Fertilizer - Horse vs Cow
I read that horse fert is better than cow fert. I know from experience that cow fert always has a ton of weed seed. I started using mushroom fert. It has no weed seeds. Does anyone have experience in the difference between horse and cow ferts?

Re: Will a heating pad speed up the growth rate of a shoot?
I recently read that rain water contains more Oxygen due to the molecules being excited. Similar to what an air stone in an aquarium does. It aerates the water. There is a new hose nozel that claims to have the same effect. The water is presurized and bubbled before it comes out the nozzel.

Re: New divisions - peat moss around roots
next time try using sphagnum moss instead of the peat. I soaked the sphagnum moss overnight in water and rooting hormone. Worked great!

Black bamboo - what do I have?
Hi. Last year a propagated several large pieces of what I thought was P. Nigra. I used a sawzall to cut through the rhizome. Not an easy task. Anyway, my question is... after looking at Timor and Lako I'm not really sure if what I have is P. Nigra or not. I know the others are clumpers but does that...
