This seems familiar- Seamonkey84’s first grow in 12+yrs

don’t feel like you need to reinvent the mycorrhizal wheel - numerous studies have been done (that aren’t sponsored by the myco companies themselves) that have proven over and over again that it does work.

Yea, I’ve read a few articles and there are already numerous videos out there. I’ve even been looking for the specific mycorrhizae that work with blueberries. But I’d still like to see the difference for myself. I don’t remember it as something that was so popular back like 15 years ago. I sure didn’t use any, unless it was already added to promix back then. I also don’t remember my plants growing as fast in the beginning as these treated plants did.

Im sorry theyre being difficult. Hopefully you can save it for another day. Do you know why they dont want to root?

I’m wondering if they were still a bit deficient, though all the new growth that I took cuts from looked vibrant and healthy. I’ve also read there are some plants that are difficult or just don’t want to root.

during the waning moon it is harder to get roots to take, in one week will be the new moon and the cuttings will take better then - SCIENCE!

Hmm, I never took notes back in the day. I just remember my cuts from my mothers always rooted in 7-9 days, veg for 7-5 days and put into flower. Cut Sunday, usually planted the next Sunday, put into flower the very next Sunday.

If its hermied already chuck it otherwise you will miss nanners and end up seeding your other girls and those seeds will no doubt herm to

Last week and this week are the time to harvest as the plants take up the least amount of water.planting by the moon cycles is a long proven method

Plant on a new moon and harvest when it’s full?

The training on the plant in the back right had been a bit slack, it got a bit stretchier than the others. The runner up Banana kush that was just up potted is a bit behind in growth, but she’s got her spot now. Let’s just hope the rest of these remain females. Will be watching closely and keeping an eye out for naners later in bud development too.

Hello, have you seen the Biodynamic Calendar? The moon, even in the waning phase, can influence the aerial part of the plants, if it is in an ascending phase. A German woman spent 50 years planting and divided her days in favor of roots, stems and leaves, fruits and flowers. She associated this with the positions of the moon, sun and planets. It’s worth it, I work with this calendar, both for cannabis and food production.
Forgive me if you already talked about it
