| FAQ - GREEN GOLD |
|
Green Gold is effective when plants are exposed to conditions of heat, drought, cold or hot drying winds, transplant shock, sudden temperature changes or frost and freeze. When Green Gold is applied appropriately, the entire surface of the plant leaf including both the upper and lower surfaces thoroughly coated to form a barrier against exposure to weather related stress.
Green Gold membrane allows normal stomatic activities, does not interfere with photosynthesis and will effectively reduce transpiration from approximately 35 to 50%. Although the coating permits unrestricted photosynthesis, it will not wash off when exposed to normal rainfall conditions.
By spraying of Green Gold, the ability of a plant to resist weather related stress conditions is directly proportional to the ability to retain moisture in the cells. |

|
| No, the effects of the protective membrane of Green Gold permits unrestricted photosynthesis and reducing moisture loss and thus increasing plant quality and production. |
| |
|
| Yes, Green Gold is non-toxic, biodegradable, and environmentally friendly and provides protection to the plants. |

| FAQ - VAM GOLD (Mycorhizal fungi) |
|
| “Mycor" - "rhiza" literally means "fungus" - "root" and defines the mutually beneficial relationship between the plant root and fungus. These specialized fungi colonize plant roots and extend far into the soil. Mycorrhizal fungal filaments in the soil are truly extensions of root systems and more effective in nutrient and water absorption than the roots themselves. |
| |
|
| Over 90% of the s plant species and require the association of mycorrhizae for maximum performance. |
| |
| Mycorrhizal fungi in VAM GOLD increase nutrient uptake not only by increase the surface absorbing area of roots, they also release powerful chemicals into the soil that dissolve hard to capture nutrients such as phosphorous , iron and other "tightly bound" soil nutrients. Mycorrhizal fungi form an intricate web that captures and assimilates nutrients, thus conserving the nutrient capital in soils. |
| |
|
| Undisturbed soils are full of beneficial soil organisms including mycorrhizal fungi. Research indicates, however, many common practices can degrade the mycorrhiza-forming potential of soil. Reintroducing VAM GOLD in areas where they have been depleted can dramatically improve plant establishment and growth. |
| |
|
| VAM GOLD application is easy and requires no special equipment. The goal is to create physical contact between the VAM GOLD and the plant root. VAM GOLD can be sprinkled onto roots during transplanting, worked into seed beds, blended into potting soil. |
