Today, we have another installment of Houseplant Terms.
Today’s term is mycorrhizae. I have a video on mycorrhizae and how beneficial they are for your houseplant soil and houseplants.
So, what are mycorrhizae? They are microscopic fungi that naturally occur in outdoor soils. Nowadays, mycorrhizae are included in high-quality potting soils for indoor use. You can also add mycorrhizae to your potting soil, and my video demonstrates how to do that specifically.
Why should you use mycorrhizae? Mycorrhizae help plants develop healthier roots, which are crucial for healthy houseplant growth. As you may know from watching my videos, roots are the most important part of your plant, even though you can’t see them. Mycorrhizae help your roots become stronger and healthier, allowing your plants to absorb more water and nutrients than they would on their own. They have a symbiotic relationship with your plant’s roots.
