Worms vs Hormones! The heat took it from me before it’s time. Luckily the plant’s scion was ready to renew itself. I tested six ways of starting clones.
This video is sponsored by VermisTerra. Vitality is rich in water soluble plant nutrients, trace minerals, plant hormones, and beneficial microbes. It’s excellent for propagation, reviving struggling plants, and works in both soil or hydroponics. It can even balance hydroponic water, reducing the need to adjust the ph. You can use less nutrients, keep reusing the water AND see healthier growth. Vitality can Reduce mold in high humidity settings and when growing microgreens. The many benefits show up long term; use it consistently to see amazing growth.
