Tomatoes in Rockwool slabs with Canna:
I am so excited! I just finished planting tomatoes in rockwool slabs and cubes at our Long Beach store! I'm using Canna's Aqua Vega and Rhizotonic along with a good dose of Vermi-T and HB-101 to get them started.
After seeing how well the organic eggplant we planted is growing using Canna Aqua Vega I decided to try it on our Greenhouse variety tomatoes. I'm also excited because in the eggplant trials I noticed the remarkable growth enhancement after adding HB-101 and Vermi-T.
Apparently, HB-101 creates an immediately beneficial environment for things like Vermi-T which is all about beneficial microbes. The idea behind this philosophy of growing is for the microbes to get started faster which will allow the tomatoes to get started faster and absorb necessary nutrients for fruit production. Yum!
