POPUL8 stands out as a powerful standalone biological additive, offering robust support to existing agronomic programs by elevating the effectiveness of other inputs. Tailored to amplify plant growth, nutrient cycling, and overall soil health, POPUL8 goes beyond conventional solutions. It strategically populates and occupies the biological niche in the soil and on plant roots, preventing it from becoming a breeding ground for plant pathogens — hence the name POPUL8.

Diversity is at the core of POPUL8, boasting a microbiome featuring over 200 bacteria and fungi. Additionally, 40 carefully selected bacteria and fungi have been meticulously chosen for their unique roles and beneficial characteristics.

Optimal Application Guidelines for POPUL8

To maximize the effectiveness of POPUL8, apply 5 litres per hectare. Dilute POPUL8 at a recommended ratio of 1:100, although a higher dilution is preferable for enhanced results. It is advisable to spray or apply during periods of low UV or before anticipated rain events, as UV and extreme heat can adversely affect microbial activity. If possible, water in the solution after application; however, this is not mandatory when applying via fertigation.

Usage and Storage Recommendations

For proper storage, keep POPUL8 in a cool place away from direct sunlight. Do not mix with fungicides or other bactericides. Since this mixture contains natural products, it inherently harbours a diverse array of living micro-organisms. Take precautions to avoid inhalation of spray mist and remember to wash hands after use. It is recommended to use diluted POPUL8 within one (1) week of dilution to ensure optimal efficacy.

Stock Control & Pricing Breaks

Our webstore now indicates an approximate level of items in stock. Please note that not all warehouse locations will hold all items in stock. If you wish to pickup your items please wait until we have confirmed your order is ready to go or call us on 1300 760 642 to check if the stock is available.

Stock levels are indicated as quantity breaks. These are: 1+, 6+, 12+, 36+, 100+, 250+, 500+, 1000+, 2000+ and 3000+. For example: if we have 5 ARS Florist Scissors in stock this would display as 1+ — if there are 47 in stock it will indicate 36+. As another example: if we have 14,960 Fluted Tree Guards in stock this would indicate as 3000+. The quantity also indicates the number of items as described by the product description; so Florist Scissors are sold individually whereas the 10L Carton Tree Guard is sold in boxes of 150 – in the later case 100+ items refers to 100+ boxes of 150 (or over 15,000 Carton Tree Guards in stock).

Please note: our webstore stock levels are accurate to within the last hour; if you order an item that has since sold out, we will promptly notify you as to when your order will be fulfilled. Some items may be indicated as Special Order items or display a custom message as to when stock is due.

Pricing breaks: many items in our store display pricing breaks. The number of items indicated in pricing breaks can vary a lot between different products. Often with horticulture tools such as secatuers and loppers, the pricing breaks relate to the number of items in a box or total number of items in a carton; so if you need several secateurs, and order per box or carton, you save more as we save time packing your order. Items such as tree guards, bamboo canes and hardwood stakes often have price breaks set to fill a standard pallet size; thus savings or efficiency gains are made in the storage and transport of these items.
