- Total Grow period – 22 Weeks
- Treatment period – 7 weeks

Picture to the right (100% compost, treated – 100% compost with Aguaphos®)
- Treated plants had 15-20% more leaves and more tassels
- Phosphate levels in Aquaphos® treated plant-roots were 12.7% higher
Cannabis Trials: Hydroponic Grow house
5 week treatment, flowering stage only
Key differences:
- Wet weights of Aquaphos® treated plants (1.5g/week) was 27.3% higher than control
- Buds of Aquaphos® treated plants were larger than control samples
Control bud: ~32 mm x 62 mm
Hi-dose bud ~40 mm x 80 mm

Test done in a customer’s backyard
Customer Testimonial
“The product provided worked great. I have 2 rows of grape vines on a slope. I applied the product on the lower row and none to the upper row. All things being equal and similar, this years product from the upper untreated row was about 5 kgs of grapes versus 35 kgs of grapes from the lower row. Fantastic product. I plan to apply to both rows next year.”
Potato Trials – Yield Performance with MycoMor ULTRA®
Field trials were conducted at two different farm locations to evaluate the impact of MycoMor ULTRA® on potato crop yield. Each trial compared a control (untreated) group with plants treated in-furrow.
