I think I found the answer to the question I was about to post. Next April, maybe six weeks before I transplant my girls outside... I will pre-plant some early onions to build some roots and a mycorrhizal network. I want to get the nutrient superhighway going early so my girls can plug in and get quick access. Pretty cheap, too. What do you think? From the link below:
" ... Here is one way we speed up plant growth next month. After dipping them in our mycorrhizal inoculant, we have already started planting onions and shallots into areas that we will later be planting with other plants like tomatoes and peppers. The onions are very good at feeding mycorrhizal fungi and, over the next month, they will establish a stronger mycorrhizal network for other vegetables to tap into. This gets the other veggies off to a better, faster start since they already have an established root system to grow into. ..."
