Vitamins, pro-vitamins, amino acids, sugars, bacterial strains and yeasts
Love Living Soil is the result of a precise selection of biologically active ingredients that have been specifically developed to maximize soil fertility and provide plants with optimal nutrition. Vitamins, pro-vitamins, amino acids and beneficial microorganisms form a living network that improves nutrient absorption, promotes root formation and stabilizes soil structure.
Here is an explanation of the functions of each vitamin, pro-vitamin, amino acid, sugar, bacterial strain and yeast for the soil and plants in Love Living Soil:
Vitamins
- Vitamin A : Helps with cell formation and root development in plants. It strengthens the body's defenses against diseases and supports growth.
- Vitamin B1 (thiamine) : Promotes root formation and improves plant stress tolerance, e.g. during transplanting or drought.
- Vitamin B2 (riboflavin) : Supports energy metabolism and photosynthesis, resulting in healthier and stronger plants.
- Vitamin B3 (niacin) : Stimulates growth and supports the formation of plant enzymes that play a role in metabolic processes.
- Vitamin B12 : Promotes plant growth, especially roots and leaves, and supports microbial activity in the soil.
- Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) : Protects plant cells from oxidative stress, strengthens the plant's immune system and promotes the absorption of nutrients.
- Vitamin D & D2 : Supports photosynthesis and plant growth by improving calcium uptake in the soil.
- Vitamin E : Helps plants recover from environmental damage such as drought or strong sunlight as it is a powerful antioxidant.
- Vitamin F : Strengthens cell membranes and promotes nutrient absorption, ensuring healthy roots and leaves.
- Vitamin K : Important for the formation of proteins that the plant needs for photosynthesis and nutrient utilization.
Pro-vitamins
- Folic acid : Supports cell growth and development, especially in young plants. Also promotes DNA synthesis and cell division.
- Folinic acid : Increases nutrient uptake and improves cell function in plants.
- Pantothenic acid (vitamin B5) : Promotes root development and strengthens the plant's ability to cope with stress and environmental influences.
- Niacin : Important for the energy production of plant cells. It improves stress resistance and ensures better growth.
- Riboflavin : Promotes enzyme activity, which is crucial for plant growth and nutrient uptake.
- Nicotinic acid : Stimulates metabolism and improves photosynthesis, resulting in healthier and stronger plants.
- Carotene : Acts as an antioxidant and protects the plant from damage caused by UV light and oxidative stress.
- Choline : Improves root development and supports nutrient uptake, which strengthens overall plant growth.
Amino acids
- Arginine : Supports plant growth through nitrogen transport and helps with root development and flower formation.
- Cystine : Helps strengthen plant cells and protects against oxidative stress.
- Glutamic acid : Promotes nitrogen uptake and utilization and improves overall plant growth.
- Histidine : Supports the development of seeds and flowers and protects plant cells from environmental damage.
- Isoleucine : Improves the plant’s resistance to stress, especially in drought or nutrient deficiency.
- Leucine : Promotes plant growth and cell division, resulting in larger, healthier plants.
- Lysine : Important for protein synthesis and strengthens root growth.
- Methionine : Supports root formation and promotes the uptake of sulfur and nitrogen.
- Phenylalanine : Stimulates the production of plant hormones that promote growth and flowering.
- Threonine : Supports cell formation and nutrient uptake, promotes growth and photosynthesis.
- Tryptophan : Promotes the formation of auxins, plant hormones that stimulate root and shoot growth.
- Tyrosine : Supports the formation of proteins and enzymes that are important for plant growth.
- Valine : Improves stress resistance and supports overall plant growth.
Types of sugar
- Polysaccharide Fucoidan : Strengthens the plant’s immune system and improves its resistance to diseases.
- Polysaccharide Laminarin : Promotes wound healing and strengthens the plant’s defense system against stress factors.
- Polysaccharide Mannitol : Supports the water balance of the plant and improves the absorption of minerals from the soil.
Bacterial strains
- Lactobacillus plantarum : A lactic acid bacterium that improves soil fertility and supports root growth by promoting nutrient availability. It also promotes microbial balance in the soil.
- Lactobacillus casei : Another lactic acid bacterium that breaks down organic matter in the soil, making nutrients more available to plants.
- Rhodopseudomonas palustris : A photosynthetic bacterium that supports the nitrogen cycle in soil and promotes plant growth by using sunlight for energy.
Yeasts
- Saccharomyces cerevisiae : This yeast promotes microbial activity in the soil, improves nutrient availability and stimulates root growth. It is also responsible for the degradation of organic matter, making nutrients more accessible to plants.
These ingredients work hand in hand to create a healthy, vibrant soil ecosystem that optimally nourishes plants and supports their growth naturally.
