Quantum Growth
Professional Blend Liquid
Sludge Away
Professional Blend Dry

Quantum Growth contains a consortium of more than 30 strains of beneficial bacteria and organic humates that provide key traits for turf growth enhancement. Quantum Growth contains bacteria that both fix nitrogen form the air (thus fertilizing turf naturally) and bacteria that help cycle higher forms of nitrogen, such as ammonia and urea, into nitrates-the principal form of nitrogen utilized by turf. This makes fertilizer cycle to a useable form much quicker and allows for reduction or elimination of nitrogen inputs that would otherwise volatize into the air or leach into our water systems. Quantum Growth also contains microbes that solubilize phosphates, making them more accessible to turf and allowing for reductions in phosphate use and runoff. The bacteria also incorporate nutrients into their cell bodies as they move and live in turf and plants, essentially acting as a living transportation system. The use of beneficial bacteria makes fertilizer and nutrient values much higher and results in input and cost reductions and is much better for the environment. Quantum Growth also contains humates, high quality organic matter that essentially act as a sponge for nutrients, binding over 50 different elements from the periodic table. These nutrients (including nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, calcium, etc.) are retained and slowly released back into the soil instead of washing through. The combination of beneficial bacteria and organic humates in Quantum Growth combine to help users greatly reduce fertilizer inputs and costs. The photosynthetic bacteria in Quantum Growth produce water as a byproduct of multiple biochemical reactions including photosynthesis and nitrification. As a result, these bacteria provide water for the plant lowering irrigation requirements.

Ecological Laboratories manufactures pond clean up products that are completely safe to people, fish, and pets. These products are the only ones in the market that denitrify your ponds.

• Keeps ponds clean and clear
• Reduces ammonia nitrogen levels
• Seeds and maintains biological filters
• Remains effective over a wide range of pH
• Reduces build up of bird droppings,
• fish feed and dead leaves
• Significantly reduces noxious odors
• Improves dissolved oxygen levels
• Dissolves away organic sediment

Sludge Away is formulated specifically for the removal of organic bottom solids that are slow to degrade. Works faster at warm water temperatures , however, Sludge Away is effective at any temperature all year long. Recommended for use with all MicrobeLift bacteria products. Provides rapid and natural sludge and muck removal. Sludge Away works 80% faster than competitive products. Binds phosphates, helps improve pond clarity using all natural ingredients. Disperses quickly.

This special dry blend should not be confused with the common powders found in today's marketplace! MICROBE-LIFT/PBD packets contain cellulase enzymes, hyper cellulase producing bacteria and a cold weather bacteria (psychrophile) to accelerate the breakdown of leaves, small twigs, sediment and other accumulated dead organic waste. MICROBE-LIFT/PBD can be used as a stand-alone product, combined with our Liquid MICROBE-LIFT/PBL in the spring, or used in winter as well.
