What role do bacteria and fungi play in Molly's Succulent Mix?Updated 4 months ago

Rhizophagus irregularis and Bacillus pumilus are beneficial fungi and bacteria. Rhizophagus irregularis is a mycorrhizal fungus that acts as an extension of the plant's root system and is more effective in nutrient and water absorption than the roots themselves. Bacillus pumilus are bacteria that colonize plant roots; enhancing nutrient provision, controlling disease-causing pathogens, and promoting natural pest-defense systems. Every bag of Molly's Succulent Mix contains these beneficial microorganisms.
