Five weeks of built-in nutrition in a forgiving, all-purpose living soil for every stage from nursery to early flower
bio365 BIOALL is the most versatile product in the bio365 lineup: a nutrient-dense blend of coir, peat, and perlite with up to five weeks of bioavailable organic nutrition (0.45-0.18-0.40) and 1.96% magnesium. Built on the same bioCHARGE and bioCORE platform as BIOFLOWER, but calibrated for vegetative growth and early flowering. Works standalone for a full cycle or as Part 1 of a two-part system with BIOFLOWER for growers who transplant at the flip. This is the bio365 product that flew to the International Space Station in 2020, the first commercially engineered soil ever tested in orbit.

Conventional potting soil vs. BIOALL
Conventional Potting Soil
Outdoor composted, exposed to weather, pests, and variable conditions
Nutrients deplete in 1-2 weeks, then you're bottle-feeding on a schedule
No biochar, limited or no beneficial biology
Performance varies batch to batch depending on compost quality
May contain fungus gnats, weed seeds, or root-zone pathogens
Narrow pH buffering, easy to over or under water
bio365 BIOALL
Made 100% indoors, FSMA tested, pathogen-free, consistent bag to bag
Up to 5 weeks of bioavailable nutrition, no bottle-feeding needed during veg
bioCHARGE biology delivers nutrients on demand through root exudate signaling
Dual biochemical buffer makes overwatering and pH mistakes hard to do
Ready to use from the bag, no prep, no rehydrating
Works standalone full-cycle or as Part 1 with BIOFLOWER for transplant growers
Features
What BIOALL does for your grow
5 Weeks of Built-In Nutrition 0.45-0.18-0.40
BIOALL carries enough bioavailable organic nutrition to support lush vegetative growth through the initial stage of flowering without any supplemental feeding. The highest nitrogen content in the bio365 lineup at 0.45%.
Most Forgiving bio365 Soil
The dual biochemical buffer enhanced by bioCORE biochar gives BIOALL the widest sweet spot in the lineup. Difficult to overwater, stable pH, and tolerant of beginner mistakes. bio365 recommends this as their best option for new growers.
Part 1 of a Two-Part System
Use BIOALL for veg, then transplant into BIOFLOWER at the flip for elevated P and K during flowering. Or run BIOALL standalone for a simpler, single-soil approach through the entire cycle.
First Soil Tested on the ISS
In October 2020, BIOALL became the first commercially engineered soil sent to the International Space Station, approved by NASA and CASIS. The experiment was led by Cornell University researchers studying how biochar-based soils perform in controlled environments.
ultimateAIR Porosity
Engineered air-filled porosity prevents waterlogging and delivers oxygen to the root zone. The coir, peat, and perlite blend provides moderate porosity that balances water retention with drainage.
Every Environment, Every Container Size
Indoor, outdoor, greenhouse. Small pots to large raised beds. BIOALL adapts to every growing situation. Also available in grow bags (1.25 to 20 gal) and 4-yard super sacks for commercial operations.
Derived From: Poultry Litter, Feather Meal, Dolomite, Bone Meal, Bone Char, Sulfate of Potash
How to use BIOALL
1
Fill your containers
BIOALL is ready to use from the bag. Fill pots, fabric containers, or raised beds. No amendments, no mixing, no prep required.
2
Transplant seedlings
Dig a small hole and fill the planting pocket with BIOSTART or another seed-starting mix. Do not seed directly into BIOALL, as the nutrient density can overwhelm very young seedlings.
3
Water and let the biology work
For the first 5 weeks, just water. The bioCHARGE biology delivers nutrients as the plant requests them through root exudates. The dual buffer makes overwatering difficult.
4
Transplant into BIOFLOWER or supplement
At the flip, either transplant into BIOFLOWER for 8 more weeks of bloom nutrition, or begin supplemental feeding if running BIOALL standalone through flower.

BIOALL or BIOFLOWER? BIOALL is tuned for veg with higher nitrogen. BIOFLOWER is tuned for bloom with elevated P and K. Use both for the best results, or run either one standalone. 716-217-0353 / help@happyhydro.com
Questions
Frequently asked questions
Both. BIOALL carries 5 weeks of nutrition, which covers the full vegetative stage and the initial weeks of flowering for most plants. After that, you can either transplant into BIOFLOWER for another 8 weeks of bloom nutrition, or begin supplemental feeding if you prefer to keep plants in the same container. Many growers run BIOALL standalone for the entire cycle and supplement lightly in late flower.
BIOALL has more nitrogen (0.45%) and is calibrated for lush vegetative growth, carrying plants through the first 5 weeks. BIOFLOWER has higher phosphorus and potassium with up to 8 weeks of nutrition, calibrated for the elevated demands of the flowering stage. The ideal setup is BIOALL for veg, transplant into BIOFLOWER at the flip. But both work standalone for a full cycle.
For the first 5 weeks, no. The built-in nutrition handles vegetative growth without supplemental inputs. After that, it depends on your approach: transplant into BIOFLOWER for more built-in nutrition, or begin supplemental feeding with organic top-dresses or liquid nutrients. BIOALL supports both organic and salt-based programs.
Yes. In October 2020, BIOALL was sent to the ISS as part of a Cornell University research experiment approved by NASA and CASIS. It was the first commercially engineered soil ever tested in orbit. The experiment studied how biochar-based soils perform in the extreme controlled environment of space. The research was led by Morgan Irons alongside Dr. Johannes Lehmann, a leading biochar scientist.
It's not recommended. BIOALL has significant nutrient density that can overwhelm very young seedlings. Start seeds in BIOSTART or another light seed-starting mix, then transplant into BIOALL once the seedling has its first set of true leaves and a visible root system.
Yes. BIOALL works in every growing environment: indoor containers, outdoor gardens, greenhouses, raised beds, and grow bags. The dual biochemical buffer and bioCHARGE biology function the same regardless of setting. For large outdoor applications, bio365 also offers BIOALL in 4-yard super sacks.
