A Review on Miracle-Gro: Soil and Fertilizers
Well, shit. I can't really say much on this thread that I started -- I mean, I can't respond with the evidence to back my claims, not yet at least. I began another thread in the 'Indoor Growing' area.
The other thread was intended for the purpose of following the life of my plant, a female, that's currently in a 10/14 / flowering cycle. For the past month -- since the beginning of inducing the night cycles from a 24/0 vegetative -- I've been feeding it the 10-52-10. A fourth a teaspoon to a liter of water each feeding -- I feed it this way for two feedings, then skip a feeding for plain R/O water the next, and the cycle is then repeated. It loves it, honestly does. Now, I have a question regarding the NPK rating and what a rehashed OverGrow FAQs site says about calculating the proper NPK rating of water soluble fertilizers [ I'll supply the link below ].
The site states that, "as a general guideline, the N-P-K numbers can be roughly converted to elemental PPM. N, nitrogen is the only element to convert from the label at the ratio of 1 to 1. P2O5, phosphorus oxide, converts to elemental P, phosphorous at a ratio of 1 to .4. K2O, potassium oxide, converts to elemental K, potassium at a ratio 1 to .8. This demonstrates the radical difference between an N-P-K of 1-1-1 and an actual elemental ratio of 1-.4-.8."
The question is; wouldn't a water soluble concoction such as the 10-52-10 produce a true NPK rating of -roughly- 10-20.8-8?

I hear a lot of shit from both sides of the spectrum; on my left there's people saying Miracle-Gro is complete fucking garbage as a soil and fertilizer. While on my right there are those few people that say Miracle-Gro is 'all right', and a few that say it's great. Now, first I'll address some of the common fuck-ups regarding Miracle-Gro's famous, all-time favorite 'three month continuous feed' potting soil. "I burnt my seedlings Rating: 5
