thanks! So making cuttings with a high number rooting sites gets the plants off the a better start and therefore a bigger yield?
Great info. Really good@intense, thanks for an in depth post on the topic. You mentioned lateral root formation but then didn’t elaborate. Just wondering how I can get my cutting to do this.
No probs. By removing the auxin signal at 72-96hrs and preventing auxin inhibition that blocks founder cells at the pre mitotic stage by tweaking the environment as described above. Lateral root growth is initiated in the pericycle of the primary roots. In cuttings there will be several primary roots, a seedling has is only one. If you want to get techy about it, drop P and S levels to cease the elongation of primary roots and promote lateral root growth. Tinkering like this predetermines the architecture of the mature plant.
Because eventually that stuffs going to end up in my lungs and personally if I can choose between something thats come out of a lab and mother nature its mother nature any day.
How does dropping the levels of P and S help? I thought depriving plants of nutrients is bad.
How do you drop S and P?
