It allows for air to pass through the root zone. It keeps your roots breathing when you feed the plants. Keeps soil from compacting your roots.

Just adjusted light to about 27" above canopy. Hopefully it doesn't burn and hopefully it helps with stretch.

Right. Thank you. But is this just regular organic flour bought from the grocery store? I'm a noob. Sorry

I've never used a tea like this, I'm assuming it is organic wheat flour from the grocery store

I only use simple quick teas of organic raw unfiltered unpasteurized honey water, rice wash water (water used to rinse water before cooking rice) and decaffeinated green tea. All items we eat, so it makes it easier for me. But I amend my soil and only use a drop of honey each watering. The rice water or decaf green tea are for a quick "boost." Have to be careful with teas, I dont measure ppm, so dilute with filtered water heavily
