 Monty's Liquid Carbon - MLC 

 

The soil is the foundation of your crop and Liquid Carbon is the foundation of the Monty’s family of products. 

MLC changes the soil aggregate by coating individual soil particles with a gel like humic substance that binds the particles together. This then helps the soil profile to improve moisture and nutrient retention.

Applications of MLC helps promote aeration, moisture retention and nutrient efficiency by improving the environment and balance within your soil profile.

MLC can be applied spring, summer or autumn and can be added to pesticides or pre-plant/ burn down herbicides tank mix.



MLC will begin feeding microbes in the soil that increase the cation exchange in the root zone.




MLC is a highly cost effective means of :

  • enhancing the aeration of your soil.
  • reducing the compaction of your soil.
  • reducing the salt build-up in your soil.
  • increasing the moisture retention of your soil.
  • stimulating bacteria growth which increases. the energy around the root mass.
  • assist with breakdown of organic matter.

Introducing Time In A Bottle: Nature developed your soils by incorporating a cycle of life, death, and decay. Over time, these layers became your rich, fertile topsoil. Today, however, many of these natural systems are out of balance resulting in a depletion of available nutrients within your soil profile and an increased dependency on chemical additives, like fertilisers.

Monty’s Liquid Carbon (MLC) can assist your soils and return them to a more balanced state. By incorporating our advanced humic technology (Humigin™)you can potentially see soils improve in as little as two weeks. We believe we have captured the essential elements from the breakdown of organic matter and placed them in every bottle of MLC.

MLC is a soil conditioner that utilizes the same production technologies that contribute to the efficiency and effectiveness of other Monty's Plant Food products. The soil conditioning qualities of our processed humic substance are second to none.

MLC is derived from 100% natural elements and is safe and non-toxic for use in all lawn and commercial / agricultural applications. Monty’s Liquid Carbon is not a fertiliser or a fertiliser replacement; it is intended to be used as a soil conditioner in conjunction with a fertiliser program.

Definitions:

Soil organic matter is decomposing plant and animal life. Bacteria, fungi, and microbes are responsible for the breakdown of these materials. MLC encourages healthy soils allowing these organisms to flourish. This process converts and releases nutrients in a useable form to the soil.

Humus results from the breakdown of organic matter and acts as a storage vessel for soil nitrogen, calcium, magnesium, and other micronutrients. Humus improves soil structure, aeration, drainage, and water holding capacity. It serves as a food source for microorganisms, acts as a plant growth stimulator, and increases soil exchange capacity.

Ground Basics for the Soil
What your farm looks like above ground will ultimately be determined by what lies beneath. ..read more>>

If you answer "yes" to any of these questions, your soil may need MLC.

  • “Do you have heavy clay soils or segments of your fields that are heavy in clay?”
  •  “Do you have sandy soils and want to increase the moisture retention potential?”
  • “Are your fields compacted from years of farming - high salt fertilizers, tillage and traffic?”
  • “Do you have muddy water runoff from your field?”
  • “Do segments of your fields have poor drainage due to compaction, and hardpans?”
  • “Are fertilizer recommendations coming back higher and higher every year?”
  • “Do you want to optimize root development of your plants by increased aeration of your soils?”
