Will Fox Farm Grow Big KILL mycos?

Wetdog said:
What I use is full of different ones also, fungi and bacteria. Guess it's easier to cover all the bases.

I inoculate the roots of clones just before transplanting into soil. Uses much less and you know that the roots have come into contact with it. Doing a soil drench is kinda wasteful IMO.

Thankyou dude, the bottle would be gone in a few goes if i did what it recomends on the lable, everything pointed to being able to innoculate the roots when small and allowing it to multiply as the plant grew, this will be how i use it in future when i first transplant seedlings. Big money saver for me i guess. Thanks wet. Peace

Just the way they evolved I guess?

Like different strains of yeast for different beers, different wines and so on.

Lol....this reminded me of a fella who opened a bottle of home made wine one night.Chit was like a rocket goin off an wine all over.He said "My stoner self MUST have put the yeast for champagne in this one".He was soaked in wine....foony stuff

Why different ones for different types of plants?

Max before giving a specific answer why dont you look up the definitions(biological terms)of endo and ecto. With a bit thought and connecting the dots I bet you will be able to answer your own question.
And Wet is correct, plants and their ecosystems have evolved to work in harmony. Kinda like growing a crop of legumes in your garden. They really do not use the nitrogen you feed them during the growing season, they like to take the nitrogen they use for growth from the air. Taking the nitrogen you have been feeding them and help 'fix' it into the soil, ready for next years growth. Its a balancing act, container growing that is, we are dealing with very small ecosystems in our containers. So there is less room for error so the balance is more easily tipped....

Because this is a thread to learn off and we just cant be bothered when you can tell us the difference, even within endo and ecto there are many different species, some more helpfull than others, i looked it up and then unlooked it up, not a simple subject to understand in its complexity.If we all just looked things up we wouldnt need this thread.

No one mentioned the third type of mycos either. Peace

I see you got Ron Paul Back on your sig max!lol!

Sometimes its the simplicity of something that makes them difficult............and from the time lapse from my original post and yours, I see how much effort and thought your willing to expend....lets call it the 8 minute research project......

I did a lot of research and read everything but i dont care who thinks what of me and what i know, i was just looking to understand better. Seriously after hours, no days, no weeks and more of trying to work out the best strain and benificials to use i thought it would be better to just go by word of mouth and hopefully get some questions asked.
I feel more confident after talking to fellow growers than i ever did researching the subject and ended up buying the mycos on other growers recomendations. Thanks anyway dude. Peace
 
I know you have done your homework King. Its not just about getting an answer. But more about wondering why is it the answer really does not relate to the question, just trying to stimulate and lead maxs eager mind in the right direction....
 
Just out of intrest, some of my mycos splashed on the lid of the container they were in, the lid had a paper/plastic insert and today there is a big white fuzzy growth. In the space of a few days these mycos populated the lid and surrounding areas which makes me think they are a lot quicker than i originally thought, looks just like the fuzzy stuff on my roots when i transplanted a small plant last night. Peace
 
It certainly was an intresting observation, was totally bright white and fungus like, just made me think the mycos had started a colony, i will scrape this off and apply to some roots at next transplant. Peace
 
Hi Guys, I have read this thread and have learned and been confused. I use promix with micros and want to make a full switch to organics. I have a plant out in the woods that I used Happy Frog fruit and Vegetable granules on and it has way better resin production than the ones at the indoor spot that get the fox farm line of nutes, Big Bloom,tiger bloom , open sesame , beastie blooms and cha-ching. None of them using these nutes are making me happy with the final product.
Which brings me to ask, if you could suggest what products i could use to start and finish with that have worked well for you in soil. I am going to the store tomorrow to get what I need . I really like the Happy frog and am interested in teas after i get the grasp of organics. Thank you
 
Where I live a 1.5 cf bag of ffof is 30 bucks, and a bail of promix that expands out to 7.5 cf for 35 bucks... IMO ffof drys out waaaaaay to quick, I'm on my seconds run with a batch and the first run I added perlite to it and the shit had to be watered just about everyday, and I'm on my second run with it, without the perlite and let me tell you that its not that much better. If I suggested any additive for ffof it would be vermiculite
