Bat guano is a very good fert for outdoor grows/ organic soil mix ins and then just make "tea" with it to water them. Nice and frosty they will get. Nice and frosty.
will it cover flowering nutes completely? I'm trying to pull this off but it's getting to be so expensive I'm having a hard time seeing how it's gonna work out...

I'll have to look around some local shops to see if they have any bags of bat guano...

You should be able to find anything where you are at. I personally start with the High P guano around end of july 3-4 times way out from the stem. I also supplimented with a toutch of fish immulsion everytime. Some of the guano is expensive but you do not need a lot and it lasts a very long time without losing potency. Also makes the taste and smell incredible. One 12 lb box of Budswel lasts me 3 years for flowering nutes. They make a tea too. I just don't like making my own teas because it can be dangerous becxause you don't know exactally what ratios you are getting unless you have it tested, but I'm sure someone might lend a recipe. You will not regret it, especially for medication.

Whats the medium your gonna go with? How long ya been doin this for been hearing people say seeds better than clones for yield. Whats your take

I'm obviously an outdoor grower so soil is my medium....

my take on clones vs seeds is that I"m going to become a breeder, seeds are MUCH more ideal... every year your strains will evolve each year you breed them in your climate... there are hidden phenotypes to seeds, with clones you only get one pheno... and if you like the strain a lot... you can't preserve it as effortlessly as you can with seeds...

as far as the seeds better than clones for yeild... I don't know... I start seeds indoors... wait for them to sex... take clones and put them outside... my clones are fresh, not years old.... but since they are already sexed they will grow faster than the seedlings.. so I see no reason why seed starts outside would grow faster/yeild more than fresh clones...

Yea I hear was talken to pops another old school norcal kid. Told me he used mushroom compost as well in the soil when he grew. He said he fed twice a week bacck in the day with stuff called rapid grow. And somethen about bein high in nitrogen.


And then for flower he would use superbloom not sure if you or anyone else ever herd of it. He said it worked good. He also mentioned seeds are easy to start. Just get a 2 inch cub with some soil and put them under a light with water ya?
