GENERAL FEATURES
De-Thatcher is a unique blend of carbon based raw materials,
slow release nitrogen from a carbon/nitrogen source. Because
thatch is a complex organic molecule containing lignin and
cellulose tough fibres, it requires microbial activity to
breakdown and become a food source for plants. The specific
microbes contained in De-Thatcher, when applied to the soil
produce significant quantities of protease and cellulose that
will digest protein contained in thatch and other organic
compounds in the soil.
