My first go at organic weed I used promix 4-4-8 prilled. I mixed it with dried kelp.Worked fine.
Dont add more then 1/3 compost or you'll drown your plants.

Tomorite is just fine. The standard one is NPK 4-3-8. I grew Autos outdoors with it last year and it was great, some of the best weed I have ever grown. I had them in 4 gallon pots with Big Tom tomato compost. I just watered them at full strength weekly, from when they started to flower. I also top dressed with a teaspoon of Epsom Salts when they started flowering too. Worked really well.

I use it indoors now too. Indoors I use it at half strength every watering. As my tap water contains no minerals at all I have taken to giving them a touch of Epsom Salt and Calcium Chloride on a weekly basis, half a teaspoon of each in 5L of water. But adding extra minerals only really applies to my scenario.

I haven't tried the new organic one yet. It is NPK 3-3-3 + 1% Mg. I believe it is formulated to work with their new Peat Free Organic compost grow bags. I always use the soil mix from Tomato grow bags because it is perfectly balanced and super cheap. I will be giving the new organic feed and soil a try with my next run, I have a load of free sample seeds to put on and I'd rather fuck them up than the rather expensive Skywalker Haze I have to put on.
