actually it is better to fert when the soil is moist already.Then let it dry between waterings.Bloodmeal is a quick source of nitro. but will not last in the soil long. use it probly once a month or every 6 weeks. find somehing more complete and your plants will be better off. use mollasses in your water 1 tbsp per gallon.
Hmmm... I also have these fertilizer sticks for tomatoes I can use. I was hoping I'd get a good 3 weeks before I had to do any fert. Oh, and good call, since I ferted this morning both plants grew an inch. I also have Miracle Grow. My whole idea with that is to add it at like 1/30th of what they tell me to water in a spray bottle when the plant gets huge so I can get nutrients directly on the lower leaves.
niether one of those products will do. Stick with the bloodmeal- get some mollasses, Verify this here http://www.cannabisworld.org/vbportal/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=80996 Good stuff and get foxfarm growbig,,tigerbloom, and bigbloom. The mollasses will help your plants get what they need from the soil- use it with half doses of the miracle grow until you can buy the foxfarm products. If all else fails, and you cannot afford ferts- use miracle grow with mollasses as needed during veg, and use bigbloom when flowering. Reason being the mollasses will help cheleate the unavailable nutrients, you wont have as much problems with chem taste- use less MG so no excess chems build up. 1/2 Strength might work out for you. do not try using foiliar feed methods unless ferts are made for it. good luck- hope this helps "tiedyeand the chocolate factory"
Egads, that's a lot of stuff. How about I just use worm castings? Just using one this is much simpler in my mind if at all possible.
Fert Sticks means Over Ferting most of the Time! If thats alot to go out and buy for instance, you can make compost tea or give it some miracle GLO.
worm castings will work wonders, bat guano is great too.You need to explore the organics forum at overgrow. Lots of people there to help.
There are yellow spots on one leaf of one plant. WHyyyyyyyyy? and here is a pic from a slightly different angel:
i had that same thing on my plants.....but i just went on growing it and it didnt effect my plant, they still turned out nice.......my thinkin is either nutrient defficiency or water on the leaves causing burn
nute def. will get much worse than that. the bloodmeal sure greened em up. You must have got water on the leaves while watering. Them babies are looking good.
What's nute? And yeah, since I started adding the blood meal they seem to be growing much faster. I have gotten water on the leaves before but I did my best to removed any droplets. I guess I must have missed a leave in the back.
Nute is just an abreviation for nutrients. I have a thread in the cannabliss cafe at overgrow A bullshiting thread, but there is a great list of links for organic study someone posted on there. I have been reading them, and though some links are dead,the one's that are good make great reading. http://overgrow.com/edge/showthread.php?p=7180907
Ugh, this is aweful. I think I'm gonna have to give up on this botany experiment. It's just sooo....barfs. Is what I have smokable?
Oh, it isn't the plants that smell like crap, it is the water I mixed with ferilizer a while ago that smells like it. duh...it just seems to come from the plants because, well, that's where the water goes.
is that aluminum foil if it is i reccomend that you find a better reflector because in a month or two that isnt goin to do shit for you....but any way your bottom leaves are ing to turn a yellowish greenish and then brown and eventually die off. its a normal thing. dont pull them off wait till they fall off or cut them at a 90 degree angle. but about those white widow seeds you up for selling a few or trading????
What kind of reflectors do you recommend? Is it even neccessary? Sorry, not gonna sell the seeds. I'll buy what I need, but not distribute. It's a legal thing.
Probably until 1/2 the phototron height. or a foot tall is fine. my landlord saw my mother out in the sun and was totally cool with it. im tripping.
