-⅛ tsp each
Piranha (beneficial fungi)
Catalyst (some goodies for the fungi)
Temp up to 84F inside dome. Humidity rising nicely, too.
Oh, I promised gory details, didn’t I? I try not to break promises, if I can, so here, mofos:

Nutrients
Going with my usual goodies, to start.

Training?: potentially scrogging most of them. Maybe not. Who knows?
Let’s see, am I missing any pertinent info?
Thinking about giving each nute product its own post, kind of a Spotlight on each one? Help those interested to understand why each product is used when it’s used?
