A highly-concentrated, targeted blend of three growth-promoting rhizobacteria that can be used with organic or conventional growing practices to increase crop quality and quantity.
The bacteria in Tribus Original work symbiotically with the plant by producing extracellular enzymes and other biochemicals that maximize nutrient availability and uptake, improving root and stem growth, and increasing the plant’s growth rate, quality, and yield.
Tribus Original will populate the root zone of plants in all medias and does not cause problematic biofilm formation in hydroponic applications.
Proven Results:
Pro Tip: Use Tribus Original on seedlings to reduce the time from cut to root in clones while simultaneously encouraging vigorous development of new Roots.
Consortia
Tribus Original is a combination of three growth-promoting bacteria that work syngergistically to promote aggressive plant growth. Together, these bacteria mobilize locked-out and soil-bound nutrients that are otherwise unavailable to the plant and encourage root growth for greater nutrient and water uptake.
Persistence
The bacteria in Tribus have each other's back. On top of their endospore-forming ability, which helps them stick to soil particles instead of washing-out and helps them survive fluctuations in pH, water and nutrients, and temperatues, each species of bacteria in Tribus help each other thrive in the root zone. This means that Tribus continues to work in complex field-soil ecosystems where other inoculants lose efficacy almost immediately after application.
Efficacy
From the field to the greenhouse, Tribus promotes rapid plant growth in ways traditional inputs can't. The high concentration of bacteria ensures efficacy even at extremely low application rates, and the nutrient-mobilizing capabilities of Tribus means that most farmers can fertilize less and yield more while improving their soil quality for years to come.
Universal
Tribus can be tank-mixed and applied with all types of fertilizers, biostimulants, other beneficial microorganisms, and even most pesticides to save you time and effort. Because Tribus is highly salt and pH-tolerant, you don't have to worry about losing efficacy when mixing with strong fertilizers. Plus, Tribus is free-flowing, so it won't clog injectors, drip lines, or hydroponic systems. Ever.

WHAT IS A CFU?
A CFU, or Colony Forming Unit, is a measure of viable bacteria in each millimetre of product. The more CFU’s, the greater the effect of each application.

Impello Biosciences Tribus Original Rhizobacteria Inoculant, 500 mL
What does Impello Biosciences Tribus Original do for plant growth?
Impello Biosciences Tribus Original is a highly concentrated liquid blend of three growth-promoting rhizobacteria that maximize nutrient availability and uptake, improve root and stem growth, and increase overall growth rate and yield. In documented results, Tribus Original has shown a 15% increase in dry yield, a 16% increase in stem diameter, and a 14% increase in growth rate.
Is Impello Biosciences Tribus Original safe to use in hydroponic systems, and will the bacteria clog drip lines or injectors?
Impello Biosciences Tribus Original is fully compatible with hydroponic systems and will not clog injectors, drip lines, or other hydroponic equipment. The free-flowing liquid formula also does not cause problematic biofilm formation, making Tribus Original a worry-free addition to any hydroponic setup.
Can Impello Biosciences Tribus Original be used across all growing media and with other fertilizers or biostimulants?
Impello Biosciences Tribus Original works in all growing media, including soil, coco, and hydroponic systems, and can be tank-mixed with all types of fertilizers, biostimulants, other beneficial microorganisms, and most pesticides. Because Tribus Original is highly salt-tolerant and pH-tolerant, growers do not need to worry about losing efficacy when mixing with strong fertilizers.
Which stages of plant growth can Impello Biosciences Tribus Original be applied during?
Impello Biosciences Tribus Original can be used from seedling all the way through harvest, including vegetative and bloom stages. Tribus Original is especially useful on seedlings and cuttings to reduce the time from cut to root, and the formula also helps break down salts during the flush stage.
What bacteria strains are inside Impello Biosciences Tribus Original, and how concentrated are they?
Impello Biosciences Tribus Original contains three Bacillus species: Bacillus Subtilis at 4 billion CFU per mL, Bacillus Amyloliquefaciens at 2 billion CFU per mL, and Bacillus Pumilus at 4 billion CFU per mL. This high concentration of colony-forming units ensures strong efficacy even at very low application rates.
Is Impello Biosciences Tribus Original OMRI certified for organic growing, and does the 500 mL size qualify?
OMRI-certified formulations of Impello Biosciences Tribus Original are available, but only in one-gallon sizes and larger. The 500 mL size is an organic-based liquid formula but does not carry the OMRI certification that the larger sizes offer. Additionally, the OMRI certified Tribus blend is not currently available in California.
