...Which brings me to another question(s).
Are there ways to get faster increases minus fertilizers? I know you can cut, break or split a rhizome. I've only split from mothers' so I don't really know if cutting segments means your going to get increases to just "pop-up" from the new cutlings. Obviously some just increase better given the right conditions...

How do these commercial farms produce so many? is it just father time, fertilizing, soil, and mass division?

I swear i look this stuff up, but the Google gods truly don't have every detail, especially with mass production.

I know how to beef mines up, so spare the 6-10-10 talk and the alpha pellet use...unless that's the only secret, if one for the matter.
Gimme it and I'll grow it!
