Is the Mycorrhizae the root stuff?

I'm not going to try anything more until my current grow is done. I only have one grow space and it's full.

Yeah. Theres a million of them around. Great White is what Im currently using but dycomitizer (or something like that) is the strongest.

Its roughly $10-15, helps your plant absorb more nutrients.

ill say it again

25% Humic Acid 75% Distilled water and Soak overnight then plant straight into some nice warm moist soil.

What purpose does humic acid serve to root development? (Genuinely asking)

There is a Study on the solution with Radish seeds, that resulted in a 100% germination when using a 25% Solution, yes I know radish seeds are not cannabis seeds, but I have used this trick on 20 year old tomato seeds and got a 90% germination rate with them, All seeds basically work pretty close to the same as far as what is needed for germination so logically if it works on one type of seed, it should, at least in theory, work on all seeds. It Improves germ rates and it encourages root devolopment. I am doing a lil "unscientific"study with my plant now, I am watering with Humic Acid added to my pH'ed water at every watering just to see what the root ball looks like at harvest.


Seeds treated with Humic Acid have been shown to have the following: Faster germination rates. Increased nutrient uptakes.

Addition of humic acid increased root growth 58% in water alone, and 25% in nutri- ent solution. Chen and Aviad (1990) cite several studies demonstrating the influence of humic materi- als on nutrient uptake by plants.

Sounds credible enough. Learn something new on this site all the time.

Also, Im in Ohio as well. Look forward to watching your journey. I'll share mine as it develops more. Not my first grow, but my first semi- controlled one.

I am a research monkey who actually enjoys reading scientific studies(yes i know total geek lol)

Tissue culture may be the way to go.
I dabble a bit. Just going to start to remove some embryos form seed coat, sterilizing and sprouting in tissue culture.

Doing some testing.
