  • Patent number: 11825788
    Abstract: A method for promoting the accumulation of secondary metabolites of cannabis is disclosed. The method comprises the step of adding an irradiation of green-yellow light, which has a peak wavelength at 505-590 nm, into the indoor growing environment of cannabis to improve the level of cannabidiol (CBD), secondary metabolites in cannabis. While maintaining the light intensity and other growth conditions, the yield and/or level of CBD, secondary metabolites in cannabis, can be increased by up to 11.04%.

  • Patent number: 11779020
    Abstract: A honey-based rooting gel composition and method of preparing the same are disclosed. The honey-based rooting gel composition comprises honey and symbiotic fungi such as Beauveria bassiana or Trichoderma koningii which increases plant growth and health, and may also contain a plant rooting hormone such as Indole-3-butyric acid (IBA) or other plant rooting hormones that promote root initiation, or natural rooting substances such as willow bark extracts that promote root growth. The use of honey provides an unexpected synergy to protect the cuttings from pathogens through the antibacterial and anti-fungal properties of the honey and benefits both plant and fungal growth by providing growth-promoting carbohydrates (mainly fructose and glucose) for both the plant and the germinating fungal spores.
