Plantago is an organic derivative of psyllium ( Plantago Ovata) whose adhesive properties are used as a soil tackifier.
When psyllium seeds are processed to make psyllium husk (fiber) , the extraneous material is an industrial grade psyllium powder called plantago . This finely ground muciliod coating of plantago seeds is used as an economical and cost effective tackifier for hydroseeding and erosion control applications.
The product is all natural, non toxic , biodegradable and hydrates rapidly. Plantago may applied as a wet slurry to the surface of the soil. It dries to form a firm but rewettable membrane that binds soil particles together and permits germination and growth of seed.
Application rates vary from 50 - 150lbs./ acre Drying (curing) time 9-18 hours.
