Living Soils Fertilizer - Barley - Malted barley powder for substrate

Malted barley powder is barley that has been sprouted and then dried and made into powder. The 2-row malted barley we use has a high diastatic power; has an organic certificate and is sourced from the UK.

Malted barley is chock full of beneficial enzymes like phosphatase, chitinase, urase, protease and amylase. These enzymes act as catalysts in your soil, helping microbes break down into nutrients that your plant can use.

One major benefit of using malted barley powder is that it allows plants to flower 15% to 20% faster. Also, much less support is needed for the flowers due to the increased tensile strength of the plant.


Advantages of using malted barley powder

  • Growers reported 20% faster flowering
  • Contains naturally occurring growth regulatory hormones and defense triggering hormones

How to use it

Add it on top of the soil and wet well with water after application. This product must be thoroughly mixed in the upper centimeter of the substrate, otherwise it will form a hard crust.


Suggested dosage

Apply 1 tablespoon per 4 liters of substrate every week during flowering. It is especially useful when mixed with Bloom2 or Bloom AUTO to maximize flower development and help prevent the substrate from forming a hard crust.
