[/FONT][FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4]hi everybody, im new to the growing game and I need to find something to feed my plants so I bought Mircale-Gro water solbule all purpose plant food, even safe for veggies and fruits. The composition of the dry formula are as is: N = 24%, P = 8%, and there doesn't seem to be any information on the potassium content. I was wondering is this alright to give to my plants or should I buy some fish emulsion with 8% nitrogen?

Miracle grow is not good for 99% of the people growing this type of plant. There are many nutrients made just for this plant and those are the ones you should be using. Shultz Cactus food is a better choice then MG if you need to go that route.

will it turn make the plant poisonous or just simply kill it?

I took MG right back and bought some alaskan fish emulsion 5-1-1 and some of that shultz cactus plus with 2-7-7. Thanks for the help guys.

careful with the fish shit. It's high in one nutrient only and stinks to high hell too....lol

The cactus formula will do you fine, Once you get down growing you can try some good nutrients developed for growing this plant.

omg, my ionizer had a fun time trying to clear the stink of ass out of the room. As for the growing solutions meant for this plant, I don't want to mail order a package to my house with that reputation, however awsome it may be, to my house for legal reasons.

Mabye you should go into the user cp and remove your location.. Besides what are you afraid of ordering gardening supplies for.. hell even if your packages we're opened postal people would simply say "Oh, some old farts gardening supplies..." :)

good idea, wish there was some way to edit a past post. As for the gardening supplies, I'm torn. If the name is a huge I'd feel sick to my stomach waiting to see if I would get a question or not by a law offical.

You wouldn't AT ALL... the only that would cause the law to be involved in one of your shipments is if the contents were illegal. You don't even get in trouble if your seeds are confiscated by us customs, just a little note inside your package basically saying saying haha bitch we took your seeds call this number if you want to negotiate these actions.. as if you would.

There is nothing wrong with buying something from eBay. Does your government open all your packages? That's the only way they would know what you purchased. There are many Hydroponic stores in your country too. You can walk in and pick it up yourself.
