Age Old grow 12-6-6 makes a pretty good all the way fert.....Not to bad a price....
You can shift to Age Old bloom at like 4-5 weeks in and jump the P if your into that sort of thing..
I make a bloom mix from Age old kelp, Age old bloom, Thrive alive green label and (sshhh quiet on this one) Mother earth super tea....
1TBL Age Old
1/2 oz Tea
1/4 oz each of the Kelp extract and the Thrive Alive
5 gallons of water
Water plant as needed in Bloom after week 2-3 with this one.....Want it stronger? Reduce the water amounts.

OK, the Grow at 12-6-6 can be used as an all in one and done fert - cut by half and use slowly - add more if need be.
IF you want to play the more P game later in bloom - switch to the Bloom.
The MIX is what I use as a heavy feeder supplement to water only soils (weekly).
I have used it as a stand alone bloom feed for organics and it works fine (every other watering) ......I do not use a "bloom" or high P fert till after week 2-3 in bloom. use the higher N veg formula till then and have better, happier plants and results that way!
Easier to understand?
I did make it kinda blended - sorry.

No prob bro....
Oh, yeah, one last thing to note on the mix!
If the plants act like the want more and your doing the every other watering...DON'T feed more often,,,,drop the mix water by 1 gallon till the plants are happy......
Good things to know:
Plants in soil take 5-7 days to show any reaction to an adjustment.
Only N defs and overages will show a "correction" in the effected leaves.
Always watch new growth for changes other then N...
where you order your nutes and all supplements from??
hey mother teas super tea bloom or grow ???
on there now checking it all out..there good they got everything there

Good post. Ive been using age old for years and I think its a great line. I used grow, bloom, and kelp with zero problems, but I will say it is lacking in the flavor department. I started adding FF big bloom for its flavor enhancing qualities. Then I felt I had a knock out fert program.
I stopped using thrive alive green and wont look back. I ran a side by side and did not see a difference. Plus that shit is expensive.
