He's definitely hit the nail on the head. Most of what we do is quite a hassle.....and risk, but nutes can make the difference, so for a compromise I use slow release foods in pellet form. No carrying hefty jugs of water, just sprinkle liberal amounts and they get what they want no matter how much it rains. The cool thing is that by the time flowering is just about done the slow release pellets have been spent and the plants begin to yellow out and flush themselves of all the excess just in time.. I was using......something cote......in the pink bottle......crap....brain fart...... Anyway, I switched over to "Dynamite" this year which has a good dose of all the micronutes the name brands like miraclgro lack and supposedly lasts longer. You can get it at the HD. Damn..I should be a salesman. IF ONLY IT WERE LEGAL...AAARRRGGGHH
