    -----
    Research has shown that vitamin B1, also known as thiamine, does not reduce transplant shock or stimulate new root growth on plants outside of a laboratory setting. In fact, some say that buying vitamin B1 fertilizer for plants is a waste of money.
    VERY OLD INFORMATION:
    The myth that vitamin B1 helps plants grow larger and healthier began in 1930 when a scientist observed that B1 helped stimulate the growth of plant roots in a lab petri dish. The idea became popular throughout the decade, and was further popularized in the December 1939 issue of Better Homes & Gardens. However, research and experimentation throughout the 20th century has revealed that Vitamin B1 on its own does not stimulate root growth. In fact, tests done at Sunset Magazine showed that it's not the Vitamin B-1, it's the other ingredients in the bottle that might make a difference in roots and growth of new plants.
    Here are some ways to fertilize an organic garden:
    Compost
    A free, slow-releasing fertilizer that improves soil structure and helps plants retain water. You can use compost in combination with fish or seaweed fertilizer.
    Grass clippings
    A good source of nitrogen, you can add ½” to the soil in the spring, or a 1-2” layer on top of the soil around the plants.
    Animal manures
    Use well-rotted manure from horses or chickens, but avoid fresh manure. You can mix composted manure into your garden beds, or mix it with water to make a liquid fertilizer to spray on your gardens.
    Blood meal
    A powder made from dried animal blood that's used when high amounts of nitrogen are needed. You can apply it in powder form or dissolve it in water and use it as a spray. This form of fertilizer works well for green leafy plants.
    You can also try these homemade fertilizers:
    Lomi dirt with organic food waste
    Leftover egg shells
    Banana peels
    Aquarium water
    Brew compost tea
    Discarded weeds as plant food
    You can fertilize plants growing in organic soil that's rich with organic matter a little bit every three to four weeks. You can broadcast dry fertilizer over the entire garden plot before planting, then side-dress along the plant rows 2-3 inches to the side of, and 1-2 inches below, the seed level or plant row.

    Adding B-1 seems to help with root growth in my propagations, and also transplanting to semi-hydroponics afterwards. I used to use Root Zone & Clonex combined with an airstone for very fast, healthy root growth in props. Adding Liquinox B-1 to the prop stage seems to have quickened the secondary root process, and helped with a better success rate + recovery from transplanting to semi-hydro. Overall I'm not seeing any downsides, so definitely using it in the future.

    I use the B1 liquid often. Great all around to use, especially with potted plants. The chelated iron is another I use regularly. Great info as always 👍

      You are correct! I have been using this supplement for many years and have seen fast results so I keep using it. I have mimicked this same technique with other supplements and consistency see better results with the plant starters.

    Hi just found you. i'm in AZ too north of you. getting ready to plant. I used liquid B1 when growing in northern NM at the advice of the local nursery. I planted 100 dumpster plants from his nursery with 99 fruit bushes and fruit tree success. I only used b1 and super thrive and watered deep tree wells filled 3x every 3 days. It was ski country with 9,500 altitude and high winds. Now i'm starting from scratch again and it seems even more challenging. You are so right mulch is absolutely necessary. I look forward to seeing your blackberries.

    Sounds good! I reseaeched vit b12 for fertialzimg, but stumbled on your b1 video, i want to grind my tablets to feed my plant.

      B12 should be good for cell formation and metabolism. That'll be interesting to see what B12 does to plants! Let us know what happens!

      What will you be feeding it to this year?

      @@AmzBackyardOrchardandVineyard I didnt dare to feed it with b12 yet, but i had great success with bor, it interacts with magnesium uptake, immedeatly caused more leaves to sprout. I belive seeweed also is a natural b1 stimulant. (Kelp) i also feed kalium citrate via liquid solution, together wit h magnesium citrate. (have some calcium gypsum mixed in the soil.) I also had b1 sitting around, so i put that one into the mix. (after repotting) Enzymes is the next on the list, makes stuff bio available.
      For b12, i think it can work, many feed fish blood, but not sure about it, i do a greenhouse, and dont want the odeur.

      You are correct, those are all just minerals and elements that are naturally in our soils. With the right pH (around 6.0) they can be readily accessible to most plants. There are a lot of brand name and off brand synthetic fertilizer products that deliver those with a little sprinkle of sulphur to help uptake the solution.

      The problem we have found over the years with our fast growing annuals is they rely on the synthetic fertilizers. They respond really well and grow fast and healthy and productive, the problem is they rely on the fertilizer as opposed to our soil that we have been trying to build naturally with all the fun organic stuff we add to our native soil including attracting microbes and earthworms. As you already know, Those little critters supply our plants with the elements, macro and micro nutrients naturally and sustainably.

    Did you say moringa fertilizer?
    If so where did you buy it?
