N-100 Usage Guide | Sweet Potatoes, Potatoes, Taro
Why "N-100" for potatoes?
The most important factors for potatoes growing in soil are a "soil environment where microorganisms can live" and a "nutritional balance.
Expected Benefits
- Disease prevention:Create soil that is resistant to prevalent diseases, such as "Saprophytic Disease" and "Mottled Disease."
- Crop damage control:It restores soil fertility and prevents poor growth due to continuous cropping.
- Cost performance:The microorganisms settle and multiply, resulting in long-lasting effects and cost-effectiveness.

By utilizing N-100, the microbial environment of the soil is improved, supporting strong rice cultivation that does not rely on chemical fertilizers or herbicides.
Estimated annual usage: "about 10 liters" per 1 tan
Cultivation Points
- No chemical fertilizers are used:N-100 and organic compost create a nutrient cycle.
- Herbicide free:Manage with strong seedlings and soil conditions.
- Year-round use:It is used consistently from soil preparation to post-harvest care.

Soil preparation to maximize sugar content and color and gloss
In fruit tree cultivation, N-100 strengthens "rooting" and maximizes nutrient absorption from the soil. This results in bright foliage color, glossy fruit, and strong trees that can withstand disasters.
Advantages of Introduction
- Quality improvement:It grows sweet, delicious, high-quality fruit.
- Tree strengthening:The soil has a clumped structure that allows for deeper rooting, prolonging the life of the tree and improving disaster resistance.
Usage schedule and dilution method
1. at the time of sapling/planting (juvenile stage)
- Seedlings before planting:Once a week,200 times diluted solutionSpraying the
- At planting time:At planting time200 times diluted solutionSpray generously with
- Until fruiting (1-2 years):Once or twice a month during spring through fall,100 times diluted solutionSpraying the
2. mature trees (harvest season)
- Germination to fertilization period (end of March to beginning of June):
Every 10 days to every 2 weeks,100 times diluted solutionis sprayed over the entire area.
*Speed sprayers (SS) and other equipment are available.
- After harvest (thank you fertilizer):
A similar application every 10 days to 2 weeks for about 2 months after harvest will ensure vigor for the next year.

N-100 User's Guide | Bricklins
Nematode control and quality improvement
Nematode damage is a problem in brick cultivation, and the use of N-100 creates an environment where nematodes cannot live easily by making the soil into a densely packed structure. As a result, beautiful, white-skinned bricks grow.
Expected Benefits
- Nematode prevention:The cluster structure suppresses nematode damage.
- Quality improvement:We grow beautiful, safe and secure lotus root in nutrient-balanced soil.
Method of use (pour-in fertilizer application)
In brick cultivation, the lotus field is surrounded by water.Undiluted.is to be spread as it is.
1. first fertilizer (around March, before planting)
Sprinkle N-100 undiluted solution around the lotus field (with some water).
Point:Sprinkling more near the water supply inlet will make it easier to spread throughout the area by the water flow.
2. fertilizer (June to early July, growing season)
As with the original fertilizer, spread the undiluted solution from the perimeter of the lotus field.

Guide to Using N-100 | Making Animal Manure
N-100 Introduction and Cultivation Guide
Target: Animal manure (cow, pig, chicken, and horse manure)
Super-shortened production of odorless, fully matured compost
The use of N-100 (a combination of anaerobic and aerobic bacteria) accelerates fermentation and creates high-quality compost faster than normal.
Advantages of Introduction
- Fully ripe in a short period of time:In about 3 to 4 months, a silky and fluffy mature compost is completed.
- Reduction of bad odors:As fermentation proceeds, the characteristic odor is greatly reduced.
- Killing of pathogens and weeds:Fermentation heat (60-70°C) treats pathogens and weed seeds.
- Weight loss effects:At full ripeness, the quantity is about half or less, making it easier to handle.
Production Flow
1. mixing and spraying
Against raw livestock manure,N-100 diluted 50-100 timesto be sprinkled over the entire area. The guideline for moisture is about 601 tp3 t.
2. turnaround
About once a monthCut back while sprinkling N-100 (diluted solution).
3. completion
Depending on the season, it takes 3-4 months to become a silky, mature compost.

N-100 Usage Guide | Leafy vegetables (green onion, spinach, etc.)
N-100 Introduction and Cultivation Guide
Target: Leafy vegetables (leeks, spinach, komatsuna, lettuce, etc.)
Improve color and taste
For leaf-eating vegetables (leafy greens), the most important factors are "leaf thickness" and "bright color and gloss." N-100 facilitates nitrogen circulation and grows sweet and tasty vegetables with no bitterness.
Expected Benefits
- Rooting promotion:The plant will be significantly more active (rooting) at the time of planting.
- Quality improvement:The leaf flesh becomes thicker, providing a crisp texture and dark green color.
- Disease prevention:It produces plants that are resistant to diseases specific to leafy vegetables, such as soft rot and downy mildew.
Usage Schedule and Procedures
1. soil preparation (before sowing and planting)
- Soil application:In the field preparation stage,100 times diluted solutionis sprayed over the entire soil and mixed in.
A good microbiological environment will change the start of initial growth.
2. when planting seedlings (important: green onion seedlings, etc.)
This is especially effective for vegetables planted from seedlings, such as leeks and lettuce.
- Leave-on treatment:Seedlings before planting,50 times diluted solutionovernight (or for several hours) before planting.
*The direct action of N-100 on the roots reduces transplant stress and promotes strong rooting.
3. during growing period (fertilizer application)
- Regular spraying:Once every 1 to 2 weeks between the appearance of the true leaves and harvest,100 times diluted solutionis applied as a foliar spray (or irrigated at the base of the plant).
It aids in photosynthesis and produces colorful, glossy leaves.
