5 Living Components. One Complete Soil Army.
Every bottle contains four types of living organisms plus a natural hormone system that tells your plants to grow. Click each one to learn what it does.
Live Bacteria
Non-Synthetic Growth Support
The engine of your soil. Bacteria pull nitrogen straight from the air and deliver it to your roots. They break down organic matter into food your plant can actually absorb. They crowd out the bad bacteria that cause rot and disease. In healthy forest soil there are billions per teaspoon. Your potting mix has almost none.

The 15 Hardest Working Organisms
Every species below was identified by DNA sequencing and counted in cells per gram. These are not estimates. These are living residents of your soil after one application.
Nitrososphaera — the top species at 3.81 billion cells/g — is an ammonia oxidizer. It converts nitrogen in your soil into a form plants can actually eat. Nitrospira at position 6 does the next step in that chain. Devosia and Sphingomonas promote root growth and suppress disease. Together, these top 15 species alone form a complete nutrient cycling system that most gardeners have never had access to before.

What This Science Does for Your Life
The Numbers Above Change Real Things
Science is only worth something if it makes your life better. Here is what 1,227 microbial species actually means for the person standing in their yard on a Saturday morning.
🌳
Your Fruit Trees Finally Set Fruit
You planted that tree three years ago. Maybe four. It grows. It flowers sometimes. But the fruit either never comes or falls before it is ready. The gibberellin-producing species in PSB tell that tree to complete what it started. The ABA producers tell it to hold the fruit until it is ripe. The auxin producers give it the root depth to support the weight. You go from ornamental to harvest.
🌿
Your Lawn Stays Green Through Summer
Every August in South Texas your grass turns brown. You water more. You spend more. It still burns. The ACC deaminase species in PSB break down the ethylene that causes heat-stress dormancy. The exopolysaccharide producers keep moisture at the root zone. The nitrogen releasers keep feeding the roots. Your grass closes its stomata efficiently and powers through the heat your neighbors' lawns cannot handle.
🌸
Your Flowers Look the Way They Were Meant to Look
Pale blooms. Small flowers. Buds that form and then drop. These are not signs of a bad gardener. They are signs of soil that cannot deliver the iron, phosphorus, and cytokinin that flowers need. The siderophore producers in PSB go get the iron. The phosphorus solubilizers unlock what was always there. The cytokinin producers tell cells to multiply and differentiate. Your gardenias, your roses, your bougainvillea — they finally look like the pictures on the tag.
🏡
Your Home Looks Like You Have It Together
There is something real that happens when your yard looks alive. Neighbors stop and comment. People slow down when they drive by. Your kids and grandkids actually want to play outside. You feel pride about a space you used to feel frustrated by. That is not a small thing. The science in this report is the reason it happens. A billion living organisms working in your soil so the outside of your home reflects the care you put into the inside of it.
🧒
Safe for Kids, Pets, and the People You Love
Zero synthetic chemicals. Zero heavy metal contamination — tested and confirmed. Made from crab meal, kelp, and American-grown inputs on our own farm in Hargill, Texas. The bactericide and fungicide protection in PSB is biological. It works by outcompeting harmful organisms, not by poisoning the environment your children and animals live in. You can apply it and not worry about keeping anyone off the lawn.
📈
Your Soil Gets Better Every Year
Chemical fertilizers are a transaction. You pay. You get a green flush. The chemicals leach away. You start over next season. PSB builds a permanent colony. The carbon fixation species add organic matter. The nitrogen releasers build long-term fertility. The fungal networks weave through your soil and stay. After two years of PSB applications, your soil biology score goes up. The plants that struggled become the plants your neighbors ask about.

