 Tappin Roots 
#711216 - 02/03/14 10:36 AM (10 years, 10 months ago) |

Started using a new additive called Tappin Roots which is an acid derived from dandelions from what I understand. Seems to be pretty nuts as a root simulator. Heard it causes rapid regrowth after taking cuttings. Anyone else tried this stuff yet?

Ok I found it. It seems like horseshit. Just another one of those websites that says "This is the best thing ever, it'll make your plants grow golden dicks and supermodels will flock to your doorstep. triple your yields for no reason at all!"
No information on what actually is in it or HOW it's supposed to help your plants, just page after page of sketchy assurances that it does.

Your so fucking stupid. Who cares what it's made of if supermodels will flock to my doorstep. Damnit I'm running out and buying a case right now.
All hail the power of the dandelion!!!

Give us some results! Did you actually notice anything life-altering, or were your plants healthy like they always are? Did it save dying clones and bring them back or produce a huge burst of new vegetative growth like they claim? It's rad that someone on here has actually used it so we don't have to just conjecture!
And most importantly, how many supermodels?

I got a demo bottle at the San Francisco hydro convention. I wasn't sold on it after trying it so I myself don't use it. (and the stuff at conventions is always extra strength to get you sold on the product.)

Excelleratur from House and Garden works well. I noticed the roots hitting the bottom of my pots way faster after transplanting after I started using it.

Sounds like I wont be trying BioRoot out. Although I don't really like many products from GH to begin with.

My d's look healthy but this is my first run on that strain and I'm new to using tappin roots in general. They look very healthy and are filling in nicely. Any bit as good as the rest of the sister plants in another spot using a whole different line. I added some to my clones and even my poppies I'm trying to start indoors. Only time will tell.

I would hope it's cheap if it's derived from a plant that people literally try to get rid of.

Yes but the stuff made from them is for rooting and because they are so good at rooting that may be why they are such a pest.

And kelp. In summation feed your weed weeds and it'll grow like a weed.

Meh, I'll stick with excellerator. I find that there isn't much need for all these additives and shit.
Do let us know how it works though.

Hey Max, thanks for stopping by! Always cool to see a representative come in for some discussion.
I'm wondering if you can explain to us what exactly you claim the product to do, and what the active ingredients are that do fancy things? Right now it kinda seems like you're saying "it does everything good and nothing bad and it does it all by magic!"

Wait a minute... a quart is enough for 1 or 2 plants?
Oh also I was wondering if Roots Excelurator is an alternative to hygrozyme? They don't say much about what it is or what it does.

Two totally different products. Hygrozyme is a enzymatic cleaning solution for growing. It helps keep dead material from accumulating, by breaking them down.
Excelurator promotes root growth. And it WORKS!!

Cool thanks. That excelurator shit is the most expensive thing you can use on your plants that I know of. Wonder what it is.
Kind of generous to offer a quart of Tappin' roots if he is the actual creator. I'm guessing the good for 1 or 2 plants sample is not the same as the free quart he's offering. Although the whole thing seems suspicious to me and I don't want to be the first to give him my address.

Super expensive, but at an application rate of 1ml per gallon, it lasts a long time.

I totally understand your concern about giving you address.
If you would like i can send it to your local hydro-store just give me the name of the store and what Allis you would like me to address the quart to.
We want you to be able to see how well the product works.
Thanks
M

No an 8oz free sample is enough to do one or two plants, with a quart you can do a lot more.
And unlike roots execrator Tappin' Roots is for all stages and can be used as a 1 part nutrient. And its also made i C.A off of Native species of plants and is cost effective unlike
Roots Excel. Tappin' Roots dose much more than roots its veg. Flower and Supports plants natural functions.
Check it out do a side by side with root excel.
Thanks
M.
Can you give us more exact info on what you are claiming it does? And what is it made out of? What plants? This all seems pretty vague.

Up top he said giant kelp and willow extract, so probably a similar recipe to root excel. There's a couple warehouse growers who buy a couple 5 gallon jugs at a time. I'm assuming it's some pretty hot shit.

