Grow Mediums mycorrhizae During flower?

[yak22]

Hey guys. I have used a dry mycorrhizae on my last few grows during transplant from cups to the final autopots. From what I can tell they help, or at least don’t hurt.
That said, I was considering doing a top feed of some more during early flowering. Again, thinking it couldn’t hurt and I have a huge bag of it.
Anyone do this before? Thanks!

You can always add more mycorrhizae, it's a beneficial bacteria. Although they do work best when applied directly to the roots during the transplant, they should not hurt the medium your using, if you were to amended with additional mycorrhizae.

The mycorrhizae colonize near the rootzone and break down food for the plant in a symbiotic exchange for sugars. They'll reproduce on their own as well, and create a giant web where they can easily transport more nutrient to the roots quicker.

I use Recharge, which has myco's that are watered in. If you're using a dry powder like Xtreme Gardening Mycos, then you'd sprinkle that during planting/transplanting. My last grow I used 5gal fabric pots and used Recharge every 10 days or so until day 21 of flower. At the end of the grow I checked the roots and the entire 5gal pot, for all 3 photo-plants, were a brick of roots and myco web. I picked up some Mikro-Myco to try next round since I've heard good things about Endo Myco's, though, with this product I'll probably need to supplement with a carb like molasses or AN Bud Candy.

I think there's a little confusion in this thread between mycorrhizae and beneficial bacteria. Mycorrhizae specifically need quite a bit of time to inoculate and grow and become effective so adding them in flour if we're just talking specifically about strands of miccorhyzae is a total waste of time. But that doesn't mean that there aren't beneficial microbes that will deliver plant nutrients to your roots and your plant and live in your soil effectively the you can add in flower.

I use all kinds of microbes and I continue to re-up them in Riyadh them with each feeding every two weeks this includes mycorrhizae but it also includes bacteria will cause all kinds of different microbes that are beneficial to the soil which is a living organism. Go ahead and use them but just be careful of what you spend and the cost associated with them.

The truth is most companies get their mycorrhizae from two or three companies that grow them and none of them grow it organically.

Two companies, greengro and Rootwise both either produce or have produced their own fungi in the United States under organic conditions.

Take a look at Brandon rust company he make something called microbe plus. That's been fantastic for my plants.
