Titan Biologic's OptiVeg™ offers the markets first and only gardening amendment with a 100% VERIFIED chitin content.
Not only is OptiVeg™ a great source of chitin, it is also a comprehensive vegetative additive that can replace all other sources of nitrogen in your garden.
This product consists of more than 50% carbon thus making it organic and a great source of carbon for your plants. In addition to carbon, OptiVeg™ has an amino acid profile greater than 60%.
Comprised from the bodies of a variety of land-based insects, OptiVeg™ is a superior product to marine based chitin sources such as crab shells and shrimp shells which are heavily mineralized and not as readily available to your plants.
Chitin yields an anti-fungal systemic response in plants while promoting an ideal soil biome for beneficial bacteria and endomycorrhizae. In essence, chitin promotes the growth of good fungus and bacteria while preventing the growth of detrimental fungus and bacteria.
