Hey Guys,
The grow shop I ordered some 3 gallon pots from flubbed the order and sent me some free stuff to say sorry. One of the things they sent was a product containing chitosan as the active ingredient. It's supposed to trick the plant into thinking it's under attack activating it's immune system.
Is this broscience?
There's already chitosan in the nutes I use, so I'm not too worried that it'll hurt the plants. On the other hand, I don't know if there are any side effects, or a maximum dosage.
Does anyone have any info on whether there's a toxic dose of chitosan?
I've already e-mailed the company to ask, but we all know some companies will tell you anything to get you to buy their products.
