I don't doubt they were, and I can't claim that mycos are a busted myth yet either. I had been thinking I would write up why I doubt mycos, but you have made me realize I need to do some testing before I open my mouth. I have used mycos in field conditions at school. We tested yield, establishment rate, and broke the plants down to roots and shoots and tested each for mineral content, biomass, and chlorophyl density. What we found was that plants with mycos in poor soil showed massive increases in all categories. Plants with NO mycos however outperformed plants with mycos and rich nutritious soil.

We also found decreasing benefit in year two, and that if we fertilized the mycos in poor soil the benefit was gone. Others have shown that the trading of sugars with the plant for nutrients did not occur in the presence of fertilizers. A third problem is that endo-mycos do not associate with plants in the presence of ecto-mycos. Why we are not sure, but half of the brands out there have added ectos to their product, ensuring decreased efficiency.

Mind = Blown!

but there are many types out there, I know not are all good ones.. there are certain strains that simply do nothing to help anything, kinda a filler I guess?am happy with kind I use though.
 

Brother hecno, I really enjoyed the playlist for my wake and bake this morning :pass:




My kitchen cabinets were delayed a week for the holidays. Woulda been nice if they had notified me on the web page of a week long closure. Oh well.
I sent my helpers home all week waiting on them. But I got a lot of finishing work done. I almost have a kitchen again after three weeks of getting water from the bathroom....

I have to pick paint colors today. I hate this part.


that was beautiful version. Spine tingles:-) Sometimes he just wasn't there during that period but you can see he's feeling it here. I loved the closeup during the guitar solo.:pass:
