Hydroponics

JDS Ecosolutions microbial products offer a unique advantage in hydroponic systems, where nutrient efficiency is critical. Large-scale indoor farms depend on precision and sustainability, and our strain-based formulations unlock the full potential of beneficial microbes. By introducing them into your hydroponic setup, you can experience faster nutrient absorption, stronger root systems, and increased resistance to disease. These products are designed to elevate productivity in advanced indoor grow operations and support high-yield outcomes.

Composting Solutions

Our microbial formulations significantly accelerate composting by enhancing the breakdown of organic matter and improving nutrient conversion. Carefully selected microbial strains work together to speed up compost maturation and enrich nutrient content. Integrating JDS Ecosolutions products into your composting process transforms organic waste into a valuable resource, supporting soil regeneration and contributing to a circular, low-impact farming system.

Foliar Spray

AguaPhos® is highly effective when applied as a foliar spray. It can utilize various carbon sources found on the leaf surface, including sugars and organic acids, to support its metabolism and function. The microorganism in AguaPhos® produces extracellular enzymes like cellulases and proteases that break down complex organic matter into simpler forms the bacteria can use.

When applied to leaves, AguaPhos® forms a biofilm that acts as a reservoir of nutrients, including amino acids, vitamins, and hormones. These nutrients are readily absorbed through the leaf surface, complementing root-based nutrient intake. The biofilm also provides protection against environmental stress, regulates pH and moisture on the leaf surface, and creates a favorable environment for nutrient absorption. In addition, it helps suppress the growth of harmful pathogens by limiting their ability to colonize, making it an effective solution for organic farming systems.

AguaPhos® has demonstrated biopesticide activity against pathogens like powdery mildew and Botrytis. It produces chitinases and beta-1,3-glucanases that break down fungal cell walls, as well as metabolites like hydrogen peroxide and organic acids that inhibit pathogen growth. It can also trigger systemic acquired resistance (SAR) in plants, enhancing their natural defense mechanisms. While the microorganism has broad-spectrum activity, results may vary depending on environmental conditions and the specific pathogen involved. For best results, apply early in the infection cycle and alongside sound agronomic practices.

Before applying AguaPhos® at scale, it’s important to conduct small-scale tests to account for plant-specific responses.

Seed Coating

AguaPhos® can also be used as a seed coating to enhance seedling vigor, nutrient uptake, and early-stage plant growth. It offers multiple benefits during germination and establishment.

It protects seeds from pathogens such as fungi, bacteria, and viruses by producing antibiotics and other secondary metabolites. It solubilizes key nutrients like phosphorus, making them more available during early growth. AguaPhos® also stimulates root development by producing auxins and cytokinins, helping seedlings establish more quickly and effectively in soil.

Its ability to improve drought tolerance is another advantage. AguaPhos® produces osmoprotectants like trehalose, which help maintain water balance and cell structure under stress. By enhancing nutrient uptake and use efficiency, it supports stronger early growth, higher yields, and improved crop quality.

Using AguaPhos® as a seed coating creates a healthier foundation for plant development, offering both protection and improved performance under a range of conditions.
