Today I'll be applying my first dose of liquid nute ever! Lol exciting right? So two plants are in different stages (more into flower than the others) but will be giving all the same dose of 20ml as recommended. The point of this thread though is if its alright to add liquid nute to pond water? I've been watering with pond water most of my grow..plenty of fish turtles frogs in it. Not once have checked ph but I'm assuming its fine since I've been using it for a bit

If you've been using it all year it should be ok. Maybe a little high in nitrogen.

If champlain up here didnt have blue green algae blooms every damn week id be sourcin from there and its essentially a big pond. Course last week one of the largest sewage treatment plants dumped SEVERAL thous gallons of untreated waste into champlain last week so id suspect thats high in N amongst other shat too im sure. GO ahead w the pond water. In nature amphibians are an excellent way to tell if a habitat is healthy or not. Sounds like a sound source of water to me my man. If folks did this kinda thing more often the world may be a better place.......im stoned atm.

Anyway i could talk you into using dry nutes? Or maybe just adding a jacks type product to help simplify this process for ya? Then again gorilla if it aint broke maybe we shouldnt fuk with it? Whats your thoughts?

Also VTM I've amended my soil pretty well at the beginning of the grow season..its reused from last years. Only reason I'm using liquid nutes is because I've never tried them..Wanna see if I can speed my flowering process up a bit and put on somemore weight you know:bigjoint:
