mycorrhizal fungi as a rooting a powder?
just as the title says?
while researching myco's i came across an article where a guy dips his rooted cuttings into some before transplanting. seemed like a great idea. what about using it as the rooting agent? |

arbuscular mycorrhizae won't even germinate in the absence of roots, so it's not going to encourage rooting.
however the spores will be there as soon as roots form, which could help. |

at veg. transplant into larger 1 gallon containers. i clean the top of the rubbermaid tote i store used veg soil in( for transplant use.) this is per plant i repeat this process. sprinkle enough myco granules,powder etc. out just enough to lightly coat the top of the rubbermaid lid. pop the lil ladies out i spray the rootball with a water/kelp lolution (slightly weak). the gently roll the girl in the mycorrizae inoculant. put in new pot add the used (composted,aged,amended soil.) tuck her in nice too. just an idea ya know. trying is the best part.

nice, thanks for the replies guys. i'll just use it on the transplant. i normally amend the soil with it but rolling/coating the roots sounds bomb

myco's are fairly expensive doesnt take alot.I will see how it does when they get the axe and im removing rootball and main stem. but im thinking on mulching my trim and stems to the tops of my conatiners. thanks to (pinecone) for an awesome process that i will see how it works.from what i get information wise it will take a few recycles to make an impact on the soil life .

MY VAM Guru says can successfully apply VAM with the root gel.
BUT I wait till roots poke out of the rooter then apply.
