Biotabs Mycotrex 100gr
Biotabs Mycotrex 100 grams is the most concentrated mycorrhizal inoculant available, delivering 88 endomycorrhizal spores per gram across 9 distinct species. These beneficial fungi establish symbiosis with the root system, expanding nutrient uptake capacity by up to 700 percent. The formulation includes beneficial Rhizo bacteria, seaweed meal and humic acid for immediate root zone stimulation. Apply 5 grams directly in the planting hole for established plants, or mix 3 grams per cutting or seedling into the substrate. The 100 gram pack treats 20 to 33 plants depending on application rate. Explore the measurable impact of mycorrhizal colonisation on plant performance and yield potential.
Biotabs Mycotrex 100 g — highest-concentration mycorrhizal inoculant for 700% root uptake expansion
Root system efficiency is the single most impactful variable in organic cultivation, yet it remains the most underoptimised. The reason is straightforward: roots alone can only access nutrients within their physical reach. Mycorrhizal fungi fundamentally change this equation by extending the functional absorption network far beyond root boundaries. Biotabs Mycotrex delivers this capability in the most concentrated commercial formulation available — 88 spores per gram, 9 endomycorrhizal species — engineered to colonise root systems rapidly and establish a 700% increase in uptake capacity. The 100 g format is the entry-level size in the Biotabs range.
Colonisation mechanism and performance data
The endomycorrhizal spores in Mycotrex germinate upon contact with root exudates and penetrate cortical root cells to form vesicular-arbuscular structures — the biological interface where nutrient exchange occurs. From these intracellular structures, an extensive network of ultrafine hyphae extends into the substrate, accessing pore spaces too small for root hairs to reach. Peer-reviewed research consistently demonstrates that plants with established mycorrhizal networks exhibit:
- Dramatically improved phosphorus uptake — hyphae access phosphate-rich zones beyond the root depletion zone
- Enhanced water acquisition — the hyphal network increases effective soil contact surface area by orders of magnitude
- Increased silicon absorption — strengthening cell walls and improving structural resilience
- Improved pathogen resistance — mycorrhizal colonisation triggers enhanced plant immune responses
Species composition and concentration
Mycotrex contains 9 endomycorrhizal species including Glomus intraradices, Glomus mosseae and Glomus claroideum — species with the broadest documented host plant compatibility. At 88 spores per gram, Mycotrex delivers significantly higher inoculation density than competing products. The formulation also includes beneficial Rhizo bacteria for initial root stimulation, seaweed meal providing natural growth regulators, and humic acid to enhance cation exchange capacity in the root zone.
Application protocol
Apply 5 grams (5 level teaspoons) directly in the planting hole for established plants. For cuttings and seedlings, mix 3 grams per plant into the substrate. Direct contact between the inoculant and the root zone is critical for spore germination. Integrate Mycotrex with Startrex soil conditioner and Bactrex root protectant for a complete biological substrate system.
The 100 g pack treats 20 plants at 5 g/plant or up to 33 cuttings at 3 g/plant. For larger operations, the 500 g bulk format offers a lower per-gram cost.

How much Biotabs Mycotrex should I apply per plant?
Apply 5 grams (5 level teaspoons) per established plant, placed directly in the planting hole. For cuttings and seedlings, 3 grams per plant mixed into the substrate is sufficient. Ensure direct contact between the product and the root zone for optimal spore germination.
Does Biotabs Mycotrex work in coco coir?
Mycotrex is fully compatible with both soil and coco coir substrates. Endomycorrhizal fungi form their symbiosis with plant roots regardless of the growing medium type. The application protocol is identical in both substrate types.
What mycorrhizal species does Biotabs Mycotrex contain?
Mycotrex contains 9 endomycorrhizal species: Glomus intraradices, Glomus mosseae, Glomus claroideum, Glomus etunicatum, Glomus clarum, Glomus microaggregatum, Glomus geosporum, an additional Glomus sp. and Entrophospora colombiana. This species diversity ensures effective colonisation across a wide range of host plants.
How many plants does 100 grams of Mycotrex treat?
The 100 g pack treats 20 established plants at the standard rate of 5 grams per plant, or up to 33 cuttings and seedlings at the reduced rate of 3 grams per plant.
