Hi, Just curious what are you mixing in your teas and what is your dilution ratio? I do teas for outside but just feel on indoors the grow is over so quick that the plants don't really have time to maximise the uptake of organic foods.
In organic soil, it does take more time for roots + mycorrhiza to become established. It's also crucial not to overwater, especially when plants are very young or have been recently transplanted. Teas really hit the spot after a transplant. I bump up the phosphorous to give them energy to grow roots.
I do love using Pure Protein dry fish in my teas besides seabird or bat guano. Ever use Pure Protein?
I haven't tried it, but might if I find it on sale... (I'm cheap)
Pure Protein 15-1-1 and the 5-12-14 both work great in teas or for foliar. Been using Eds products for the last few years and killing it on the outside. Indoor I am still learning and have some great success's and some real losses. Can't seem to figure what I do wrong sometimes on indoors.
Peruvian seabird guano kicks serious butt!
E.B. Stone makes good products. I use a lot of their sul-po-mag (0-0-20).
green sand next time and forgot to mention i add pumice instead of perlight. Mix ruffly half soil to every thing else mainly compost ewc and coir plus amendments. I do this with old soil and rarely add nutrients . They want more potassium though so i think the green sand will help. It's like 0-0-3 with slow realese plus 30 micros and iron . Going to add both.
I highly recommend sul-po-mag, just be careful with it.
Did someone say "pumice"?
Plant in the back is a C4 auto, mostly as its a purple strain so just had to!
What you described is not flushing.I use:
- Black magic Potting mix, has the following in the mix:
Very hot mix, so seedlings get germinated in a seedling soil before being transplanted.
- Coco Coir
- Perlite
- Sphagnum Peat Moss
- Aged Bark
- Volcanic Ash
- Feather Meal, Bone Meal, Kelp Meal
- Worm Castings
- Bat Guano
In terms of nutes:
- Cal-mag as the potting mix seems to run out of this about 4 weeks through. Also helps a little bit with nitrogen as has 4%.
- Canna 13/14 PK. Half dose a week after the girlie bits start showing, followed by ramping up to a full dose over the course of the grow.
That's it, usual flushing pattern, and under a MarsHydro 300 LED + 150w UFO LED.
Some nute burn on the girl below whom has about 2 weeks to go in this picture (BioDiesel Mass Auto), and also actively cannibalizing her leaves for bud growth even with the N from the Cal-Mag. Although seems to have really slowed down now, not sure if its strain related as my other grows I haven't seen this behaviour. She's had LST as I've got a tiny grow tent
Shitty English on my part and not re-reading it
