Did it help at all and leave it in boiling pot or water with?
You're replying to a six year old thread from someone that hasn't posted in a couple years about something that is a waste of time.
Why would you believe there is any validity to this nonsense? You seem to want to believe it does some sort of magic rather than look at it from an objective scientific point of view.
It's just the decades old "Boil the roots" nonsense revamped and upgraded to instead just pouring boiling water into your pots. Probably because it's easier than shaking all the dirt off of the rootball before plunging it into a pot of boiling water.
I can't believe there are people that keep believing in this stuff.
Just keep your plants healthy from start to finish by not overfeeding them, give them good light, and you'll get the best harvest you can get. Boiling roots, 48 hours of darkness, and all that other stuff is just nonsense thought up by stoners without any background in any of the sciences. In other words it's just made up.
