It's all about the Trichomes
I learn something new everyday. Never seen that done before. I've seen living soils but never this. To each his own. I'm defiantly interested to see how it turns out.They aren't weeds bro! They are clovers. And clovers have several benefits in a garden. One of the most popular is pest control. The smell of covers deter unwanted insects. The few insects they do attract, are beneficial insects.. covers also serve as nitrogen fixers in soil. They also help keep your grow medium/soil from compacting and they aid microbial life. The list of benefits is long.. The technical term is called "cover crop". It's been around for centuries. Used mainly in organic growing when you don't feed your plants bottled nutes. You may see some people use hay or mulch as a cover crop ad well. The cannabis plant will grow much taller/bigger than the cover crop, but the cover crop will still be doing it's job in the soil to help the cannabis plants health. The objective of organic growing is to feed the "soil", which in turn, feeds the plant... Bottled nutes are mostly designed to feed the "plant" and not the soil.. Thus having to mix nutes every week. You can find tons of info on it with a quick google search of the term "cover crop". Here are a few example pics from google.. View attachment 1011832 View attachment 1011833
