bio365 BIOSTART™ is an engineered propagation mix designed to deliver class-leading germination rates and seamless compatibility with automated propagation equipment. Built from fine peat, perlite, and coco coir and powered by bio365's patented bioCHARGE® and ultimateAIR™ technologies, BIOSTART gives cuttings and seeds the best possible start — with a forgiving, biologically active environment from day one.
Features & Benefits
-
Optimized for propagation: Fine peat and perlite particle sizes maximize seed and root contact for superior germination rates while flowing smoothly through automated propagation machinery.
-
Wide sweet spot: The dual biochemical buffer creates a forgiving media that's highly tolerant of minor environmental fluctuations and grower error — ideal for both new and experienced propagators.
-
Starter nutrient charge: Contains a measured charge of bioavailable organic nutrients to support early root development while leaving full control of feeding to the grower.
-
bioCHARGE® technology: Delivers consistent, wide-spectrum beneficial microbiology — including Bacillus megaterium at 25,000 cfu/g — for a biologically active root environment from the first day of propagation.
-
ultimateAIR™ high porosity: Engineered air-filled porosity promotes rapid root development and reduces the risk of damping off.
-
Ready to use immediately: Arrives uncompressed and evenly hydrated — no pre-soaking or prep required.
-
OMRI Listed® for organic use: FSMA pathogen-tested, made entirely indoors in the USA, and compatible with both organic and salt-based nutrient programs.
