Rooted in Soil Health Science. Curiosity. Grown by Community.
Welcome to your go-to space for exploring everything beneath the surface. The Soil Health Hub is where curious growers, nature-lovers, and GROZOME fans come to learn, share, and grow together.
Whether you're just beginning your journey or knee-deep in compost, this page is dedicated to help the joyful gardener get educated, get inspired, and get connected.
Let’s Dig a Little Deeper
Discover how GROZOME’s living biology creates better soil health.
Healthy soil isn’t just dirt — it’s an underground ecosystem full of life. At GROZOME, we’re on a mission to help home gardeners restore that invisible world, one handful at a time.
Soil Structure is Key
Why Soil Structure Comes First
Is your soil compacted, soggy, or lifeless?
Poor soil structure creates anaerobic (low-oxygen) zones that suffocate roots and kill beneficial microbes.
Over time, this leads to:
Root rot and fungal outbreaks
Compacted containers
Constant watering needs
Poor nutrient absorption
A living soil must drain well and hold structure to support healthy microbe and root growth. If your soil is compacted, this too will need to be addressed to gain the full benefits of GROZOME.
GROZOME helps improve soil structure naturally by:
Users of biologically complete microbial extracts report that their plants stay happier longer -compared to using traditional synthetic chemical inputs- reducing the need for re-potting.
Want to know where your soil stands today and/or how to improve it?
Adding micronized bamboo biochar (92% carbon and highly porous - providing long term housing for microbes, nutrients and moisture- staying in soil for thousands of years )
Introducing microbial composters that break down organic material (Thermobispora, Sphaerobacter, Parageobacillus )
Delivering essential minerals that feed these microbes and rebuild aggregation
What is the Soil Food Web
The Soil Food Web is nature’s original nutrient delivery system — a balanced community of fungi, bacteria, protozoa, nematodes, and micro-fauna that work together to:
Break down organic matter
Fix nitrogen
Control pests
Build soil fertility and structure
Most soils today are missing critical components due to synthetic chemical use, over-tilling, or urban development.
GROZOME helps rebuild the entire Soil Food Web:
Includes all 5 major microbial groups
Contains 3,900+ verified genera for maximum biodiversity
Supports beneficial fungi (not pathogens)
Encourages predatory nematodes to balance microbe populations
A functioning soil food web reduces your need for fertilizers, pesticides, and other inputs.
Biologically Complete Compost
What Does Biologically Complete Mean?
A biologically complete compost has a balanced ratio of fungi to bacteria (generally close to 1:1)— and contains all the essential micro-life forms at the appropriate minimum populations, including:
Protozoa
Amoebae
Nematodes (bacterial, fungal and predatory feeders)
This is the gold standard in soil biology — and GROZOME is proud to meet and exceed it.
Matching Microbes to Plant Health
Let’s break down what GROZOME’s biology is doing underground — and how that benefits your plants:
Function
Microbial Genera
Nutrient Cycling
Paenibacillus, Bradyrhizobium, Mesorhizobium, Rhizobium — nitrogen fixation
Disease Suppression
Streptomyces, Bacillus, Pseudomonas, Micromonospora — antibiotic compound producers
Organic Decomposition
Streptomyces, Bacillus, Pseudomonas, Micromonospora — antibiotic compound producers
Plant Growth Promotion
Burkholderia, Bacillus, Sphingomonas — produce auxins and increase root growth
Bioremediation
Mycolicibacterium, Cupriavidus — detoxify soils and reduce contaminants
The Issue with Synthetic Chemicals
Most soils today are missing critical components due to synthetic chemical use, over-tilling, or urban development.
Decades of synthetic chemical fertilizers and pesticides have disrupted soil ecosystems — with real consequences:
Fertilizers feed plants, not soil — causing microbial collapse
Over time, synthetic phosphorus lock outs nutrients and kills fungi
Pesticides and fungicides destroy beneficial life alongside pests
Chemical systems create dependency, not resilience
GROZOME offers an alternative:
Grown from biodiverse living systems, not made in labs
Restores fertility naturally
Builds a resilient soil biome over time
Reduces your need for fertilizers, pest control, and guesswork
