  I’ll be honest, I really don’t need to increase the yield of my cherry tomato plants lol

    I’ll say! And they spread so virulently, too. Next thing you know, you’re selling dried cherry tomatoes on the local farmer’s market.

  (Nerd warning) So awesome to see strigolactones on lemmy. Any other strigolactone researchers out there? I mostly work on the receptor protein D14.