You do realize that doesn't answer our question even a little bit, right? If anything it makes it worse.... you're saying it has basically NO nitrogen, phosphorus or potassium, but it's the single best product to ever hit the market and despite the fact that it has NO nutrients in it, it'll magically make all your plants triple in size?

Faceless and indescript advertising: 0

Not saying it doesn't work or does nothing because it probably does at least help a little but, overall, bad PR.

I put the white ends of my green onion in a glass with water and a couple drops of TR a few days ago and its about ready to hit some soil. Not like I haven't done this with just tap water but it did out grow that glass pretty quick.

Eh my clones, poppies, and green onion all seem to like it fine. I'm mostly impressed with the roots coming out of that grocery store scallion. I'll have 30 some odd blue cheese starting to veg in a couple days I'll do a side by side with root excell, tappin roots and nothing. Grow journal soon to commence.

Good luck with your side by side hope you like our product.
Thanks for trying it out you can foliar as well.
Hey macs, I tried a sample bottle and am really impressed the the growth rate from my mothers and clones. My only problem is that when you use 8 tsp per gallon, this stuff becomes very expensive. I purchased a quart for $25 and it will only treat 24 gallons! ouch. If I want to continue to use the product I'll have to purchase the 5 gallon for $319 plus $60 for tax and shipping. Comes out to $19 per quart. But it's still expensive when used at 8 tsp per gallon.

Yes its for all stages so it roots,vegs,flowers so instead of buying a 3 part nutrient you buy one. also only in the flower stage dose it require 8tsp. On mothers and cuttings. Its 4-6tsp.
If you foliar Tappin' Roots it goes a lot further..
Thanks
Macs
Wait so now you're telling us it's an actual nutrient? I thought this was just a booster and supplement.

And what's with the claim of it being a 30 year old blend? Are you aging it? That's kinda confusing.

And no answer to Harrys question. This all seems like snake oil. I'm not saying it wont help or do anything. But as a complete nutrient, that sounds dubious.

He's ignored probably 9 out of 10 questions I've asked in this thread. Basically the questions that expose it as bullshit. It's a one-part nutrient, Hawk! With an NPK of .01-0-.01 you know it'll grow that tasty chronic!

Hey guys, let's be fair now, maybe he's a plant-growing savant genius and just has poor reading comprehension skills, and is too forgetful to answer these highly important questions?
Always gotta hook up a brother with the benefit of the doubt. 
I like how he stopped offering the free quarts as soon as he got some more flak though.

Macs clearly joined just to chime in he's not a regular here. Sure it would be nice to get answers but he's probably not checking his new account often if at all anymore. Even so go ask the dutch what they put in their snake oil and see how quick they ignore you. The guy was basically ostracized right out of the chute. I would have bailed on this conversation too.

The stuff works well on my plants in veg. BUT I was also using roots excel,humic and fulvic acids,kelp and hygrozyme with it. They need to make it more concentrated because at 8 or so teaspoons per gallon, $25 per quart is too expensive. Ill stick to pure blend pro for now.

Sorry Guys been in Holland all i can say is well you can shoot me down as much as you would like. But the proof is in the pudding so before you call it snake oil try it if you like it use it if you don't well then don't use it.
I offered free quarts but you did not take advantage you preferred to call it snake oil instead
so you got to do what you got to do.
But i recommend going to Tappinroots.com and check out our store locator there is a reason why we sell in so many store and are one of the top selling products in Nor-cal.
Best of luck
Thanks
You say all of this, but you don't answer any of our questions about it. This is what makes us hesitant.

I thought i was pretty on top of it if you look in past posts.
i just read all the posts in this thread cuz i was interested in your product but no you didnt really answer any of their questions. It also sounds like your product is on the expensive side since you gotta use it at 8 teaspoons and if people are gonna shell out 25 bucks a quart (+shipping if your buying it online) than you could atleast answer their questions.

Check it out this site in Washington state shows concentrations of heavy metals in nutrients. Here's Tappin Roots page

Yeah first instinct is stuff like mercury, lead and cobalt are bad but they are present in most sweeteners and even budswell I think had something questionable in it. Maybe the plants process and stabilize those radioactive bits?

