I am wondering what peoples favorite ferts are... give me a good idea of what to go and look for in good fert please?
Look for ferts that have components in chelated format. You should see listed EDTA, EGTA, etc. This prevents compounds combining into unusable and toxic salts.
For favorites, here goes:
Fish emulsion- don't care what brand
Botanicare Pure Blend Pro Grow
Cornucopia Bloom- hard to find, I hope it gets more common
BioBizz Top Max
Soil Syrup- good luck finding that one, lol! I had to order from Canada
Thanks stinkyattic thats a big help....
im using miracle-grow all purpose plant food its 24-8-16...i dont use it too often but i can say this i supplied the seeds to my friend for a kick back of a couple plants and he wasnt using it and his grow to about foot and a half and mines pushing 3 foot...how i use it dont hold me to this but i mostly use it in a spray bottle and spray the plants from the bottom of the stem to the top bud(i do this most often) i also sometimes mix a gallon of it with water and feed the roots...if you use this feed you wont have to worry about bugs getting into your soil and messing with the roots because it has boric acid in it..but you got to to remember that you need to stop about a week or two before its ready to be picked so you wont be smoking the feed
24-8-16 if you use it in flower you are cheating yourself, because the high N is making the plant add leaf mass when it should be adding bud mass; yes it will be bigger but that does not mean yield is improved, your flower N # should be VERY VERY low. Oh and theres not nearly enough P in that fert for budding. Well there is but as a ratio, NO.
well i just used the bathroom but i guess i could produce alil p...jk what would you get that you can buy local that would be good for flowering?
There are some other brands that are still easy to find, like shultz and jack's classic.
Look up the ratios for a chemical pot bloom fert like Power Flower, and write them down, and take them to the garden center with you, and read all the labels- choos the one that is closest and still has micronutrients in it.
Miracle-gro for vegging and Canna A+B for flower and budding , works for me
where can i find some info on canna a+b?
StinkyAttic = always right. In fact, she might be my hero, not positive... but its possible
