you not being a jerk.... The bong water seened like a good idea at the time(I was high) I used it twice(2 TBS) when I added some nutes and a lil egg water to regular water(DON'T TRY) but I always check the ph of the water before I do anything... I found out that the sugar water method( 1Tbs of sugar to a liter) the ph was 6.6-8
The bong water was stupid idea I admit it,
As far as all of my grandma nutes I've had them for so long, I have a method that works pretty well
*I don't fert until each plant is at least 12in tall... I start with standard soil....by 12in they will show slight signs of a def.
*I changed pots and use Miracle grow soil that does the trick they get really healthy from it
* Wait two or three more weeks then start the triple Phosphate when I see some pre-flower, I crush the fertz up 1 tsp and use a 2 gallon for 4 plants in large containers, I might used a lil miracle grow plant food( for zinc and other minerals) but about 1/4 of a tsp
*Wait two weeks add a lil bone meal 1tsp to a 2 gallon and 1 tsp of garden lime for Cal.
*Wait and see what happens( any def or nut burn)
*About 1 1/2 weeks later this what I did new this time use Schultz plant food 5 drops per gallon(it says 7 for a liter I don't do that)
*Flush because by this time I want to make sure there isn't any burn ( might even add a lil lime 1/4 tsp)
*By this they look real nice* (at least to me) most people use too much...I rather use to little when your dealing with strong shit
and now that I bought my two testers (water and soil) I know what my ph is....(everyone who grows should get some type of tester, I TEST EVERYTHING, before I add it to the soil)
From my younger experiences as a grower I know when it's TOO MUCH FERT...i don't even need a ph tester for that... But I'm learning when it is enough
Where I grew up we used to have a garden in the backyard(Grandma to old now to tend it) but we had...apple,cherry,plum,peach trees,all veggies, blueberry,rasberry bushes,strawberry,watermelon, and of course a grape,pumkin vines, lets not talk about darn flowers roses to herbs.......... but anyway all these fertz were left over after the years, I just figure since they are free and works so well in the garden they should do a hell of a job with WEED.... I just had to find a right way of using them, like I don't even keep the raw minerals in the water I just take the run off water and dilute it with regular water that works well for me...and the weed gets me really high so......:thumbsup:
But I stop using bong water.... reminds me of the time I used some piss and water and my friends almost killed me... lol it was for N
