  • NPK's are lower with organic because organics don't break down as quickly as chemical nutes do. Also, unless you flush the living hell out of it, you get an after taste using chemical nutes. It's just a matter of preference. They both work.

    Have a nice Labor Day weekend.
    Organic nutes proudly display the word Organic somewhere on the label. Typically organic nutes have the NPK ratios of 3-0-6 or 1-2-2 or 5-0-0 while chemical nutes have ratios of 0-12-10 or 10-0-0, or 9-50-10 in the case of your Cha Ching.
    Sorry it's taking me a while to get back. Been busy with work stuff (growings only a hobby, not a full time gig). Trying to get out of town for my niece's wedding in San Diego. Being self-employed is a PITA sometimes, as is this 420 character limit.
    He's around 62 now and has lived for the last 15 years in an apartment building for people with brain trauma.

    At any rate, just use one of the Koolblooms. Koolbloom is chemical, not organic, and you don't want to have an episode of nute burn. You have to be careful when using chemical nutes. Organic, not so much. This year I've switched to 100% organic. (Bio Bizz & Nectar for the Gods (formerly Harvest Moon)).
    Hi .... I wasn't implying your sons arm looks feminine. :D. You seem to have come back well from your coma. I have a very good friend (actually he's the main reason I grow) who was in a bad car accident in the 70's. In a coma for 2 weeks. Had to literally start over just like you did. Changed his life completely. He never became the man he once was again.

    As a guide, I give my bigger plants (7' high, 6' diameter) about 4 gallons of nute mix & my smaller plants (5' high, 4' diameter) about 2.5 gallons of nute mix. I don't measure water on the water only days, I just give them a good soaking depending on the temperature.

    Good luck (last post for now)

    Wait another 2 -3 days, water only, then wait 2-3 more days and use the large ratio of 2 teaspoons of Koolbloom to 1 gallon of water or 10 teaspoons in your 5 gallon bucket. Depending on the number and size of your plants, you may need to use multiple buckets. Keep using full strength Koolbloom every 4-5 days until just before harvest. Flush if you're in the flush camp or just plain water only the last week or so.
    #1. OK, I'll try multiple posts to answer.
    First time you use Koolbloom, use the lesser ratio of 1 teaspoon Koolbloom to 1 gallon of water. Get a 5 gallon bucket, fill it with water and add 5 teaspoons of Koolbloom. 2-3 days later water. 2-3 days later use 1.5 teaspoons of Koolbloom to 1 gallon of water or 7.5 teaspoons in your 5 gallon bucket.
    Never mind, I figured it out.

    BTW, your ink looks nice. April 9, 2011 is obviously of some great importance to you. It's my youngest daughter's birthday as well.
