If any of you guys are interested in the Ecological labs stuff, they do a $12.95 sample box of their 4 main products and its free shipping."Microbe Life" in google will get you there. I'm not sure what the hell the Photosynthesis Plus stuff actually is... I smelled it once and couldnt image using it in flower. A friend who works for Down to Earth told me its some special stuff that he highly recommends, but idk. If anyone educated on that product could chime in, feel free. The "Vegetable and Fruit Enhancer" is the one I'll be giving a try. My bag of Xtreme Mykos is almost empty, I wish they had that one on there.

Not sure if i grasp your meaning. But the data posted by op is from a thread on logical gardener. Im pretty sure the data is legit.

The original post was made by the KIS guy.

If you follow the link dont sweat the security warnings. They have a persistent issue with their certificate. The site is safe and informative.

Shouldnt a good organic soil have teamz of beneficials in them already..?

I dont quite understand why you want to add into an already buoyant neighbourhood...? :)

Also....there are mycorrhizae products that people have mentioned on this thread...and theres a reason why they arent included in the study.

On a side note on mycorrhizae....i see a few growers that keep adding it throughout the grow. Now.. i might be missing something here...but surely after the roots have been colonized at time of transplant/clone...that is enough? Also if you cover crop and no till..in my mind..there is no longer a need to use it as mycorrhizae is being hosted/present constantly.

Sorry...needed a rant.. :)

what rant? i see only good points. i use it to reduce stress,i have a bad habit of letting my soil dry out so i like to think im reinoculating the herd. but like u said....good soil is good enough.

when the soil dries i assume my microbes die. so ill mix a strong dose of great white and just water that in with some of whatever i have to reinoculate like grokashi,worm shit,compost. i use it for mostly transplants and early flower when i topdress.....oh yea ill soak my seedstarters in for the rhizos to try n prevent any damping off. other than that, i hate the shit lol

Fair enough...im just really curious on peoples technquies and reasonz as in my part of the globe...adding powdered beneficial bacteria is mainly unheard of.

So you dont think your, grokashi, worm castings and compost would have a shit load more benes in it? Or is the great white a safe guard to include more? (Well until you see the testz right..haha.. :) )

Oh Great White Shark is a source of mycorrhizae as well...( just read that)
