I havent used it for a cube soak( but that sounds like a good idea) but i start applying itti their feed regime omce the cutts have roots. Ill apply chitosan atleast once a week but usually twice.

Ok cool. Yeah I used it at 1TBS per gal in my rw soak. I'm guessing that's going to work well. Thanks for the info brotha.

I've been using the chito in my rockwool soak for clones... but only at a tsp per gallon which is 2 grams per gallon. I've always had good rates and quick rooting, but everything has been pretty much 10 days from cut to planting, 99.9999% success since using chito.

A tbsp per gallon would be 6 grams per gallon. From what I've seen you can pretty much apply this shit liberally, however tbsp/gal might be a little unnecessary. Just my thoughts/experience @delae632 :D good luck!

hey man im a huge beleiver in chitosan now as well. i have searched everthing i can find about this stuff and i just cant find a reason not to use it. u can also source chitosan oglisaccaride on ebay very cheap like 5 grams for 15$ here is the link this saler has different amounts as well to sale but i think 5 grams will last me a while. i also have frass that i use as tea one a week for prevention and also to activate SAR. 1tablespoon a gallon is over kill and waste. i use it at .2-.5 per gallon and works wonders

I have read that Chitosan can be applied from 200-2000 ppm at various times within a plants life cycle. Does someone know what this breaks down to?
Oh yeah and same application rate for foliar? .25-.5grams a gallon.

sounds like u and me are on the same page then lol i also use regalia lol this is my combo i use on my plants with great success. regalia,chitosan and aloe vera. a 3 hit combo of SAR/ISR inducing. im trying my damnest this year to prevent bud rot in guerilla growing. i have insect frass and bud factor x i will be using this year. i will use the frass for topdressing,bud factor x for folair and regalia for folair and soil drenching. the aloe will be soil drenching as well. i been using the Aloe in veg as well as part of my IPM on insects

i wanted to show u guys the growth rate since the last time i was at plot#5 last week. i gave them Vitazyme,Insect frass,Regalia andAloe vera. all these things are bio stimulates/bio-fungicides. i was really skeptical that this stuff would do what it says but the proof is in the growth rates. u can see the plants have filled out alot more compared to before it was applied. All these things are organic as well. Pic#1 is the church before the application of the bio-stimulants and pic#2 is After. pic#3 is the Dela before and pic #4 is the after. pretty amazing stuff imo.

What was the source of your chitosan @Confuten1
I've been sourcing mine out of china for 225 a kilo. Its rated below 5K Daltons- low molecular weight which is what you want.
