Physiolith
TiMac Physiolith (calcified seaweed formerly known as Mermin) is a soil conditioner with calcareous mineral seaweed which limes and mineralises your soil. This unique product is full of microscopic pores that contain an abundance of trace minerals, seaweed and micro-organisms. These bacteria and fungi colonise and restructure your soil by forming soil crumbs that hold moisture, yet allowing excess rainwater to drain through.
This soil restructuring is of major importance in;
- increasing and maintaining the carrying capacity for animals, e.g. by extending grazing,
- minimising wheel damage from machinery, a cause of poor plant growth
- creating and maintaining vital soil aeration for soil nutrient mineralisation
- Spring soil warming, resulting in early plant growth
Physiolith is suitable for soils that require calcium and phosphorus in a natural, non-leaching form and contains the full spectrum of trace elements for healthy grass growth.
Physiolith increases the amount of fertilising elements released into your soil by;
- managing your soil pH at 6.5 to 7. At this measurement the main fertiliser elements, especially phosphorus, are increasingly available to the plant
- increasing earth worm and soil microbe activity which further increases plant food availability.
