Mycorrhizae are host specific and will only colonize certain plants; so in some soils, there are no native mycorrhizae that will benefit these plants. Therefore, most plants would benefit from mycorrhizae addition to the soil. an arbuscule (little tree) endomycorrhizal structure.

What plants benefit from mycorrhizae?
A majority of plant species will benefit from mycorrhizal fungi
- Urban vegetable crops in soil or trays: onion, garlic, carrots, potatoes, tomatoes, peppers, cucurbits, asparagus, herbs and lettuce.
- Annuals in planters or flower beds: salvia, ornamental grasses, canna, ferns, aloe, gerbera.
Can plants survive without mycorrhizae?
Plants are able to get nutrients themselves through their roots, but they have a limited ability to do so. ... For many plants living under difficult conditions, they wouldn't be able to survive at all without mycorrhizae.
Do plants need mycorrhizae?
This is particularly important in uptake of phosphorus, one of the major nutrients required by plants. When mycorrhizae are present, plants are less susceptible to water stress. ... When organic matter (compost) is added to improve a soil, mycorrhizae are important in making its nutrients available.
Do all plants have mycorrhizae?
Mycorrhizal fungi are a heterogeneous group of diverse fungal taxa, associated with the roots of over 90% of all plant species.
Can I add mycorrhizal fungi after planting?
Mix a solution of Mycorrhizae with non-chlorinated water and add as a soil or root drench. Taking care to water in well. The key, once again, is to make direct root contact. ... Similar to granular products, Mycorrhizae may be added every 10-14 days through plant establishment.

Can you add too much mycorrhizae?
Can I apply too much inoculum? No. You must apply enough inoculum so that the mycorrhizal fungus propagules will come into direct contact with roots that can be colonized.
Can mycorrhizae be harmful to plants?
The MYKE products contain fungi, but are not harmful to plants. How can this be explained? "Mycorrhiza" is the term used to describe the symbiotic relationship between mycorrhizal fungi and a plant's root system, a relationship both parties benefit from.
How do you feed mycorrhizae?
Mycorrhizae thrive on carbohydrates, which is part of what they receive in payment from the plant in exchange for helping the plant thrive. One way to boost beneficial microorganisms including mycorrhizae is to feed them with a carbohydrate additive such as molasses.
Can you add Rootgrow after planting?
Empathy AFTER PLANT TREE & SHRUB is NOT a substitute for using rootgrow™ at time of planting. For new plantings, or in poor soil conditions, we recommend using pure rootgrow™ mycorrhizal fungi applied close to the plant's roots.
What are the two types of mycorrhizae?
There are two main types of mycorrhiza: ectomycorrhizae and endomycorrhizae. Ectomycorrhizae are fungi that are only externally associated with the plant root, whereas endomycorrhizae form their associations within the cells of the host.
How long does mycorrhizae take to work?
The mycorrhizae go to work immediately after application to a growing plant root and will take about 4 weeks to establish the symbiotic relationship.
