Role of Mycorrhizae in Indoor Plant Growth

FAQ About Role of Mycorrhizae in Indoor Plant Growth

Can I harm mycorrhizae by using chemical fertilizers on my indoor plants?

Excessive use of chemical fertilizers, particularly those high in phosphorus, can harm mycorrhizal fungi. Over-fertilization can lead to an abundance of nutrients that diminish the need for a symbiotic relationship, reducing mycorrhizal colonization. To maintain healthy mycorrhizae, it's best to use fertilizers judiciously and consider organic options when possible.
