Comfrey is a great bio accumulater, topical healer and just a awesome multipurpose plant, I've got 6 Bocking14 plants in a raised bed planter. Most of mine goes to making compost for next years amendments. I get 4 to 5 cuttings a season and probably amass close to 50lbs.
Breaks down very quickly and becomes bio available quicker than most.
I give it out freely to those that want it.
my old lady's aunt turned me onto a comfrey salve that i put on everything. stuff is great.

Went out and chopped a mess of comfrey, gonna top dress the girls.
Some of the leaves are over 3' long...good stuff.
Oh and there's my pooch in the background...Max the 85lb killer Labradoodle.View attachment 4188514
Notice his lion like gait and his aggressive manner...He has the coolest personality and is crazy smart for a dog.
Just had him trimmed up, he's usually fairly bushy.

We had Sadie in our lives for over 15 yrs. Such a powerful love, got tons of great memoriesView attachment 4188526 I still shed tears each time I think of her last day.
I had a cocker spaniel for 17 years when I was kid. Named sadie. Awesome name

One of my Raindances. Great plants. I think I've grown out 5 or so females and they all lean to the Deadhead OG side, or at least I assume because they don't smell like Chemdog and they all have had a similar funk. The pipe with the panda poly rolled up behind it is 7' off the ground so this one was around 9' tall I'd guess.

Another Raindance. I would definitely keep this one indefinitely. Super funky aroma and beautiful buds and it looks like it will yield well too. Unfortunately all my plants got a phytoplasma infection so I'm not keeping any strains that got it. It didn't affect the Raindances too bad, but it affects some other strains bad enough for me to not keep any diseased clones around. Fortunately I've got another Raindance from my first pack that's almost as good as this one in looks and smell and I have another pack to go through. I'll F2 them and find this pheno again.

Anyone heard of these people bio-cat microbials? Bcmicrobials.com They sell pure microbes. Don't know the price points yet.

I've been doing research on the strains of microbes in the real growers recharge, and athena biosis. So far they are pretty much the same. Recharge has Glomes michrzyae which has a lot of good properties, including being aggressive against other fungus. Athena does not have any Glomes strains. Athena also has a lot filler material in it, but that's a different conversation.

What athena does have that recharge doesn't, is a strain called bacillus amyloliquefaciens, which is very interesting. This particular strain is the only one that I've read to give plants a higher tolerance to salts (which is something recharge claims), and it secretes a few very interesting enzymes. One being BamH1 which is a restriction enzyme, exactly similar to the types of restriction enzymes used in the cleaving of DNA for molecular engineering. What BamH1 does is help the plant to slice out genetic mutations and allow it to fix them. Same thing that scientists do in a lab when they insert new RNA.

Athena is kinda expensive, and I do not like the 36% filler material. That's why I'm bringing up Bio-Cat Microbals. They sell pure bacillus amyloliquefaciens. I was thinking I would buy some and add it with my recharge and it would be a more complete formula.

Just my two cents that I wanted to share with all of you. Maybe get everyone's thoughts.
