Features and Benefits Significantly increases yield Enhances root and top growth Complexes iron bound ion the soil No PHI or REI Non-phytotoxic and no residue 100% water soluble - no clogging Approved for organic use, OMRI listed Not harmful to bees and beneficial insects How it Works Colossus utilizes a potent strain of Streptomyces that was found in an Idaho potato field. It stood out among the thousands of isolates for its ability to colonize plants’ roots as well as its production of a myriad of beneficial secondary metabolites. Colossus produces Siderophores at elevated levels, which allows the plants to draw the normally unavailable iron and nutritive metals from the soil as needed, even at high pH soils. Colossus uses the enzyme Chitinase as a biostimulant, promoting growth, increasing drought resistance and enhancing soil health.
