    Wondering if you can overfert with organic fertilizers??

    Bat guano to be specific. One kind is high In N. The other is high in P. Im not talking about ridiculous amounts of overfertilizing but as long as you aren't a complete dumbass should you be safe??

    I'm wondering this too. And I'd also like to know if using the correct amount of Superthrive every time you water would be considered overdosing.

    Anything used in excess is harmful...

    Bat Guano however is very safe and gentle. Just dont be crazy with it.

    SuperThrive also is very safe. I have used everytime I water without incident.

    Yes, you can over fertilize with organics. If you're not sure about adding a new fert, but want to try it, add it at a reduced strenght than the directions on the box or bottle says. See how your plants react. If there is new vigorous growth, try adding a bit more to your next feeding.

    It also depends on what stage of growth you are at as well. Seedlings need next to nothing. The only thing I add to the water is Superthrive until they are showing good vegatative growth. On another note, I grow in soil, so the growing medium is rich enough to start out the plants.

    Please explain your setup, and how you are growing. The more info you give, the better we can help you with you question.

    Are you buying the Sunleaves brand of bat guano? If so these deposits where it is collected can be 100's of years old and older. This means that all of the harmful ammonia / nitrites are long gone. Bat guano this old is so gentle you could almost plant your plant directly into it. BUT DON"T TRY THAT!

    if its a liquid organic fertiliser and not a home made one then its definately harmful in excess

    excellent

    It is sunleaves brand. I am done with chemical fertilizers. Even if you give the right dosages you still run the risk of chem buildup in the soil that will bite you in the ass. Organic all the way from now
