MICROMIX:
BIOTECHNICAL NOURISHMENT
​
​
​
​
INTRODUCTION
Micromix accelerates development by providing optimal nourishing conditions, which considerably reduces the stresses usually encountered by plants. Plants with larger, fleshier, more abundant leaves, stimulate a higher quantity and quality of produce. The growth gap of stressed, overworked land can be regained and surpassed in an extremely short period by Micromix.
DISEASE PREVENTION
Diseases in plants occur in situations in which the soil has become imbalanced, nutrient deficient and suffers from exhaustion. Micromix corrects imbalances and deficiencies in the soil, allowing the plant to restore its health. A healthy plant can synthesize its own anti-cryptogamic substances and antibodies (i.e phytoalexins). This fact, together with Micromix microorganisms actively competing against pathogens reveals a synergetic series of physical, chemical and biological reactions that intercept pathogens.
INCREASED CHLOROPHYLL PRODUCTION
Micromix promotes an increase in the abundance and size of leaves. It directly stimulates the production of chlorophyll, which in turn builds up the number of chloroplasts while increasing their efficiency. The following are a direct result:
- Cells are larger
- Cuticles are thicker and stronger
-
​Lymphatic vessels get bigger, letting the lymph circulate easier thus consuming less energy
-
Plant fibers expand in size. Plants are greener and healthier
​
DEFENSE AGAINST PHYTOPHAGOUS ATTACKS
Micromix treated plants combat insects’ masticatory damage by quickly converting the sugars in their lymph to alcohol making it toxic to most insects. Cell membranes and cuticles covering the leaves’ epidermis are thicker and stronger. All the plant’s parts are tougher, giving them better protection from insect attack which, in turn, helps to control the phytophagous insects’ local population levels. In short, a plant which receives Micromix can intensify its defense system by combining an effective biochemical solution with a robust physical resistance.
​
​
STRENGTHEN ROOT SYSTEMS
Micromix improves the efficiency of active root hairs, saving plants the energy they require creating new roots. Moreover, roots in the presence of Micromix have increased life spans, further conserving energy which can now be redirected to the aerial parts of the plant (leaves, flowers etc). When root hairs die, they excrete toxins warning other root hairs not to seek nutrients in that micro-habitat. Micromix quickly detoxifies the micro-habitat, breaking down the old roots and converting them to nutrients, preparing the area for new capillary elements to grow. The fact that new roots don’t need to explore for nutrients, is a saves plants a lot of energy.
​
BREAKS DOWN WASTE & RESTORES SOILS
Microorganisms consume organic matter for energy; the nutrient elements within that matter are then returned as “waste” back to the soil. The result is rich top soil known as humus, from which plants can absorb nutrients very easily. Humus is the best fertilizer in the world and plants have been evolving for millennia growing in it, since it is the best source of nutrition. Micromix contains all the essential micro and macro elements plants require. Learn more about hummus here: https://kissthegroundmovie.com/

Bakery Upgrade & Municipal Sludge Digestion
Applications utilizing the MicroMix biological supplement to improve treatment service performance.
1. BAKERY UPGRADE – This application included optimization of the treatment system and aerobic sludge disaster
2. MUNICIPAL SLUDGE DIGESTION – Application was to test the effectiveness of utilizing the supplement to reduce sludge disposal costs at municipal waste water plant.
Oil Decomposition Process
Oil like all hydrocarbons, are comprised of carbon and hydrogen and can be gaseous (natural gas), fluid (oil) or semi-solid (asphalt and bitumen). Thanks to the high carbon contents of oil and its derivatives they are all excellent raw materials to produce organic mineral fertilizers with a high humus content capable of remaining in the soil for a long time.
