Big Foot is a new take on mycorrhizae. Informed by decades of research and experimenting to create the most effective product on the market today, the Big Foot team has made some of the biggest strides in the history of mycorrhizae root inoculants. If you're looking for a product driven by science and experience, you've come to the right place.
Big Foot Contains No Ectomycorrhizae or Trichoderma
The vast majority of garden crops and houseplants form with endomycorrhizae. So unless you have one of the few non-endo species, any ectomycorrhizae present in your root inoculant is just taking up space. Big Foot contains only endomycorrhizae, which is effective on 90% of plants.
Big Foot also contains no trichoderma, a competing fungi that is present in many competing products. Studies have shown that endomycorrhizae is more effective when trichoderma is absent.
Every Ingredient Works for Your Plants
Most products on the market don't utilize all of their potential. We created Big Foot to be efficient. During the first stage of development, we started to experiment with the carriers of our product. We quickly discovered that we can utilize carrier as a powerful tool -- replacing most of the traditional inert carriers found in other products with carriers that actually stimulate and promote the mycorrhizae. By combining the world's most powerful mycorrhizae with high-performing carrier ingredients, Big Foot has mycorrhizae colonization levels that are unrivaled.
