Composition
Basic composition of NatureMate Products
1. NatureMate products provide an available long chain carbon material to
the soil structure. Carbon is a basic element for all life forms. This
matrix promotes enhanced soil microbial activity for both indigenous
bacteria and those added to the soil, especially mycorrhizae. This aids in
the formation of a balanced soil structure for proper plant development, and
aids in the decomposition of residual plant material, especially thatch.
2. NatureMate products provide a full spectrum of organic acids, including
humic and fulvic acids, that are essential to plant development. These act
as organic "chelators," which enhance the uptake and utilization of vital
plant nutrients contained in both organic and conventional fertilizers. Due
to their negative ionic characteristics, these organic acids increase the
cation exchange capacity (CEC) of the soil, which enhances the transfer of
nutrients through the cell membranes of plant root materials.
3. NatureMate SeaMate provides natural growth stimulants and vital
nutrients for enhanced plant growth and development in the form of a
highly-concentrated, water-soluble powder packaged in convenient plastic
bottles for easy mixing. It is produced through an advanced spray drying
technology.
