Loosen the lid immediately to vent MycorrPlus and prevent pressure build‑up.
Store in a cool, shaded area below 120°F (ideally under 100°F).
Use MycorrPlus‑A or MycorrPlus‑O for soil improvement. Do not use for foliar applications until 64 oz have been applied. See detailed application instructions and learn about soil application best practices from the USDA NRCS.
Apply it alone or mix with fish, kelp, or liquid nitrogen (28%/32%). Always add MycorrPlus first, then water, then other additives. (Always perform a jar test.)
It can be applied in any season—early spring boosts that year's crop; fall or winter applications prepare the soil for next season.
Over‑application is rarely harmful, but more than 1 gal/acre may burn plant leaves.
Overcoming Application Challenges
- For shallow plowing/discing (≤6"), apply just before the final soil work or use chiseling.
- If cultivating, apply before cultivation.
- For in‑row or seed applications, use your usual tank mix.
- For side-dressing, mix 2 qt/acre with your nitrogen.
2. Moving Product Off the Leaf
- If no rain is forecast, use 40+ gal/acre; if rain is soon, 20 gal/acre; if watered in immediately, 3–10 gal/acre.
- May be applied via irrigation or drip (screen out fungus first).
- Mix with manure or lagoon water, then spread.
- For lagoon water, use 5 gal per 250,000 gal; for composting manure, use 12 oz per cubic yard.
Keeping the soil covered (using crop residue, forage, or cover crops) protects the beneficial microbes and maintains moisture.
MycorrPlus’s microbes free up phosphorus and potassium. Mycorrhizal fungi can even transport phosphorus from deep in the soil to the roots.
The nitrogen‑fixing bacteria in MycorrPlus need 4–5 months to work. For nitrogen‑demanding crops, you may reduce N by 30% or more. For anhydrous ammonia, apply 1 qt of MycorrPlus‑A two weeks after application.
Herbicides damage soil life. Wait 3+ days after knock‑down herbicides or 2–3 weeks after pre‑emergents before applying MycorrPlus.
- Apply as soon as possible for first‑time use.
- If sowing in under a month, apply after planting.
- If tilling (≤6"), apply just before the final soil work.
- After herbicides, wait at least 3 days (or 2–3 weeks for residuals) before applying MycorrPlus.
Foliar Application Guidelines
For foliar use: MycorrPlus‑F: 2 qt/acre ($18/acre) and MycorrPlus‑O‑F: 3 qt/acre ($23.10/acre). Apply in the morning or evening (below 80–85°F) using a 10 gal/acre tank mix or 3+ gal/acre by plane.
For areas less than one acre: Use 1 tsp per 100 sq. ft. in a gallon or 1 tsp per quart for pump sprayers.

Mycorr Plus is likely the only fertilizer you need for great pasture. Many farmers find that additional products like fish or kelp are unnecessary.
