BIOHUMUS (VERMICOMPOST)
PROCESSED ORGANIC FERTILISER 100% NATURAL PRODUCT
100% natural product
Biohumus (known as vermicompost or worm compost) is made by Californian red works that process organic waste: manure, various vegetables, leaves, etc. Visually, biohumus reminds of black earth, however, it does not have any smell.
It can be used as a basis or additional fertiliser for any plant cultures as well as for improving soil. It contains necessary micro- and macro-elements, ferments, vitamins, humic substances and hormones for plant growth and development.
BENEFITS:
QUALITY PARAMETERS:
regenerates, enriches soil and improves its structure
improves aeration and internal draining of heavy clay soils
improves ability of sandy soil to sustain water
rich in humus substances, being favourable environment for necessary microbes
variety of micro- and macro-elements for plants in readily available forms
stimulates growth of plants and helps them to overcome diseases
decreases annual expenses for the garden and is environmentally friendly
increases germination power by 11-24% as compared to germs without using humus
increases productivity by 15-25% as compared to without using humus
the crops are available two weeks earlier as compared to without using humus.

APPLICATION:
Biohumus can be used both as a dry substance and as a prepared water-based mixture.
When mixing the vermicompost with soil in proportion 1:3, soil structure improves and its density decreases.
ORGANIC SUBSTANCES IN BIOHUMUS ARE BIOLOGICALLY ACTIVE. FOR THE BEST RESULT, THE RECOMMENDED DOSE MUST BE FOLLOWED!
Use of biohumus and its products for growing and fertilising various plants, vegetables, trees, bushes, corn, etc. decreases or even eliminates the need in use of mineral fertilisers as plants develop immunity against diseases, moreover, biologically pure and valuable products are obtained as a result.
Additionally, natural resources that have been destroyed for years, by using artificial minerals and poisons in the process of agricultural industrialisation, are regenerated this way.
FEEDING DURING THE VEGETATION PERIOD
Once a month, sprinkle biohumus around the plant (1L biohumus per 1 m2 or 100-150 ml around each root), mix with soil and water after. For berries and fruit trees once a month sprinkle 1L per 1m2 .
USE OF BIOHUMUS
*In accordance with the recommendations of the Latvian Vermicompost Manufacturers Association
