And here we are at organic grow number 2. Learned a lot from my first organic grow, so I'm going to start putting everything into practice this time around. I managed to locate a source for good organic nutrients, myco, bacterial innoculant, and some dried water soluable coconut powder,200x aloe flakes. My aloe plant needs to recover some leaves after I cannibalized it last grow.
Started them using the paper towel method. they popped after 2 days.
