Hydrating with honey water?
    #7716795 - 12/04/07 06:32 PM (16 years, 1 month ago)

I'm just curious if RR or anybody has done any tests regarding this, or if it's at all feasible for providing extra nutrients to the substrate.

Instead of hydrating your cake, substrate, spawn, etc [any nutritious body] with pure water, replace it instead with a sterilized honey + water or dextrose + water combo. Would the extra nutrition help any, or is it too much of a contam risk, or a waste of time etc?

if you used the drinking straw method then you might be able to do add some nutrients this way. The small opening at the end of the straw would limit the contam accessibility to 1/4th inch. If you were to cover the cake with honey water then it leave the whole thing open to contams.
On the flip side, I do not think honey water would provide much food for the cakes

Stop experimenting half way through your first grow. Grow it to maturity, watch it, learn from it. Do this a few times then experiment with different ideas and figure out what works best for you.
