Applying Primora Bio
One product. Five ways to put it in the water.
A practical guide to applying the mineral solution at any scale, from a raised bed to a regenerative field. The methods and the dilutions are the same everywhere. Only the volume changes.
Application methods
Four ways to apply. One product at the center.
Every method uses Primora Bio as the foundation. Scale the volume to what you grow. Each card is tagged with the growers it applies to.
Show methods for
Foliar application
Foliar Spray
When
After germination is established, continuing through the season to harvest. Apply early morning or evening, never in direct midday sun.
How to mix
½ fl oz (15 ml) per gallon of water. By area: 3 oz per ⅛ acre · 6 oz per ¼ acre · 12 oz per ½ acre · 24 oz per acre. Load into a clean sprayer and cover both upper and lower leaf surfaces until lightly coated.
Frequency
Every 7–14 days through the growing season
Irrigation system
Drip & Irrigation Line Injection
When
Throughout the growing season as part of your regular irrigation schedule. Compatible with drip tape and inline injection equipment.
How to mix
Inject at the point of entry at the irrigation rate: ½ fl oz per 5 gallons of water applied, or per 10 gallons from an RO or distilled source. Confirm compatibility with existing fertigation schedules before combining with other inputs in-line.
Frequency
Every irrigation cycle
Container & hydroponic
Hydroponic Reservoir & Container Watering
When
At each reservoir water change for hydroponic systems. For containers and potted plants, add at every watering session or replenishment.
How to mix
½ fl oz per 5 gallons of reservoir volume, or per 10 gallons if you fill with RO or distilled water. Mix thoroughly and let stand 30 minutes before circulating. Compatible with standard nutrient solutions — no known interactions.
Frequency
Each reservoir water change, or each watering session for containers
Pre-germination
Seed Soak & Germination Hydration
When
Before planting. Soak eligible seeds in treated water, then keep watering with treated irrigation water from planting through emergence.
How to mix
Primora Bio only — no Nourish or Char. ½ fl oz per gallon for the soak. Highly suitable — seeds with hard coats that benefit from hydration: beans, peas, corn, cucumbers, squash, zucchini, pumpkins. Soak 8–24 hours, or wrap in a moist paper towel for 12–24 hours. Plant when the seed is swollen or just beginning to crack. Moderately suitable — short soak of 6–12 hours, avoiding visible root emergence, handling gently: sunflowers, beets, chard, okra. Not recommended — too fragile: lettuce, carrots, basil, arugula and most herbs. Plant these dry and shallow, and keep them consistently moist. Planting depth 2–3× seed diameter.
Frequency
Soak once pre-planting; germination hydration 1–2 light waterings daily through emergence

| Application method | Dilution rate | Coverage per mix | Frequency | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Primora Bio — Foliar Spray | 0.5 oz (15 ml) / gal | 3 oz per ⅛ acre · 6 oz per ¼ acre · 12 oz per ½ acre · 24 oz per acre | Every 7–14 days through the season | Apply to upper and lower leaf surfaces until lightly coated. Not in direct midday sun. Season cost, single quart: ~$67.49 per ⅛ acre / ~$539.91 per acre . Volume jug (10 qt) reduces this to ~$45.56 per ⅛ acre / ~$364.49 per acre . |
| Primora Bio — Drip / Irrigation Injection | 0.5 oz (15 ml) / 5 gal | Per 5 gal of water applied (10 gal if RO or distilled) | Every irrigation cycle | Compatible with drip tape and inline injectors. Inject at the supply inlet. |
| Primora Bio — Hydroponic & Containers | 0.5 oz (15 ml) / 5 gal | Per 5 gal of reservoir volume (10 gal if RO or distilled) | Each reservoir change · each watering session | Mix well before circulating. No known interactions with standard hydroponic nutrient solutions. |
| Primora Bio — Seed Soak | 0.5 oz (15 ml) / gal | Per bowl or batch of seeds | Once, before planting | Primora Bio only — no Nourish or Char. Hard-coated seed 8–24 hrs, or 12–24 hrs wrapped in a moist paper towel; plant when swollen or just cracking. Delicate seed is not soaked at all — see suitability by type above. |
| Primora Bio — Germination Hydration | 0.5 oz (15 ml) / 5 gal | As needed — keep surface lightly moist, not saturated | 1–2 light waterings per day through emergence | Consistency matters more than volume. Small seeds (top ~¼ inch): 1–2 light passes per day. Large seeds: every 1–2 days, rely on deeper moisture. |
| Primora Nourish — Soil Spray | 0.25–0.75 oz / 1,000 sq ft · 1 pt–1 qt / acre | Lawn & garden per 1,000 sq ft · agriculture per acre · trees 0.5–1 oz per inch DBH | Initial soil drench + 2–4 more times per season | Liquid fish hydrolysate. First application alongside Char at the start of the season, then independently through the season. |
| Primora Char — Soil Drench | 0.5–4 oz per plant (garden) · 1–2 gal / acre | Garden per plant · agriculture per acre | Once — pre-season soil drench only | 5-micron activated wood biochar with humate. Particle size allows liquid formulation and single-pass combination. Primora Char - 32 fluid ounces = $29.99. |
Good to know
Storage, compatibility & timing.
Storage
Indefinite shelf life
Store sealed at room temperature. No refrigeration. It is a mineral solution, so it does not degrade, expire, or lose potency over time.
Compatibility
Works with your existing setup
Compatible with drip, sprinkler, pivot, flood and hydroponic systems. Tank-mixes with most fertilizers, amendments and biological inputs. The exception is high-pH sprayed inputs — lime sulfur, Bordeaux mixture, hydrated lime, potassium silicate — which should be applied in a separate pass. No special equipment required.
Seasonal timing
Start early, taper naturally
Begin foliar applications at the start of the growing season and continue weekly. For perennials, soil irrigation once, then foliar only. Soil biology improves over time, so costs and frequency decline.
Safety
Zero synthetic chemicals
99% purified water, 1% mineral salts — every element in sulfate form, dissolved and carrying a charge. Zero toxic heavy metals, independently verified. Safe around children, pets and livestock. Safe for organic farming.
Optional enhancement
Go deeper with the full REVIVE stack.
Primora Bio is the foundation of every protocol. Two complementary inputs can be combined with it in a single sprayer pass at the start of the season, then continued independently.
Liquid nutrient complex
Primora Nourish
A liquid fish hydrolysate delivering minerals, micronutrients, amino acids and fats. Applied first in the pre-season soil drench alongside Primora Bio and Char, then independently 2–4 more times through the season.
Activated liquid biochar
Primora Char
A 5-micron activated wood biochar combined with humate in liquid form. That particle size is what allows all three inputs to be combined in one sprayer and applied in a single pass. Pre-season only.
Neither is required. Primora Bio alone is a complete protocol. A field trial starting in effectively dead soil produced results using only an initial soil drench and weekly foliar spray, with a single mid-season application. Nourish and Char are for growers accelerating recovery in depleted ground.
