I have to wonder about the implications. Will it delay maturity/harvest? Will it affect curing? If leaf senescence is delayed, will it be harder to get the usual benefits of flushing? Will flavor and smell be affected? Longer shelf life-what will be different? Ideas? -granger

There are no best practice with the use of Phospholipids - u can find many scolar papers on the topic-

They are a part off the cell walls and make transport of proteins and other cell content possibol.

They are also part of the plants signals, ergo u find diff isoforms of Phospholipids in
differnet enviroments and tissues.

In addition to fats, phospholipids, eicosanoids, and terpenoids, the lipid
extracts of plants and animals also contain steroids, molecules that are derived
from the triterpenoid lanosterol

I'm considering adding it to my high P-K ACT that I apply in week 3 and 5 or 6 of 12/12.

Hello there I find this thread to be very interesting, I don't mean to hijack but a quick question what is meant by "high P-K ACT"

Thanks in advance and please excuse my abupt intrusion.

Peace

Yes. High Phosphorus, Potassium Aerated Compost Tea. Oh, and BTW, I am making mods to my room so all I have going right now is mothers. I brewed a 4 gal. batch of ACT and I wanted something close to a 1-1-1 mix. For the P, I used 2 tsp. of Lecithin granules that I spun in my blender and emulsified it into a qt. of water. No ill effects on plants, and didn't behave weirdly in the brew, FYI. -granger

Anyone have results on Lecithin in a foliar spray?

The science suggests that it has micro's and other valuable properties.

I have some on the way.

But I am unsure how much to use.
