greasemonkeymann said:

of course, nettles is some great stuff, but, and don't take offense to this, but that's sorta like "advanced" organics, I humbly suggest to you to get the basics first.In fact my very favorite teas to use are SSTs and a comfrey/dandelion tea.
good shit

greasemonkeymann said:

you don't believe that there are more difficult things to understand regarding organics? Microbial populations, bacteria vs fungi teas, relation of NPK and it's soil availibility, humus, wormbins, veganics, soil webs, mychorrizhae and it's relation to trichoderma?
Alright, that's cool,
SO, ok, your answer is YES, nettles is good for weed.

Epsom salt is magnesium bro, essential for life. If you REALLY want some fertile soil put some fulvic acid and apple cider vinegar in there. I grew some monster venus fly traps that could eat wasps lol. I sprayed the soil daily with diluted fulvic acid and ACV. You dont need all this fancy stuff just give nature an abundance of everything it needs to grow and it will do so.
