Which is better during flowering? Plant food or ewc tea?

I was thinking of finishing off flowering using regular watering and ewc tea made from ewc, alfalfa pellets, and molasses. Going to apply the tea 3 times a week. Or should I stick to bi-weekly waterings with my plant food that is 10-52-10? Plants are in a mixture of compost, peat moss, chicken manure and garden dirt.

either one works from start to finish
i tend to just use the flowering food which is the same price as veg food

So, is flowering food like the 10-52-10 the same as veg food? I'm gonna try both methods on my plants.

No, this is the effin organic section. Either one will not work fine. Go back to the hydro section. That 10-52-10 just killed all the microbe life in your pots and sent your mycorrhizae into dormancy or death.

You misinterpreted my post , i clarified
no need for the use of the term "trolling"
you appear to have a chip on your shoulder about something

i feel no animosity towards organic growers , not sure why you feel this way about non organic growers

I didn't misinterpret anything. You're not an organic grower. You troll the organic section. You don't have the first clue about organics, but still feel the need to answer organic questions.

I'm sorry you feel there is a chip on my shoulder. I tend to think of it more as correcting your misinformation so you don't confuse anymore people with your nonsense.

If you would like to learn about organics, here is a list of resources you can start with.

1 i have never claimed to or would want to grow organics
2 i have never trolled the organic section , i have made 39 posts in the organic section in 5 years which is around 7 posts per year this information is clearly visible from my profile
this equates to 0.8% of my total posts are in the organic section ..

clearly you are mistaken with the trolling accusation or are stereotyping non organic growers maybe even mistaking me for another user,
or you simply have a chip on your shoulder

i hope you work out your issues

peace

thank you! my eyes bulged when he said 10-52-10....
And feeding three times a week with molasses will make the smoke shitty.... I LOVE molasses but at that interval it'll make the herb burn black, I guarantee it.

Trolling, trolling, trolling... keep them posts a trolling...

You don't see me posting organic stuff in the hydro section. I would appreciate it if you would have the same respect and courtesy. I don't care how many posts you have in the organic section, if you are not talking organics, it's a troll (sounds like 39 of them).

plus why the compost, EWC, chicken manure, and molasses? If you are using chems just use chems, if you want to go organic then you need to fully understand the relation between chemicals and organics, what you are doing is two conflicting methods here, and wasting money

And hammer strikes nail. If you are using chems, use chems. If you're growing organic, leave the chems out.

Help heal the planet, grow organics and be particular about your inputs. Don't be fooled by marketing.

Hey Pattahabi, I will read up on organics from the link you posted. I would like to go that way for sure.

Thanks greasemonkeymann. I read that you can feed with ewc tea as often as you want. So I thought why not give the girls the best and often. How often do you suggest I use the tea? I don't wanna be burnin black. Will I find the relation between organics and chems in the link?

Please read whatever you can get your hands on. Knowledge is power. Imo, there is no relation between chems and organics. I posted a few resources, and I'm always looking for new ones. If you can't find something your looking for, post it up and let's see what we can find.

I do not advocate pouring molasses on your plants. Hopefully, when we make an act the molasses is used up by the microbes before it hits the soil. Remember the molasses is to feed the microbes, not the plants.

Ive had good aand bad results from going chem to organics (years years ago) however a recent example is my wet dream,(blue dream x ob haze) it was a gift to me, she was grown in coco chems, what i did is flush the shit out of her, then strted with enzymes teas, then transplanted her with a couple aacts, shes doing good and is no longer a crack addict..
However, my experience from years ago, its not worth converting too organics late in flower, at this point your better off giving her her fix, all you cn do is prepare for your next grow. Which imo takes a full month with less then 200$ to get going! Start now!