Hormone Production · Growth Promoters
Your Soil Produces Plant Growth Hormones
Plants make their own growth hormones. But the microbes in healthy soil produce the same compounds and deliver them directly to the root zone. This is the difference between a plant that grows and a plant that thrives.
Auxin
IAA · INDOLE-3-ACETIC ACID
27%
Drives
Cell Division
Stem Elongation
27% of PSB species produce auxin. Auxin is the primary hormone that tells a plant to grow longer roots and stronger stems. More roots means more water. More water means more survival. More survival means you stop losing plants you paid for.
Abscisic Acid
ABA · STRESS RESPONSE HORMONE
67%
Drives
Growth Regulation
Plant Resistance
Increased Yields
The highest percentage of any hormone in this report at 67%. ABA is what tells a plant when to close its stomata to conserve water, when to harden against cold, and when to direct energy into yield. PSB-treated plants set more fruit and withstand more weather than untreated plants. This is why.
Gibberellin
GA · GERMINATION HORMONE
30%
Drives
Stem Elongation
Germination
Flowering
30% of species produce gibberellins. If you have ever planted seeds that just sat there refusing to germinate, or flowers that formed buds but never bloomed, or fruit trees that flowered but dropped their fruit — gibberellin deficiency in the soil was likely the reason. PSB addresses all three.
Cytokinin Production (CK)
26%
Cytokinin controls cell proliferation and cell differentiation. In plain terms, it tells growing tissue what it should become — leaf, root, or fruit. Plants with steady cytokinin supply from soil microbes maintain vigorous growth without the uneven, spindly growth patterns seen in nutrient-poor soil.
🌸 Flowers look fuller. Fruit sets more evenly. New growth emerges dark green instead of pale yellow.
Siderophore Production
18%
Siderophores are iron-scavenging molecules produced by bacteria. They pull iron out of surrounding soil particles and carry it directly to plant roots. Iron deficiency turns leaves yellow between the veins — a condition called chlorosis that affects tens of thousands of Texas gardens every year, especially in alkaline soils.
🍋 Yellow leaves on your citrus or gardenias are usually iron deficiency. PSB species go get the iron your plants cannot reach on their own.
Plant Health Improvement · Biocontrol
Your Plants Have a Built-In Defense System
These percentages represent the share of species in PSB that actively fight the organisms trying to kill your plants. This protection runs 24 hours a day without any additional sprays or treatments.
Bactericide Agents
71%
Bacteria-Fighting Species
71 out of every 100 microbial species in PSB are capable of preventing harmful bacteria from taking hold in your soil. That includes pathogens that cause crown gall, fire blight, and bacterial leaf spot. You stop problems before you ever see them.
Fungicide Agents
65%
Fungus-Fighting Species
65% of species actively fight harmful fungi. Root rot, powdery mildew, pythium, and fusarium are the silent killers that take out trees and gardens before gardeners even know the problem has started. PSB puts a natural army in the ground first.
Insecticide Agents
24%
Insect-Suppressing Species
Includes species that naturally suppress soil-dwelling insects that attack roots. When the soil ecosystem is balanced, insects cannot get the foothold they need to cause the kind of damage that kills plants over a single season.
Nematicide Agents
17%
Nematode-Suppressing Species
Root-knot nematodes destroy citrus, tomatoes, and ornamentals across South Texas every year. Many gardeners never figure out why their plants look sick. PSB puts nematode-suppressors in the root zone where they are needed most.

🪨 What Biochar Does to CEC
Biochar is burned organic material with a honeycomb structure at the microscopic level. Those tiny chambers act like a hotel for nutrients and microbes. They grab onto calcium, potassium, magnesium, and the other minerals your plants feed on — then release them slowly into the root zone. That is why Super Soil scores a 23.8 when most bag soils test between 5 and 10. The biochar is doing that.
💧 How It Helps Water Holding
The same honeycomb structure that holds nutrients also holds water. Biochar absorbs moisture like a sponge and releases it slowly as roots pull it away. This is why Super Soil hits a 52% water holding capacity without any surfactants or synthetic wetting agents. No chemicals. No tricks. Just structure that was built to hold water the same way healthy forest soil does.
A CEC of 23.8 puts Super Soil in the same class as rich loam farmland that has been managed for decades. Your fruit trees get a soil that remembers nutrients. Your houseplants stop starving between feedings. Your lawn stops burning out in the heat.

Stress Adaptation · Environmental Resilience
Your Plants Can Take a Hit and Keep Going
South Texas summers hit 110 degrees. Droughts last months. Soils run alkaline. PSB species evolved in these conditions and they protect your plants through all of them.
☀️
ACC Deaminase (ACC-d)
19%
Drives
Drought Protect.
Salinity Protect.
Pathogen Protect.
ACC deaminase breaks down ethylene, the stress hormone that triggers early leaf drop and fruit abort in hot, dry conditions. 19% of species in PSB produce it. Plants in drought-stressed soil treated with PSB hold their leaves and fruit longer than untreated plants.
🌊
Exopolysaccharide Production
15%
Drives
Nutrient Trap
Salinity Protect.
Drought Protect.
Exopolysaccharides form a biofilm around roots that traps nutrients and moisture. In South Texas caliche soil that drains instantly, this biofilm is the difference between a plant that survives a dry week and one that wilts and dies.
🧂
Salt Tolerance
18%
Drives
Salinity Protect.
Root Growth
18% of species help plants tolerate high salt conditions. Rio Grande Valley soils and water sources carry significant salt loads. Salt stress stunts roots, yellows leaves, and burns leaf tips. PSB species actively counteract this and keep roots growing in high-salt conditions.
⚗️
Heavy Metal Resistance
16%
Drives
Bioremediation
Detoxification
16% of species detoxify heavy metals and protect plants from heavy metal stress. In soils with legacy pesticide or irrigation water issues, this protection keeps root systems healthy and prevents heavy metal uptake into fruit and vegetables.
