Use root innoculant from the start

Post by twilson »

I germinated beans in a paper towel. I then picked them up by the seed shell and dipped them in the root innoculant and placed the root into the hole in the rockwool cube with the shell above ground. I also poured some of the innoculant into the hole in the rockwool cube.

A week later the seedlings are doing well.

I used Oregonism xl.
If Muley can scruff along i can too.

Yeah just a word of warning to anyone about to purchase some.

The stuff has an expiration date so make sure you get a date as far into the future as possible. There's a lot of reviews of this stuff online. Most people seem to think it makes a difference.

Well that's good to know. I probably would have dumped it in the garbage but I'll hold onto it until it's all gone.

Been reading about another innoculant called Great White that a lot of people are speaking highly of.

Once inoculated, DO NOT use tap/city water!! The fluoride will kill all the good little bugs.
