So @Meesh do you think MC promoted the suckerās then?

Either promoted the graft to over perform the bush or killed the bush and the graft lived.

Sorry to hear the bad news regarding the rose bush guess you might be seeing things differently with the loss of a favorite plant.

Sorry to hear about your poor rose plant.
I canāt imagine what could be in MC that may have harmed your
plant.
I have zero experience with roses.
I did use MC without any problems on coleus, vinca, tithonia, tomatoes, peppers,
nasturtiums, sunflowers.
I wonder?

More than likely it made the suppressed root graft over perform and kill the rose bush. It probably worked, but on the wrong part of the plant. lol
Iām not seeing Megacrop differently. I still think itās great and easy peasy on MJ plants. I am however, not going to be as daring with throwing mj nutes in my other plants lol Iām sure that will not be the first plant I kill doing dumb things,

In my experience MJ nutes diluted 50% worked wonders for my xmas cactus
That, however, is the extent of my experience so far

Oh man I want to, but donāt have the space in my life for another medium, one day, maybe, but my relationship with coco (and cannabis) has to remain, for now, monogamous.

Itās been raining here for a week straight. I have a bucket outside completely filled with rain. My blueberry bush is drowning. Iāve had to dump water out of it like 3 times this week as itās so full of water inches were floating on top. I stupidly planted it in a ceramic pot with no drainage. Iām gonna need to emergency transplant it probably tomorrow as supposedly the sun is coming out. Shit! The thing finally came out of dormancy and is throwing buds and now this. Ugh!

Oh do I ever know what you mean. This is right now: the gutters are not damaged, just canāt keep up with roof drainage every once in a whileā¦
Nothing in a pot survives the winter (rainy season) here outside too well. I guess itās not that common where you are. Good luck with the Bush! (Autocorrect capitalized Bush so Iām leaving it )

Wow! This the first time we have had a real winter in years! They kept saying El Nino was coming back, but after like 5 years of drought I gave up believing. I love the rain, but only like 2 days at a time. This spoiled Cali girl gets depressed without my sunshine. It has actually been in the 50ās here in the daytime too. Itās so rare, when I planted the bush it never occurred to me that it would drown from rain of all things!
The thing that is really bugging me the most is I canāt clean up the dog poop in the backyard. Itās kinda mushy from the rain. Drives me crazy when I run to the greenhouse and I have to hurdle obstacles.

A bucket? You need to up grade that to a 50 gallon barrel or maybe 2 or 3! Lol
A little rain trivia for ya! For like every inch of rain that falls on a approximately 1300 square foot area of roof one can expect to collect upwards of 800 gallons!
How many inches have fallen recently?

No idea, but Iām guessing in a week, like a foot or more.
I wish every year were like this! Collecting rain water around here is usually a fools game. It would generally be a waste of money to buy rain barrels. For the longest time it was illegal in my city. Right now, Iām wishing I had them! Oh well, I do have a few buckets of fresh rain water out there now for the greenhouse plants!

When you start getting your soil real good those rains will soak right in and youāll have very little run off and will hold it like no bodyās business!
I posted a vid with Gabe Brown on OG here where he states he has upwards of 10% organic matter in his soil profile and it rained 13 inches one year over a coarse of 2 days and his soil took it all in to a point where a floater truck could drive over his fields the next day! Impressive!
