best way to germinate

[itchybromusic]

Seasol is more like a plant tonic , good for soil & plant health 

power feed is a fertilizer NPK

 

start low with bottled ferts considering your in soil , that will have ferts in it as well 

start at 1/4 strength & watch for tip burn & plant color , work your way up from there 

that's pretty conservative start

simplest organic grow i did i mentioned somewhere else today, a little epsom salts and lime for calcium and magnesium. seasol seaweed or gogo juice, molasses (1tbspn a bucket) then a little fish emulsion.

 

so easy, 2mL a litre of seasol, 2mL a litre of fish emulsion and the calcium and magnesium i barely added any at all, waited till i saw tell tale signs on leaves for that. just poured bat guano in there mid flower for a couple weeks.

 

vegged the photoperiod plants up for 4 weeks from seed then flowered them in 5L pots, got over a ounce each. organic too. had a heap of em. i was broke and loaded up with buds. 12-13 weeks from seed.

 

if the leaves looked like they were low on N , up went the dose of the fish n seaweed. but in flower its hard to get deficiencies if you feed ok, because the plant opens up its tolerance to a wider spectrum of variables.

 

Might have been a different story had they of been waiting for months in veg. not sure. probably wont be that broke again.

 

*Edit - i remember they loved a good spray of the fish emulsion diluted a couple times a day, the area stank like rotten fishes during veg and early flower when i stopped.

If it is proper 100% fish emulsion with no added NPK it will only be around 4% N and you can safely go up to 20ml per litre.

what cha really want & maybe what you meant , maybe , is fish hydrolysate 

not so much the emulsion , sorry if i'm putting words in your mouth wgb or having a stoner moment !

 

What is the difference between hydrolysate fish fertilizer and fish emulsion products?

 

Today, the term emulsion has become used universally to describe liquid fish fertilizer, much like how the term Kleenex

has become synonymous with tissues or Q-tip has come to mean cotton swab.  However, there are very substantial

differences between Emulsions and the higher quality Fish Hydrolysate fertilizers.  The primary differences become

apparent with a short description of the respective manufacturing processes.  For an Emulsion, you take the fish and

cook, boil and render them under extreme heat, and then the beneficial oils are removed and sold into the Health Food / Vitamin

Market where you have certainly seen Fish Oil Vitamins, etc…in the grocery or health food store.  Then, believe it or not,

the actual fish meal and all the proteins and nutrients that it provides are stripped out and sold into the pet food and

livestock food markets.  Only then is the stick-water with the few nutrients remaining processed into the product known

as Fish Emulsion, which is often smelly and frequently clogs application equipment, and is generally difficult to work with. 

In contrast, the High Quality Fish Hydrolysate Fertilizer is quite simply, 100% all natural liquefied fish, with none of the beneficial

oils and proteins removed.  Fish are Cold-Processed through a natural enzymatic liquefaction process and then the liquid fish

is packaged and sold.  The hydrolysate retains all of the beneficial oils and protein nitrogen

I do personally use hydrolysate rather than emulsion, but if you are using something like Charlie Carp, it comes in the proper 100% organic version with low N or it comes in a chemically boosted version. Edited December 12, 2016 by wannagrowbuds

you should probably buy some nutrients for it.

 

I use house and garden soil nutrients a fair bit.

i just pour 2 caps of a and 2 caps of b and pour them into a 10L bucket of water

add a capful of seaweed too. stir and feed. 

 

in soil you dont need them ph testers much
