Neptunes Harvest: Fish and Seaweed Fertilizer

Mayor of Bearton · Feb 3, 2015

Hey everyone getting ready to germ tonight, finally got everything together for the most part. I bought some of this fertilizer today and I was wondering if this is more of a vegging fert or flowering fert? The label says 2-3-1 which leads me to think its a flower booster but honestly I'm trying to make this as easy as possible on myself once the beans sprout. I have Fox Farms organic soil mix which I keep hearing that this soil will give you 3-4 wks of vegging without even fertilizing. So any and all feedback will be greatly appreciated just wanna get my ducks in a row so I can do this to the best of my ability. Thank you.

I use it to feed the soil bennies, not the plant.

Once a week I do this (I call it my soil boost):

Per gallon:
5 ml Neptune's Harvest Fish and Seaweed
5 ml Earth Juice Hi-Brix Molasses
5 ml Grow More Bio-Cozyme

That works out to 1-1.5-2
ppm is 26 N, 40 P and 53 K

Costs me $.11 per gallon

You would have to use more to feed the plant and it would cost more than a typical fertilizer.

Some of my girls getting the soil boost, Recipe 420 soil and Dr. Earth Flower Girl, week 7.

I don't understand what you mean by soil bennies not familiar with the term but I'd like to. Whatever you got going seems to be working awesome those pics looked delicious almost ate my computer lol. Thanks for your reply. Are you familiar with miracle gro organic fert? I saw a bag and was looking at it the rating is something like 7-2-1 or 7-1-2 would this be a good fert for me? Just trying to figure stuff out before hand. Thanks again talk to you later

By "soil bennies" he means, the beneficial microorganisms that live within the soil. With true organics, you're not feeding the plant, you're feeding the soil. You may need to re-think a lot of what you've been taught about growing pot, or look at it from a different perspective. Instead of dealing with bottled nutes, NPK ratios, and brands like "Miracle Gro" (stay clear away from any products like these) - BUILD your own soil from scratch. It's fun, fairly easy, and works insanely well. Spend a couple hours reading through the following threads/links. I know it may take some time to read, but it's worth it!!!

ROLS (recycled organic living soil) - https://www.rollitup.org/t/recycled-organic-living-soil-rols-and-no-till-thread.636057/
BuildASoil (an excellent overview of the concept) - http://buildasoil.com/pages/the-complete-system

Once you have a better understand that you need to create a customized/perfected (amended) soil like this, all you'll need to do is add plain water. Yes, you can add other things like AACT's, SST's, etc.... but you'll still get fantastic results with a soil mix that you make from scratch with only plain water! It's amazing - I'm about a month into veg with my first ROLS, and haven't ever seen such healthy plants!

There are a lot of helpful growers here that have created a lot of "stickys" in the organic section of rollitup - take some time to read or skim through them!

Really swamped right now Mayor but sounds like this is your first time growing.

Best advise I can give is KEEP IT SIMPLE.

Google Dr. Earth Indoor Schedule

I followed that my first time and had really good results.

For soil, find what's local for you. Ocean Forest will get you thru a month of veg. EB Stone Recipe 420 is another.

When u move to flower is when you start feeding because the soil is exhausted.

Good luck

Thank you that's exactly what I'm interested in I do have a couple books on the organic grow.

Another KISS option, I have not tried but hear good things:

Try to find products that are local for you.

btw, Dr. Earth is more likely to be in your local nursery than hydro store.
