"the Easy Way"

 

 

 

 

Our version of "Filamentous Identification for Dummies"!!!

We have had tons of people ask us to train them on how to perform a Filamentous Identification. After seeing thousands of sample, you start to learn a few tricks.

Remember, the most important part in performing the filamentous identification is in learning which process changes to make to the plant based upon the analyses.

Getting every single filament in the sample with the "correct" filamentous identification is not as important as figuring out what is wrong with the plant.  What is going on  that is making the filaments grow out of control, how to fix it and run the plant the most efficiently is really what is critical!

We have a few tricks up our sleeve that can make it a bit easier to decide what is wrong, which filaments are present and more importantly, how to fix the plant long term!!!
