I thought I was 'seeing things' when the cots of my 166 were busting from the seed coat and the roots were
literally swirling around in a vortex of downward FURY! Lol, Ahem, etc. & probably 4-5 inches in 6 days, anyway!
Well, I had forgotten about it sort-of and I HAD re-watered it slightly a day ago butt it's not right in the way, so,
much neglect is at hand. Now, it is in a more-conspicuous place and this has been started without any ferts nor Myco added -
There is Myco in the SS Mix tube and the SS Mix from many, many seed starts and freezings; (I freeze the SS Mix whenever I've
terminated a plastic cup seed experiment, rather than leaving it out to just be gross, like food left on the counter. Ewww!) I feel that
this kills stuff that has accumulated and the Myco knows whazzup anyway. A couple days later, I may thaw the atrocity, and
let 'er dry out, in the kitchen sink; Myco survives better if it is slowly cooled by Nature rather than by my freezer, butt
if it's there, it's there. No worries. THIS experiment has NOT ever been frozen nor thawed - the SS Mix is still moist from about
1 foot to 3 feet down, give or take(!).
