FAQ About Indoor Plant Root Zone Microbiology

Are there specific bacterial strains that are beneficial for indoor plants?

Yes, certain bacterial strains are known to be beneficial for indoor plants. For example, strains of Bacillus and Pseudomonas are commonly used as soil inoculants because they impede the growth of pathogenic microbes, boost nutrient uptake, and promote plant growth.

These bacterial strains can improve soil health through enhanced nitrogen fixation, phosphorus solubilization, and production of growth-promoting substances.