If I may ask what is the purpose behind things like cobalt and arsenic? I know most nutes have some but don't know what benifit they serve directly.

It's probably naturally occurring in the ingredients.
And he still hasn't answered questions regarding it being a complete nutrient, despite it's low nutrient concentration.

Nope pretty sure, especially if it's any kelp or anything coming from a sea, it's probably going to have radioactive metals in it. They are indeed naturally occurring for the most part and so long as they're not isolated and concentrated I'm pretty sure neither you nor the plants would ever notice a difference. The ocean is a very large percentage radioactive metals on its own (comparatively to the whole thing, anyway), but that's without Fukushima leaking toxic waste into it for 2 years straight, and still to this day.
I'm not sure on the details but something about how it integrates in an ecosystem naturally prevents the sheer mass of it from frying our DNA beyond recognition. I bet Harry could give you a better explanation of it, being one of the resident scientists. I just know that it's overall harmless in the proper ratios.

hey hawk not trying to sound like an asshole here but can we ban macs and close this thread, cause if the guy was even half way legit he would have answered atleast half of the question asked to promote a real product that works instead of just ignoring people question who are trying to learn about his product to see if it would be something they need, instead of just saying this stuff is great and is some secret recipe and trying to push snake oil to make a quick buck of of new people who dont know better.

Our rather buy the product or accept the free samples, try the product, and then comment.
Ban a newbie and close a thread they didnt start? I (the op) started this to talk shop with other growers about a product. Everyone needs to stop berating the guy and get experienced with tappin roots before commenting on a thread about using tappin roots. Not trying to sound like an asshole? Holy shit.
I have 2 personal sample bottles left ill give to the first 2 people who shut the fuck up and try it since im clearly the only one here who has fed this to a plant.

None of those three metals you named are radioactive aside from some VERY rare isotopes. The only radioactive isotope of cobalt is synthetic. I'm not sure what you're getting at.

Totally, the product itself and the amount of information we were able to get about it in this thread really have nothing to do with each other, and I'll certainly not bash the product itself. This thread isn't really good PR for the company after what all has been said and done in it, but that's not why the thread was created either, so, eh. I still haven't seen more than one or two people come in and actually talk about their results with it, so that opportunity needs to remain open for those who would.
I understand some ridiculous things were said, and some important questions weren't answered but to get all in a fuss and request the thread to be closed? Meh.

It's 4 pages of trash talk essentially. We seem like a bunch of pessimistic cunts. I don't know macs personally nor am I that ecstatic about the product to need to defend it it just blows me away how quickly people like to start complaining. Quote:

Cobalt was the radioactive bits that I was referring too. Not saying I think I'm going to get radiation poisoning from feeding my plants. Just curious as to the what and why. Exactly what I'm talking about with quick to complain or get that attack in. Pessimism dudes chill out.

I think you are being a little sensitive about it. In my opinion, we are criticizing a product. And that criticism seems crucial, especially considering the vague nature of it, and how it should be applied. We have heard so many different claims about the product, that the harsh criticism it is receiving is warranted.
So I wouldn't see why he would need to be banned, or the thread closed. And I'm not a mod anyways.

I'm sorry man, but your explanation just don't hold up at all. It's not a one part nutrient solution if you are just relying on nutrients in the soil. A one part complete nutrient supplies the plant with both macro and micro nutrients.
It's also called a catalyst. Not "catalos".
Can you please explain to us HOW it is a catalyst. By what mechanism is it working?

He doesn't know any of the science behind it. He claims at one point that the product helps the plant utilize the nutrients in the soil, and then states that it contains both macro and micro nutrients.
He is either not an employee of the company and is just a troll. Or the product is just bullshit, and he is trying to make it all important.

I harvested that run and have determined that the tappin roots did show a lot of the smaller web network of roots but not large rhizomorph like roots. The plants harvested did not grow as big as the ones with root excel but I still like to use it in foliar sprays and in nute mixes for all my youngest plants to encourage that feeder root growth early on.

I've met the owner of Tappin Roots both at the San Fran Max Yields show and at the Long Beach one, and his name happens to be Mac, so I wonder if it's actually him.
