A few thoughts.
Fermented plant juices and fermented fruit juices. Horsetail, nettle, comfrey, bananas, etc.
Grow your own comfrey patch using a sterile variety like bocking 14. Comfrey is a dynamic accumulator, and will make an excellent kelp meal replacement. Just be smart about where you plant it, because it will be there FOREVER.
Most importantly, you should start a worm bin. If you want to grow organically you're going to need good compost, and homemade EWC is the best.

https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCus0ZO165qzh6KPlULSzs4wI see too many similar posts elsewhere in this forum. Someone talk about DIY Cal/Mag and I post this, but I see that here, also, talk about DIY nutrients. So, I just re-write here as well.
Any product has a label with Cannabis or Marijuana, they make a big profit by raising the high price much higher for the same items that have no mention of cannabis. This reminds me of the TV reporting about the deodorant's price. When the factory makes deodorant to sell, they make only 1 kind of deodorant. But when they dress up deodorant's cover, they use 2 different labels; 1 for men and 1 for women with the big price differences. They price $2.50 for women's and $3.25 for men. Because, in general, when men shops, they don't compare the price but women usually check the price and compare it to other similar brands. And this is normal practice and it's legal. So, when it comes to Cannabis, they are doing the same practice. So, we as a consumer needs to know why something cost much more than the other.
Did anyone hear of KNF? KNF (Korean Natural Farming) is all about using natural nutrition to grow things and there are several different nutritions you can make at home - It's all organic. low cost, gentle to the plants. Once it is done, this homemade nutrition can be mixed with water at a 1:500 ratio.
If anyone interested in KNF, there is very good information on YouTube by Chris Trump. He learned this method from KNF master.
Here is more about KNF It is now spreading through Cannabis growers. You can find easily by searching KNF on the cannabis seminar series part 1 and part 2.
I made a few KNF nutritions. It's very gentle food for the plants.
LAB (LActobacillus) from rice water + milk --helps increase the ability to absorb nutrients
WCA (Water-soluble Calcium) from eggshell and rice vinegar
FPJ (Fermented Plant Juice) - Vegetables + Brown Sugar --Natural form of nitrogen
FFP (fermented Fruit Juice) - Fruit + Brown Sugar --Phosphorous: Giving during Flowering Period
FAA (Fish Amino Acid) - Fish + Brown Sugar --help strengthen the plants' natural immune system, potentially reducing the need for pesticides and fungicides.
and many others that you can make at home. These are good nutrition and can be replacing typical bottled nutrition of CAL, NKP, and Molasses.
And most of these nutritions, it only takes few days to a week except FAA (takes min. 3 months- longer the better)

eakeeper is right but Beware! KNF and all organic farming techniques can be addictive in itself. So much to learn and experiment with.
I've made an extract from the un-opened blossoms of lavender. I have not tested it yet other than a soil drench upon flipping. From what I have read, the auxins in the blossoms help promote flowering. Can't wait to get a stash of smokeables so I can really do a proper test from scratch.

Yes, it can be 'addictive' and I made more than enough to last several years. So, I have been using it as a fertilizer for my grass during the summer. I keep making LAB and WCP. It's such an easy recipe and works great.
The more complicated ones like OHM, I haven't had a chance to make it yet. But I am going to after the holidays.
Here is the link to download KNF book. It's my google drive, so the link is safe.
Also, here are the links to download many cannabis-related books if anyone interested in it.
Yeah make compost tea
Get an air pump or two
A 5 gallon bucket
Cheese cloth (Or anything to filter out small particles)
Then get worm castings, Alfa Alfa, bat guano and other stuff like that (you can search up a good recipe some strains like more nutes then others)
Put it all in the cheese cloth put the air pumps in the bucket fill it with water till cheese cloth is submerged and let the air pump go for around 24hrs then you will see it foaming a lot and you got a good compost tea full of nutes and it cost way less in the long run then bottles nutes
Hey man do you have some seeds in there I think I can see like 1 or 2 seed sacks they are sometimes hard to spot at first

Don't think so. Smoked that cola already. Still have one more WW to harvest but just waiting on more amber. First one gives off a nice trippy high. Can't wait to see what more amber does with the second one.
I am in trouble though with that unknown strain in the back right. It has surpassed the Platinum Valley and it is two weeks behind flip. It started bud formation about 5 days ago so all is looking well so far except for the headroom. Be a shame to have to tie it back.

Not to get too far off topic, but I'm used to hearing about the "pink tax" where women's products generally cost more than men's. And that's because women have a much wider variety so a lot more stock and shelf space has to be used up on it and that costs more. I get where you're coming from, though, and I think the problem with the Cannabis label is that to your average consumer, printing Cannabis on a label is basically a stigma that will chase off your average non-cannabis gardener, and that makes it more expensive to keep stocked. I know I have no problem putting rose fertilizer on my cannabis, but I doubt too many people are going to want to put cannabis fertilizer on their roses.

To make the soil nutrient-rich, you have to use compositing because it is widely used by many growers to make their marijuana plants full of nitrogen, potassium, and phosphorus minerals.
