Frequently Asked Questions

General

Which species of bacteria are in Soil Restoration products?

Our products contain over 25+ species of bacillus as well as other oxygen- & nitrogen-producing aerobic bacteria that are custom blended to ensure optimal soil restoration results.

How are your products different from other products on the market?

The species of aerobic bacteria and fungi are recognized as beneficial in plant growth, and all macro-nutrients, micro-nutrients, and trace elements work to increase the energy in the soil for maximum plant growth.

Will Organic Soil Restoration products harm my animals or me?

No. Please refer to our Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) here.

Are there any temperature concerns (heating or freezing) to be aware of?

Storing the product above 125°F or in direct sunlight will dramatically decrease the population of beneficial bacteria. Freezing will have little effect. The bacteria go dormant when frozen, and become active when the temperature reaches 40-45°F.

What is the shelf life of your products?

It is recommended to use the product within the first year. However, tests have shown that, when properly stored in a cool, dark environment, the products may have a shelf-life of up to 2 years.

Organic DIGESTER-PLUS: Crops

When should I start my application of Organic DIGESTER-PLUS?

For annual crops, apply at first watering.

For perennial crops, such as alfalfa/grass/pasture, we recommend a split dose.

For crop residue breakdown, apply immediately after harvest.

Organic DIGESTER-PLUS: lagoons

WheN and where do I apply Organic DIGESTER-PLUS for manure digestion?

It is best to add ODP in the beginning of the cycle when there is the small amount of manure present in the lagoon or manure slurry storage unit.

For maximum efficacy, apply directly onto the raw material going into the system. As the product moves through the system, the population of the bacteria will increase. If solids are a problem in your lagoon, apply additional product directly under the solids.

I have agitation equipment in my lagoon. Should I use this equipment?

Yes, the agitation equipment will help Organic DIGESTER-PLUS and the manure to mix faster, which brings in additional oxygen and speeds up the digestion process.

What do I look for to know that Organic DIGESTER-PLUS is working?

Results have shown that the manure in the lagoon will be mostly liquefied, and there will be a reduction and change in the odor.

Will Organic DIGESTER-PLUS work on dry, crusted matter that has formed on top of my lagoon?

Yes, but we recommend applying it to the liquid below the crust for optimum digestion.

I have several feet of solids on the bottom of my lagoon. What will Organic DIGESTER-PLUS do?

Customers with lagoons in that condition have experienced a significant reduction in the amount of solids in a 14-day period, reducing it from 18 inches to 9 inches of solids within 9 days.*
