Strengthen your plants from the roots up with BAC Funky Fungi. This powerful blend of mycorrhizae expands the root system, improves nutrient absorption (especially phosphorus), and protects against stress, leading to a healthier, more resilient, and productive plant.
BAC Funky Fungi is a powerful blend of four types of mycorrhizae, which are beneficial fungi that form a symbiotic relationship with your plant's root system. In nature, these fungi are essential for a plant's survival, as they create a vast network of threads in the soil that act as a "second root system". This network allows your plants to reach and absorb water and minerals from soil pores that are normally inaccessible to roots. By dramatically increasing the surface area of the root system, Funky Fungi boosts the absorption of vital nutrients like phosphorus, potassium, and trace elements, leading to a healthier, stronger plant.
Key Benefits of using Funky Fungi
- Expands Root System: The mycorrhizae create a tight-knit network of fine fungal threads that effectively enlarge the root system, improving the plant's ability to absorb water and minerals.
- Boosts Nutrient Uptake: Enhances the absorption of crucial nutrients such as phosphorus and potassium, leading to more vigorous growth and a better final yield.
- Protects Against Stress: A strong, healthy root system makes plants more resilient to environmental stress and disease.
- Stimulates Soil Life: The fungi enrich the growing medium by creating a perfect symbiotic environment for other beneficial microbes.
- 100% Organic: A natural and non-hazardous product that is environmentally friendly and perfect for organic cultivation.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is mycorrhizae?
Mycorrhizae (from the Greek for "fungus root") are beneficial fungi that form a symbiotic relationship with a plant's roots. They extend the root system's reach, helping the plant to absorb water and nutrients more efficiently, while the plant provides the fungi with carbohydrates.Can I use this product in a hydroponic system?
While Funky Fungi is a versatile product, it is primarily designed for use in soil or coco coir where it can establish a living relationship with the plant roots. For pure hydroponic systems without a substrate, a mineral-based nutrient like BAC Hydro Grow A & B is recommended.How often should I apply Funky Fungi?
This product is typically a one-time application. The fungi will colonise the roots and remain active for the life of the plant, so it's most effective when applied at the time of planting or transplanting.Can I use this with other nutrients and additives?
Yes, BAC Funky Fungi is designed to work in harmony with other fertilisers and stimulators, especially those from the BAC range, as it enhances the uptake of all nutrients, including phosphorus and potassium.SKU: 1543Free delivery on orders over £60*
