There are a number of plant inoculants I have tested, all work pretty well, some better than others. Bacillus subtilis, bacillus amyloliquifasciens, bacillus licheniformis and bacillus pumilus are primarily used in these products. They promote phosphate solubilization through many mechanisms. Ultimately the efficacy of these products comes down to the specific strains of bacteria they use: Bacillus subtilis from product a may not do the same things as Bacillus subtilis in product b. You may find that one product works better in your conditions and growing environment.
1. Tribus Original - 3 species consortium of Bacillus in high concentrations ...200x more concentrated than Quantum Total. I have tested this product for only 6 months but I have seen great results with all my houseplants and orchids.
2. Inocucor - only contains Bacillus subtillis but also is a consortium of beneficial yeasts, lactobacillus and molds. I have used this product for 4 years with excellent results.
3. Quantum Total - contains more species of bacillus + photosynthetic bacteria + humic acid. I have tested this for about 2 years and it works pretty well.
