Mode of Action of NovoTec888
NovoTec888’s beneficial microbes activate once added to your irrigation or nutrient water. They colonize the root zone, releasing essential nutrients, strengthening roots, and accelerating plant growth. Explore each section below to see how these powerful Bacillus strains enhance plant performance naturally.
Builds a Strong Root Shield
The beneficial microbes in NovoTec888 quickly attach to plant roots and form a natural protective layer around them.
This living shield helps block harmful pathogens, keeps nutrients where plants need them most, and promotes faster root development.
Healthier roots mean stronger, more resilient plants — right from the start.

Unlocks Hidden Nutrients in Soil
The Bacillus strains in NovoTec888 work like tiny bio-technicians, breaking down bound nutrients such as phosphorus and potassium into forms plants can easily absorb.
This improves fertilizer efficiency and reduces nutrient waste, helping your plants get more from every drop of water and gram of fertilizer.

Boosts Growth and Stress Resistance
NovoTec888 supports your crops during challenging conditions like heat, drought, or transplant shock.
Its beneficial microbes naturally stimulate growth hormones that improve leaf color, boost yield, and shorten harvest time — for stronger, greener, faster-growing plants.

Organic Matter Decomposition
- Enzyme production: B. subtilis secretes extracellular enzymes like:
- Proteases – break down proteins into amino acids
- Cellulases – degrade cellulose into glucose
- Lipases – break down fats into fatty acids
- These enzymes convert complex organic matter into simpler, plant-available nutrients.
Nutrient Solubilization
- Phosphorus solubilization:
- B. subtilis producesorganic acids (e.g., gluconic acid, citric acid) that:
- Lower pH locally
- Chelate calcium, iron, and aluminum ions bound to phosphate
- Release soluble phosphate (H₂PO₄⁻, HPO₄²⁻), which plants can absorb
- Potassium mobilization:
- Produces acids that dissolve silicate-bound K⁺ in soil particles.
Nitrogen Transformation and Uptake Support
- Nitrate and nitrite reduction:
- B. subtilis can take up nitrate and nitrite and convert it into amino acids, making it less available to competing pathogens and more efficient for plant uptake.
- May also fix a small amount of atmospheric nitrogen under certain conditions (if symbiotic).
Siderophore Production (Iron Availability)
- Produces siderophores—small molecules that bind Fe³⁺ tightly.
- These siderophores mobilize iron from soil particles and make it accessible to plant roots.
- Also limits iron to pathogens (pathogen suppression).
Production of Plant Hormones
- Produces auxins (like IAA) that:
- Stimulate root elongation and branching
- Increase root surface area, enhancing nutrient absorption
Stimulation of Root Exudates
- Colonization by B. subtilis can alter the plant’s exudate profile.
- Enhanced exudates further stimulate microbial activity, leading to:
- More nutrient mineralization
- Improved microbe–root synergy
