The man who ran the plant was very knowledgable and understood what I was trying to achieve with the Mittleider Grow Boxes. He sold me all the components and I still have some of them.

Which one is best? What is the necessary degree […]

Q. Does anyone else have a hard time finding the ingredients in the M method? A. We struggled with this issue for many years until Dr. M and I: (1) simplified the Pre-Plant formula and (2) decided to buy, mix, package, and sell the Micro-Nutrients ourselves on the Foundation website. Now for the Weekly Feed […]
