Supersoil which Guano should I use
- Thread starter ktech
- Start date
ah shit i guess i'll answer my own question. I did research and found supersoil needs guano ingredients dominant in P. So i guess the 1-12-1 is best. The high nitrogen guano would be too much N during the blooming stage.. and besides the worm casting takes care of the N during the veg phase.

The high n guano would be a good substitute for the bloodmeal, both are a slow release nitrogen... just not sure what the nutrient equivalent is between the two.
The Peruvian seabird 10-10-2 is a great all around type of fertilizer, a high N guano would be along the lines of Mexican Bat guano (Sunleaves)

Blood meal has soulble nitrogen which means it is readily available to the plants roots. It is not a slow release nitrogen.
In my soil I use (nitrogen) blood meal 10-0-0 and (high phosphorous) bat guano 0-10-0. They both work fantastic!

Dude do a google search blood meal soulbe nitrogen you will see!
Blood Meal is a water soluble powder that works quickly, providing “heavy” feeding plants such as corn, lettuce, and okra with the high amounts of nitrogen. This fast acting organic fertilizer works to build new growth and keeps mature plants healthy and green. Blood meal can help brown, spotted, or wilting plants recover by infusing the soil around their roots with nutrients and minerals essential to healthy plant growth.

I'm not saying there isn't soluble nitrogen. I am saying that there is INSOLUBLE nitrogen as well, which makes it a slow release fertilizer. The insoluble stuff has to be broken down by the soil organisms.
Blood meal has a total nitrogen content of 12% of in blood meal. Of the total nitrogen content only 8.3% is a soluble nitrogen source. The other 91.7% are insoluble nitrogen.
edit:
Even though the picture I posted says it PLAIN AS DAY...here's another source that will tell you the same thing about blood meal.

Most blood meal is water soluble do look it up and you will figure it out. Yeah the pic u showed is mostly non soluble nitrogen but I'm saying MOST BLOOD MEAL is SOLUABLE like the second pic you posted. Those arent informational sites they are products being sold. I know expert growers that have suggested me blood meal for nitrogen because it was so fast acting!
you made it seem as if it wasn't soluble by posting that. As a matter of fact that's the first slow release blood meal I've ever seen. They are mostly water Soluable is all I'm saying!
