Anyone tried this Pine Bark Product?
Comments (15)Hi magigal. I just wanted to say that I have been a landscaper for years prior to today, and the practice of putting plastic around flowers in a flower bed was widely used, until recent years at least in my neck of the woods.. It actually did alot of root damage to the good plants, in particular shrubs and perenials over time..The negative impact far outweighs the positive...Now we no longer use that method..Weed barriers are what we use..The water has to get through, and the good plant roots have to breath. Many other benifits to not using plastic.. This is what the poster was trying to help you avoid..:-) Many post in writing, or responses can be misinterpeted much easier than a face to face conversation. In rhizzos defense, and in hoping that you will experience a great time here going on, "Rhizzo" is the last person that would deliberately hurt or offend anyone, on purpose or by accident. I have seen all her posts, and expereinced her ajustments of my thinking on most things from pests, all the way to chemicals, usually wrong at times, and she has always been very professional in her writings, and poised in her words and sugeestions.... She is has been here for quite a long time, lurking and watching, when to post at the right time, to see us all succeed. When she opologizes, I believe that she really means it..I hope you see that as I do.. From what you wrote, you are a hard worker with limitations, and I am proud to see someone here do awesome despite that. I can actually read the excitement in your words..Bravo Back to container gardening and "barknugget use.. I will say that "pine bark nuggets" are not a good choice for container mix....It is not even suggested by Al, the one who knows these mixes better than anyone..

Comments (13)@Brian - I use a pinch of endomycorrizae (from Fedco) at seeding and transplant. Via side-by-side visual comparison, there is no doubt that it works well for plants. This winter I added it for the first time on fig cuttings, i.e., coming out of the baggie and going into the pot. @Akram - Premier Horticulture has Pro-Mix BX, HP, and BRK with "Mycorise Pro" (orange bag). JD PS. All that follows is direct from the Premier Horticulture website: PRO-MIX now offers the latest in biotechnology, MYCORISE PRO in PRO-MIX professional formulations.

Comments (12)I bought into the Wen hype too, and so I purchased a bottle. It is very expensive (for me anyway), but it sounded too good so I just had to try it. I hated it. HATED it. I tried it several times for several days in a row, read and re-read the directions...and every day my hair got worse and worse. My scalp itched, my hair felt dirty. I tried the exact amount suggested, I tried more pumps of the product, I tried less pumps - I tried leaving it on longer and shorter....Nope. No difference. My hair felt dirty/waxy, it was more limp than before and yet paradoxically it was also MORE frizzy while being more limp - and after 4 or 5 days my scalp itched so bad I couldn't take it anymore. I am thrilled it works so well for some people, but I'm here to tell you it does NOT work for everyone. :) Do NOT buy it on their website. I've heard they sign you up for automatic shipments that are very hard to cancel. If you are trying it for the first time, buy it through Amazon - you can return it if it doesn't work, and you won't get stuck having to hassle with Wen's "customer service" people. (I don't have first-hand knowledge, but read a lot complaints in the reviews on Amazon...)...See MoreAnyone here tried or had success with tissue prop kits?
Comments (7)Hi Rylee, I have dabbled a bit with the tissue culture of zinnias. You need more "stuff" than is in that kit you linked. You need a transfer hood (I made mine from a big plastic tub I bought at Walmart for a few dollars). You can "cook" your medium in a microwave, but I like to use a pressure cooker. I like to use babyfood jars. Test tubes are too small for my purposes. I bought some special reusable sterilizable (and microwaveable) plastic lids to fit my babyfood jars. I suggest you explore this Kitchen Culture link. Tissue Culture can have a much bigger multiplication ratio than propagation from cuttings. However, it is not necessarily any faster. Tissue Culture can become an engrossing hobby all by itself. However, I wouldn't call it "easy". And I wouldn't call cooking a lot of dishes in the kitchen as easy.
