    The best new product, why it could be better, why it won't, and it looks like a toilet seat

    Dr. Russell Sharp reviews the Maxi Bright Maxi LED Pro TS 40W horseshoe under-canopy light, calling it the best product he has seen this year and explaining how individual under-pot lighting can boost photosynthesis, improve transpiration and reduce fungal risks. He proposes a potential upgrade—combining the horseshoe LED with a horseshoe dripper to warm roots and cool LEDs—then explains why cost and safety (mixing water and electrics) make that unlikely. Russell contrasts this standout product with a recently over-engineered launch, invites listener feedback, and points listeners to Hydro Bros' social channels for demos and to utreema.co.uk for more information. https://eutrema.co.uk/

    Are your microbes dead? Free new service from Eutrema

    Dr. Russell Sharp explains why Eutrema no longer sells microbial products — from short shelf life and supply-chain dilution to competition with contaminated products — and why regulation alone won’t fix the industry. He also announces a free testing service at Eutrema HQ in Lutterworth to verify whether microbial products contain the live, correct organisms claimed, and reminds listeners that Eutrema manufactures its own unique fertilizers and biostimulants. https://eutrema.co.uk/shop/pesticides-organic/chitosan-biofungicide/
