Short answer: Aspirin will help trigger a stress response in plants that boosts their own natural defenses against bacteria, fungi and viruses (Google 'Systemic Acquired Resistance' or 'SAR aspirin'.) I also believe from my own experience that the stress response kick-starts root growth, but I don't have a citation handy.
I forgot to mention that I also add a couple of teaspoons of Physan or similar.
