Give Your Plants the Best Possible Start with NutriStar Genesis Transplant Mix
Transplanting doesn’t have to mean stress, setbacks, or slow growth. NutriStar Genesis Transplant Mix is engineered to help plants establish faster, grow stronger roots, and thrive in their new environment from day one.
This powerful blend combines beneficial bacteria, mycorrhizal fungi, and natural root hormones to jump-start root development and dramatically reduce transplant shock. Genesis improves nutrient uptake, boosts soil biology, and helps plants recover quicker—so you see healthier growth sooner.
Whether you’re planting trees, shrubs, flowers, or vegetables, Genesis works underground where it matters most. It feeds soil microbes, improves nutrient availability, and encourages vigorous root systems that support long-term plant success.
