Installation & Maintenance

Established Trees

MitoGrow Aqua 3-IA was developed for arborists to install, reverse declining in, and maintain trees effectively, affordably, and easily by increasing new root growth and helping trees absorb more water and nutrients.

In turn, trees are more resistant to environmental stressors such as drought, disease, and invasive insects.

AQUA 3-IA CAN BE USED IN ALL STAGES OF A TREE’S LIFE AND CAN BE APPLIED IN MULTIPLE WAYS, INCLUDING:

Diluting in water and applying as a drench to the root zone

Spreading powder on damp soil in the root zone and lightly watering the soil

Blending with liquid fertilizer and injecting into the root zone

Applying via a fertigation system and mixing with other desired agricultural products

While Aqua 3-IA is not a fertilizer, it can easily be added to any plant care program with minimal changes.

Using a proactive approach to tree care, treating your trees and plants with MitoGrow products can provide the following benefits:

MOST PLANT SPECIES HAVE AN INCREASE IN ROOT MASS UP TO 30% AND UP TO 50% IN PLANTS AND TREES

IN DROUGHT TOLERANCE TESTING,

MORTALITY RATES DECREASED UP TO 70%

INCREASED AMOUNTS OF NUTRIENT ABSORPTION:

5X MORE CALCIUM
4X MORE MAGNESIUM
1.2X MORE NITROGEN
1.11X MORE PHOSPHORUS
6X MORE POTASSIUM

A TWO-YEAR STUDY ON 15-YEAR-OLD OAK TREES SHOWED THAT THE TREES TREATED WITH MITOGROW AND FERTILIZER HAD

A DIAMETER INCREASE OF 52% OVER TREES RECEIVING ONLY FERTILIZER AND AN INCREASE OF 128% OVER TREES IN THE CONTROL GROUP

EASY APPLICATION

Studies have shown the effectiveness of Aqua 3-IA on varioius types of trees.

Aqua 3-IA Studies

Aqua 3-IA Holden Research & Consulting Study

SUMMARY: Olive, weeping lantana, purple showers, and starcluster crops were treated with Aqua 3-IA over the course of 45 days. For each plant the whole wet weight and dry weight showed significant growth when treated with Aqua 3-IA.

RESULTS:

Purple showers plant after one month

Testing of Open Grown Tree Growth (Nuttall Oaks) with Aqua 3-IA on Louisiana Tech Campus — Fall 2018

SUMMARY: “In conclusion, there is evidence that across two years post treatments, these Nuttall oaks are showing response to the Aqua 3-IA product the most. While there are few traits that showed statistical significance, nearly all traits had the same biological trends across treatments and across the two sampling periods. The major hindrance to this study was the study size for which we were unable to remedy due to the site requirements to conduct the study. Still the overall trend is that the MitoGrow Aqua 3-IA product is producing an acceleration of growth in trees of an urban/suburban environment that are under great stress and is even accelerating the growth of the foliage.”

Other Before & After Pictures

These holly trees were treated and photographed over a two-week period.

The Chinese Elm on the right was treated with Aqua 3-IA while the center elm received some benefits from the treatment; the elm on the left received none. The photograph was taken one month after treatment.

This live oak tree was treated and photographed nine months later.

This ficus tree was treated and photographed three months later.

This live oak tree was treated and photographed seven and a half months later.

These oak trees were treated and photographed seven months later.
