I have some pictures in this post so ou can see with your own eyes the benefits of using beneficial microrgansims. There was improved plant growth rate. This increased rate of growth continued throughout the plants life cycle. Plants with the microorganisms were larger, produced more fruit at a faster rate compared to those that did not have any beneficial microorgansims. They say a picture is worth 1000 words, and seeing is believing, so here you go. I used plant height as a measure in this post, but there are a number of different things you can measure to test the affects of products on plant growth
You can see the benefit already at the seedling stage The seedlings on the left (With beneficial organisms added to the soil) are statistically larger. Remember this is a scientific experiment, all other conditions (light, water, temperature, medium grown in etc.) are the same, so the reason for the difference is due to the addition of microorgansims like Stump Tea.
Sorry about the yellowish color, these plants are under a 600W HPS with a sun soaker reflector.
You can see the benefits continue, the group on the left has shown an increased growth rate. The plants on the left have an aditional node and are about 2cm or about an inch taller
You must always have a control group, and you must take careful measurements to determine if a product is actually improving plant growth. Don't be afraid to try a new product, but test it to see if it worth it.
Good Growing,
