Okay, I was reading that you for VEG you need a ratio NPK ratio of 2-1-1, so somthing like 30-15-15. I was looking at my miracle grow box and it says 15-30-15. So I guess I wont use that or will it work. I hear so much conflicting advice. What is the right ratio, what brand should I be using for VEG.

Okay, same question for Flowering. What is the ratio. What Brand?

I will keep surfing the net to find more info!

For veg cycle, I only use Bat Guano 5-1-1.

As a tea, it feeds and lays a thin layer of guano silt over the soil top and feeds with additional waterings. Since it is all organic, it will not hurt your plants.

As a soil additive, it works well also. Other people use seabird buano.

I know in Jamaica, land of some of the finest herbs, they use bat guano as well. The Jamaicans turned me on to that stuff.

Yaa Mon :)

Most Confusing... Well I did many searches on fertilizer. All kinds of conflicting answers. so here it goes:

1. Some are Fert-ing every watering, some every other water, some etc.. Its all over the place. What the hell, every book contradicts the other book. They all basically say for VEG you need NITROGEN..

2. Some people are swearing by MG, most say don't use it. Seems like you dont want to use it. So I am going to stay away from it.

3. Seems smart to use ORGANIC.

Man I just want to go the nursery and get something that isnt gonna burn my stuff up during VEG. I then want to get something for bloom with a high PHOSPHURUS. I dont plan to Hit em hard I would start with 1/4 the reccomned dosage and move gradually up
