ahh...i see, that's probably why there so cheap
Have you found an answer for this one? Sometimes i'm on a very tight budget and can only afford those cheap food sticks instead of buying the good liquid stuff.

i dont assume crushing the sticks and diluting like REALLY FUCKING DILUTING and using it the same as liquid would work would it? I ask because i cant afford good nutes and was looking at some i had for a bonsai i murdered

I was in that situation once to, I didn't use alot of the stick depending on the size of your pot maybe 1/8 or 1/16 of the stick not very much and it worked pretty good for my budget and plant. just DON'T overdo it

It really depends on the amount of soil and how far you can place it from the plant any smaller than like 1-1/2 to 2 gal pot use less than 1/8th to start and get a feel for it. Also I dont know if those spikes have all the nutes you need, I would check that out too I vaguely remember having some deficiencys
hope that helps
