I've done most of my growing research on hydro so I have very little knowledge about soil grows and outdoor.
How do you feed the plants? Right now they're babies so I'm just misting with water, I didn't go through the trouble to PH balance it because I was going to move them outside anyway and its just kind of an experimental thing but it got me thinking.
There's more than one way to deliver nutrients to plants in soil? I've read about putting blood meal at the bottom of the hole before planting but I don't quite understand it.
So there are nutrients in the soil and nutrient fertilizers that you can mix into the soil.
I thought you weren't supposed to fertilize new seedlings, all they need is water, heat and air? So if you mix stuff into the soil before planting, fdgjdhgfghghj?? so confused.
I don't care about being organic as long as it works, what is good to mix into the soil before planting?
can you mix in too much and cause nute burn?
whats up with slow release nutes?
how do you feed your plant after it's used all of the nutes in the soil? How can you tell that you've reached that point, generally when is that point?
The other way is water soluble nutes that you use when watering? What is a good way to do that and how often is that required.
If plants are outdoors, they'll be rained on, how can you feed plants if the soil is already too wet?
People think hydro is complicated, wow. Soil seems like a completely different language. I know most of you will probably just tell me to keep reading but any help would be much appreciated, thanks.
