Hello –

I have a stained glass hosta I planted in the garden after having it indoors over the winter; has sparse leaves on it. when I planted it, there were no rots hanging down from its eye. I planted it with a healthy does of granular sea kelp and liquid root stimulator. What can I use to promote faster root development? Bone meal? Sea kelp? Periodic doses of liquid root stimulator? I don’t want to have to replace the plant. I appreciate any feedback offered.

Thank you,

Diana

Diana –

Kelp provides plenty of micronutrients to help against plant stresses and in my opinion is not used enough by organic growers. However, to stimulate root growth I suggest adding a root stimulator in liquid form that will provide the following:

• macro-nutrients
• trace elements
• organic compounds
• disaccharides
• beneficial microbes

I’ve provided links to two of my favorites below.
