Thats the thing about MG. Unless you are using it outside and water it in good it will burn the shit out of plants. I never mix it more than 1/4 strength. If the plant needs more nutes, I do it more often, not stronger.

I have this miracle gro and it is this blue powder i dont know what its called but u mix it with water.
Would this be good to use as a bloom fertiliser? Also what are the nutrient levels ie *-*-*.
Anyone know how much i would use to mix with water?
I used MG with good results for years, my only complaint was with a taste left from this fert. I now use Max-sea 16-16-16 and enjoy the flavors of the plant strains and not the fert. Good luck :mrgreen:

Yes, I didn't say miricle grow didn't work great on outdoor plants and even indoor plants with moderation; Just simply that economically, it's much wiser to get something that is tried and tested rather than MG which; For some of us has worked it sounds at around 1/2 strength, but has also be proven to cause slight nute burn. I agree that it will work if your in a bind but....

Good luck to anyone on a budget using MG, I think we've all been there. I started that way too! But eventually you smoke it and you want better flavor, potency and yeild. Again, my advice, spend the extra buck, your lungs and your girls will thank you for it.

Great thread!

I would also recommend Dutch Master One Grow & Dutch Master One Flower (Around $10.00 a piece). I use cheap $3.00 Grandma's mollasses(2tblsn per/gal.), and during flower some supplements. I think it's important also to know your ph of your water and soil. This affects GREATLY how nutrients are absorbed and broken down in the soil, and carried throughout the plant.
