Phytohormones occur everywhere in the plant kingdom, even in algae, which may explain its ferocious growth rate. They are signalling molecules which are produced within the plants by themselves in very low concentrations. This gives the plant the ability to function many different tasks. It is a little like the thyroid of a human, it’s role is there in pathogen response, stress response and reproduction (maybe a slight difference to humans)
There are 9 main types of these hormones:
I have tried to research and add sources for each of these hormones and I am building up my knowledge on my blog, of which I hope as I re read and re-research I can share here too on GR420, I believe that skill and kowledge should be shared for everyone to benefit from but I'd like to ensure at least most of it is correct
With all the GHO stuff going on many may find all this information incredibly valuable.
This subject gets very complex as you are looking into compounds with
biosynthesis amongst other subjects to cover, it's like a re visit back to school
a headache or two here and there now though, am I showing my age?
They all have their own job to do but we can help our soil a bit by ensuring the availability from various sources, so I have researched where you could find smaterials to cover all 9. Many of these are food sources so you could ensure you provide little bit's of all into your compost or bokashi, all while eating healthy too
So let’s look into our soil health and help keep our plants and ourselves at tip top health.
