Can someone recommend a good feeding schedule / type that is good for keeping mothers happy and heathy.

I've got a 6 month old mother in a 3 or 4 gal (largest size space will allow) that has produced many clones, and has been height adjusted several times.

What should I be doing to keep the cycle going? feedings / flushings / kilppings / etc.

thx in adv. - :thumbsup: - :jointsmile:

search and read the bonsai moms post..

nevermind.
here it is...

International Cannagraphic Magazine Forums - ALL ABOUT BONSAI MOMS/MUMS (http://www.icmag.com/ic/showthread.php?t=31919&highlight=bonsi)



feeding regime for a mom, I think is to maintain health rather than pound the crap out of it with nutes...regular flushing and transplanting helps and enough nutes to keep healthy like I said. If you have gone six months your feeding must be ok. keep in mind that each plant may have different requirements.

I keep my ladies on a feeding schedule that gives a high-quality grow fert when I am trying to get them to stretch, then a heavy watering to the point of runoff or even a feeding with a weak bloom fert (for the P) when I am getting ready to take cuttings.
They root a big faster when there is not too much N in their tissues.
