simple question I hope!
I have tried reading the web, searching and have rodales organic book on the way. I doubt I can find what I am looking for. I have a simple question I think. When I put together my soil for a water only grow I have all these amendments to add. I have the quantities for seveeral diferent soil mixes. Here is what I am lost on. How can I add them all at once, the NPK for veg and flower, and expect it to work as the plants need it according to the time of growth they are in? I am accustomed to feeding N in veg and P in flower, but according to the water only grow formulas I am supposed to add it all at once. Does the plant just take up the N in veg as dictated by the light and then when in flower it decides to take up the P? I will beleive this is so if some authority will say so. ty ![]() also if I am planning on not doing a water only grow should I not add any NPK amenments save for worm castings and composts and just rely on the teas to give the plant all that I need? ty!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |

that is chooses what to eat according to light cycle or stage of plant life. that is my best theory too. impossible to find on the net. |

It depends what you feed the plant. Most nitrogen fertilizers are readily(or very shortly -days) soluble. While most P ferts require a break-down period(weeks, months) before they're soluble.

this is interesting. you mean like mex guanos and shit are fast and bone meal is slow? or n breaks down fst and P does not. cuz oh shit that sucks. shit shit shit. lol.
I was hopin at least to use indonesian bat guanos for flower ferts. In a tea. Is a tea with p like bonemeal and indo bat guano not gonna work. Perhaps then topdressing now is a must. weird I never read this before. anybody got any good reading on the subject. I do just trust subcool by the way. just want to know more so I feel safe doing it. Last edited by dirt clean; 03-17-2009 at 12:06 PM.. |

I use veg:urine(my own, diluted with 10 parts water) and flower:tomato fertilizer.
