Blood' y Bone Meal??'s

I bought some MG Organics blood and bone meals, then noticed they 'aren't formulated' for indoor grows.
I don't know nuthin' about these and would appreciate some enlightenment. I'm thinkin' I can use them sparingly, but have no clue as to the best ways to go about this. The blood says 12-0-0, the bone, 6-9-0.

Should I just mix X amount into the top few inches when I'm doing my final TP, or is tea used?
I'll gladly cough up a rep if someone can ease me into this . . . or should I just take it back. I'm dealin' w/2 gallon planter, soil.
Thanks

Specifics? http://www.miraclegro-organics.com/bonemeal.htm

I use both of them and like them both a lot. I just mix some of the 12-0-0 into my soil when I transplant in veg. And then I use the 6-9-0 in flower and I just mix some into the top few inches of soil. Easy as that, I never burned the plants ever with this method. Good luck

Ok, when you say you "just mix some" what's the value of "some"? How big are your planters?
In tsps or tbls, cups, etc, if possible . . . not a metric man yet.
Thanks.

I have a 12"x12" container that I believe is about 5 liters or1.32086026 US gallons haha. I added about a 1/4 cup maybe a little less to the top of the soil and mixed it in for the bone meal. And for the blood meal I added in a little less to the soil mix to prevent it from burning the younger ones. I have noticed that the plants really start to take off once the roots hit the blood meal. I hope that answers your questions

Yeah, it did answer my concerns. I just wanted to be fairly sure that IF I mixed a few TBs of these meals into my soils at final TP, nothing horrible would happen, and I might not see as much yellowing as I normally do.
Sounds like this could do the trick.
Thanks again/F

I use blood meal and LOVE it. Molasses and blood meal are all i use in veg stage. I start them in small containers with no nutes...then when transplanted into a 3 gallon container...thy are getting transplanted into a pre-mixed blood meal soil.

I too mix it into the first 2 or 3" of soil...and probably about 1/4 of a cup. (though i kinda just grab some blood meal and sprinkle it in...don't actually use measuring cups)

I just did a grow in a 2 gallon pot myself with MG Organic bone meal. Stuff worked like a champ. Used 1 tbsp of the bone meal to 1 gallon soil. Others seem to use more, but it worked fine for me.
