chemical fertilizers and pesticides? |
|
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
Yes, but when using soluble fertilizers (i.e. 20-20-20)
with a high phosphorus rate (more than 10%), the quantity to apply is
half the manufacturer's recommended dosage. |

Are MYKE® growth supplements
compatible with all plant species? |
|
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
 Extensive
university research has proven that mycorrhizal fungi colonize 90% of
all plants and only a few plant species are not receptive to them. However,
these exceptions will not be negatively affected if mycorrhizae are used.
Consult the list of exceptions in each product section. Click on the following link for the complete list of incompatibilities.

What quantity of MYKE® should I apply? |
|
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
The quantity required when planting depends on the root
ball size of each type of plant. For example, the root mass of a tree
will be different from that of a tomato plant and the quantity to apply
will differ as well. It is also necessary to adjust the application rate according
to the depth of the hole or furrow. Don't hesitate to consult our "HOW"
section to learn about the application rates for each product. |

My pet swallowed MYKE®;
is it dangerous for its health? |
|
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
None of our products contain ingredients that are harmful
to animals. They are made with 100% natural components and have
not been subjected to any transformation processes, unlike chemical fertilizers.
Even when ingested, our products will not harm your pets because they
don't contain any toxic substances. However, if your pet has swallowed some, don't hesitate to contact your veterinarian if you notice
any unusual behaviour. Just to be safe, keep out of reach of children and
pets. |

What should I do if I dropped my MYKE®
container and all its contents on my lawn? |
|
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
If you spilled your entire product at the same place on
your lawn or in your flowerbeds, it is recommended to pick up what you
can and put it back in the container.
If MYKE® growth supplements
are spilled, just add water to help the product penetrate into the soil.
For MYKE® fertilizers, spread what's left
on the ground or on the lawn and water thoroughly. MYKE® fertilizers contain slow realising nutrients, so they cause less harm than a chemical fertiliser, even when used in excess.
If product is spilled on the sidewalk, terrace or driveway,
clean off the excess product. |

How should I apply MYKE®
LAWN? |
|
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
It is recommended to spread 1.5 kg for 100 m2.
Spread it once with half of the suggested quantity and a second time in
the other direction with the other half (in a criss-cross pattern). |

What is mycorrhizae? |
|
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
 |
Mycorrhizal fungi have occurred naturally in the
soil for over 400 million years. They form a close symbiotic relationship
with plant roots. They are called mycorrhizae (from the Greek "mukès,
meaning fungus, and "rhiza," meaning roots). However,
in most soils that have been disturbed by residential construction,
or intensive cropping practices with applications of fertilizers
containing pesticides and other chemical products, the mycorrhizae
content has considerably diminished, and has become insufficient
to significantly enhance plant growth. |

|
What is the shelf life of MYKE®
products? |
|
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
All MYKE® products that contain
growth supplements have a 2-year shelf life when kept in optimal storage
conditions. |
|
|

|

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Can MYKE® growth supplements
be applied on established plants? |
|
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
 The
best moment to use the growth supplement is when seeding or planting.
It is however possible to apply MYKE® on
already established plants, trees and perennials, by adding MYKE®
as a side-dress, where new roots will develop in the drip-zone.

|
|
How should my MYKE®
products be stored away? |
|
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
MYKE® products containing
the mycorrhizae growth supplements will be
viable for up to 2 years as long as they are stored away from the freezing
cold and intensive heat periods (between 4 and 20 °C).
A short exposure (i.e. 1 week) will not significantly
affect the fungus' viability. As for our other products, simply keep in
a cool dry place.
