what should i feed my plant

[tockaboy1006]

i'm new to the game and need advise on what i should feed my crop to get the best out of them. Is miracle grow all thats its made out to be .Does it contain all the nutrients my plants will need???

[phatsesh101]

i feed my plant, flies and little pieces of meat

good soil will do fine, the noob grow guide is a good place to start

Mine prefer fava beans and a nice chianti.
Gotta read man, your job is to research and the come back for clarification on specific issues.

What do sweaty goat nuts taste like?

[stinkyattic]

I dunno, I don't have any MG laying around the house to ask, sorry.

yeah man done a fair bit of research over the net got a brill site tells you stuff like this. 'In general, plants need the following materials in a water solution: - nitrogen, phosphorus, and sulphur for the construction of cells; - magnesium to manufacture chlorophyll; - potassium, calcium, and magnesium for osmotic processes; - water for growth, for the transport of nutrients, and for sturdiness; - iron, boron, copper, manganese, and zinc as building materials.' It tells you pretty much everything, I just wondered if any time served growers had info on products which contain these chemicals. if anyone is interested in the site go to.

the first link in stinkys sig is a good one for u

second there are alot of good nutes like bc, fox farm, general hydro, bc has a starter kit which is useful

[tockaboy1006]

If your gonna do something like this then you gotta give it 100% any shortcuts is just wasted smoke, you may aswell pull some nettles out the garden and tute on them. gotta ask tho what is bc short for?

You're planning a rockwool grow?
Hardest medium for a beginner IMVHO, and requires a TOTALLY unique approach plus pH/EC meters.
You live in UK; Canna nutes are impossible to fuck up and easy to find.

[phatsesh101]

bc nutes are from technaflora, i dont care much for awesome blossom though thats why i sub the beastie

[tockaboy1006]

didnt realise that rookwool was so hard, dont wanna run before i can walk. I was after the EC/PH testers there about £10 each or about $20 off ebay local to my area. 90% of my kit is home made, i was gonna use and ebb and flow system on a timer to feed my plants and have clay pellets in the base of my pots so the water would run off quickly without the soil filtering throught blocking my pipes and pump 'see pic attached'.

[stinkyattic]

Oh you are going to use the RW as starter plugs only and do the actual grow in HYDROTON.
It's super easy. Run your Cannazyme with your nutes and take what they say about pre-soaking the pebbles and RW to pH 5.8 SERIOUSLY!!!!!
