Has anyone researched differences in cannabis roots, in order to clarify why some varieties like dry soil and others like more watering, while some like loose soil and others prefer heavier soils?
With landrace cannabis it is easier to guesstimate (dryer for Moroccan strains, wetter for Brazilian strains, for instance), but it would be easy to tell of hybrids which root type is prevalent and adjust the soil mix accordingly.
Clearly plants that have evolved in desert conditions and jungle conditions have different likings. However, has anyone linked it to differentiation in their root system?
Just wondering, because for me that would be the next step in optimizing growth.
I have the book Roots Demystified, by Robert Kourik, but it is not specifically about cannabis.
Cheers
