neptunes harvest is pretty low in nitrogen... I use it for my other plants or if I notice a deficiency since it has a pretty even nutrient spread.

I use to use it but I had trouble with burning. It's very acidic so you need a lot of pH up. I now use cooked bone meal at 6-12-0 and am having a lot better results, with no burning, I use 1 teaspoon of molasses per gallon for potassium.A 4 dollar thing of bone meal can be used for 50 plus gallons of soil! I use 2-3 large tablespoons per gallon

Ganj, do you ever make a tea with the bone meal?

Fuck, I should read the dates when I'm posting, huh?

No I don't, I don't have an aerater to bubble the tea. I just picked up a gallon of the pure blend pro grow and 2 1/2 gallons of the bloom. I am done with bone meal for now! It feels good having some real nutrients!

Well, I decided to experiment with making a tea with it, and it smells fucking AWFUL. I can't get rid of it fast enough.

bumpity bumpity bumpity, lol. Giggity, giggity, giggity. lol get it?

thought I would bring this back up. I just got some, as now I have decided to go organic I have got to have everything apparently. I think it is a patience thing as I wait for my white widow skums to pop and my other strains to get nodes.

I have on hand omri certified bio bizz grow and bloom and also mexican batguano and now alaska fish emulsion. Also worm castings. I prob just gonna use Bio Bizz and if i can hopefully squeeze in a little bat guano. In fox farm ocean forest and light warrior as is I dont wanna burn. Maybe I will feed a few plants with this and guano and worm castings and spt as a tea. High str but I got an extra to my limit.

I am learning that I prob could just used fox farm like subcools super soil and the given flower nutes. But I mixed everything. Lot to learn. more fun than school which I am back in. that is not good but oh well.

what else do you put in it, what kind of soil do you use, and when do you feed?

this is stuff inquiring minds want to know. I am with a mediocre hot soil. I diluted fox farm ocena forest with one bag of light warrior. I am thinking light nutes for grow and maybe a little heavier for bloom. Waiting is fun, i am reading the internet for everything organic. A lot of the tricks I see here are common in the ordinary gardening world.

I'd start with a light dose..maybe a teaspoon or two per gallon of water.

less is better than too much underferting is easier to correct than nute burn.

fish emulsion while not bad in light doses is'nt very effective in soil..its primarily used as a foliar feed in veg....different variets of bat guano are redily available and are superior in my experience....
in miricale grow potting mix with perilite and guano 2-10-2 given molasses every third water
