Amino Acids
Amino acid, any of a group of organic molecules that consist of a basic amino group (―NH2), an acidic carboxyl group (―COOH), and an organic R group (or side chain) that is unique to each amino acid.
The remaining two bonds of the α-carbon atom are generally satisfied by a hydrogen (H) atom and the R group.

Amino Acid Study Conclusion
It can be inferred that L-methionine increases the chlorophyll content of plants and contributes to the saving of energy, thus boosting the plant yield in lettuce.
L-methionine led to significant increases in observed physiological factors in lettuce leaves at lower concentrations because at high concentrations it affects auxin uptake, which can kill plants.
In brief, L-methionine at a concentration of 0.2 mg/L showed the best effect on the growth of lettuce plants.
Amino Acid Application to Cannabis
Applying a general Amino acid product may have limiting benefits as the results indicate that specific amino acids needs to be studied as there may only be a limited number that could show plant benefits.
Also, the application rates are another important consideration since high rates have been shown to have impacts on plant hormone pathways and could result in plant death.
If you are going to use them, do so carefully and in moderation.

Simply the best information out there
Short, sweet and simple please don’t change the way you do things
Would you consider longer videos? These are great but I’m left with questions about areas of interest that didn’t get touched upon. Such as when to add Amino acids? What about tech grade aminos, and would it be better to add them along side something else? Also foliar sprays with amino acids? There are just many questions and topics down all of these avenues, and I feel that a discussion or Q and A type lesson could be better rounded. Thank you
U are awesome dude
Glycine and glutamic acid
If you need activate super boost option for Trichoderma spp. grow on a plant roots I highly recommend use amino acids.
Completely useless explanation
And where does this happend in nature? Topical hormones changing spray?
Man i love your content
Amino treatment by house and garden is the best
