Is BioSparkAG™ a biocide?
BioSparkAG™ is 100% organic. It isn't a biocide in the general sense of the word, but it will feed the beneficial bacteria that outcompetes pathogens, as well as providing the plant with greater strength and vitality.
How is BioSparkAG™ applied?
BioSparkAG™ is applied primarily as a simple foliar spray. Water serves only as a carrier. Effectiveness depends on the quantity of mineral blend delivered per surface area, not on dilution ratios.
When should I spray?
Apply as a foliar spray, early morning or late afternoon. If possible, aim for the underside of the leaves.
When do I stop before harvest?
Apply during planting and throughout the growing season until 15 days before harvest, to ensure no rock dust remains on the product.
Can I keep applying after harvest?
After harvest, continue applying regularly unless conditions are freezing. Continuing to apply supports the natural processes for the next growing season.
What is one dose?
1 dose = 3 pounds. The general rate is 1 dose per acre per month. Almonds, olives, and oranges use that rate. Garlic uses 2 doses per acre per month. Blueberries and strawberries use 2.5 doses per acre per month, split into two applications.
How much water do I mix it with?
Almonds, garlic, olives, and oranges: mix with 80 gallons of water or more per acre. Blueberries and strawberries: mix with 125 gallons of water or more per acre.
Can it replace my fertilizer?
It can be used as an additive, as a partial replacement, or as a full replacement for fertilizers, with no negative side effects to people or the environment.
What is BioSparkAG™ made of?
BioSparkAG™ is engineered from a proprietary blend of metamorphic rock dust, created by precision-grinding select mineral-rich stones. It is 100% natural and completely unaltered by chemicals.
Which crops have a protocol?
Almonds, blueberries, garlic, olives, oranges and other citrus, and strawberries. For another crop, contact us for a dosage set to that crop.
Is it safe for the crop and the environment?
BioSparkAG™ is completely safe for users, animals, plants, and the environment, with no adverse effects of any kind. The mineral blend is recognized in the FAO Codex Alimentarius, and it is supported by certifications granted by the State of California, including a fertilizing materials license and registration as an organic input material.
