Watering with Watermelon Water

The Queenz of Kronik · #1 07-29-2009, 02:33 PM

I was wondering if watering a marijuana plant with the water from a watermelon would be okay to do. I have been doing some research and cannot find an answer. I have found juice is bad because of the high sugar content like apple or orange juice, and beer is good because of the barley, wheat, and hops. Yet nothing on watermelon water. I have done some research on watermelons and found that they have much of the nutrients needed for a healthy plant including: calcium, iron, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, and zinc. Other nutrients in a watermelon include: Vit. A, Vit. B1, Vit. B2, Vit. B3, B5, Vit. B6, Vit. B9, and Vit. C. It seems to me that it would work well perhaps mixed with plain water. If anyone knows an answer, please let me know or if not, your personal opinion would be helpful as well. If no one knows for sure, than I think I will do a little experiment and give it a try

I was thinking it might flavour the bud or change the type of bud produced.

Oh, I forgot to mention a few stats: Sugar content in a watermelon is only half of whats in an apple and the water content is 92%

ye i was about to say its mostly water i would give it a try, but it might attract gnats and shit. im interested to see what happens

The Queenz of Kronik · #7 07-29-2009, 04:25 PM

yeah, i already have a gnat problem before so im use to killin a couple every day. since its not in a main area, and currently the gnats are, maybe they're move over there

why cant you just water with normal water?

The Queenz of Kronik · #9 07-29-2009, 04:42 PM

i could, i do, and i am, im just wondering if it would change the end product at all or if it would harm the plant. if it wont harm the plant, then i would like to try it just to see what kind of a result i would get compared to plain water

jointluver- why did you vote that it would probably harm the plant? what is your reasoning?
