I found this stuff at home depot for about 15 a bag. It's 5-4-3 I'm thinking of using it instead of my gaia green all purpose dry amendments for making my soil. I think it would work well for veg.
But I'm not sure on the ratio for mixing with soil for potted plants.
Here is a Pic of the back of the back

Anyone used this product?
Any recommendations on ratio per gallon of promix?

Looks pretty similar to Espoma products, They are all chicken poo based. They recommend 2 cups per cubic foot of soil for most of their stuff.

You are definitely right about the bolting with too much chicken manure.
I noticed a few days after stop dressing with it that they started to shoot up super fast with big internodal spacing.
Been there done that!
Messes up flower production too. Makes big long fluff buds

Oh shit. I put some in when I remixed my soil. Hopefully I didn't overdue it. I guess I'll find out after they start flowering in that mix.
I put in about 2 cups into 7-8 gallons of soil. But I also added what I would usually add of gaia green dry amendments.

I just skip the chicken shit entirely. It's good in my compost bin, once broken down for a year or two and mixed with the rest of it but alone it's way to hot

This soil will be cooking for at least 3 months I'd say. And it also has the other amendments ,so I'm hoping it works out.

Instead of chicken shit I use Gaia fishbone meal. It has a high amount of n as well as calcium and high p. Kinda all around good. When there's too much n, the pH will go off whack and it antagonizes other stuff. Keep us posted how it works out tho.
