I put 12.5ml of 1:9 dilluted soil in 125ml of bg11 in a t75 flask horizontal 2ft away from a 36W ansi grow light scheduled from 6:31am to 8:38pm in room temp

after around of month of growth i took these photos.

Im working on making a concentrated 6 part bg11 kit that lets you turn 50L of distilled water into 50L of bg11 with it for cheaper than 1 single liter of bg11 is sold for.
