questions galore

pretty self-explanatory. if anyone can answer even one of these questions, shoot.

1. what is bone meal?

2. what is the general rule-of-thumb when it comes to n.p.k. values? what elements would you want for what stage of growth?

3. should i use multicote plant food?

4. if so, should i use the rose & flower food (14-14-16) or the outdoor indoor plant food (18-6-12)?

5. what does vitamin b-1 do? should i even use it?

bone meal is a root builder. It is good for early growth when you want the plant to develop a good root ball. Dont use too much during end of veg/flowering as the plant will be spending more time on the roots than intended.
N.P.K for veg stage you can keep at a 20.20.20
Baby bio plant food is good

also, where do you get your baby bio from? would most garden centers have them?

Bone meal is high in Phosphorus, and is most suitable for the flowering period. However, as it is a slow-release fertilizer, it is fine to add to the soil earlier in the grow period. (Perhaps the best course of action is to add it to the mix you perform your final transplant into.) One caution about bone meal, especially in Europe, is that many growers will not use it for fear of spreading Mad Cow Disease. Although this has not been proven, it is wise to bear this in mind.

Never heard about mad cow disease spreads over plant you smoke

that stuff you get from your steak or burger may be but not from weed you burn. that will burn the prejones, or how those altered proteins are called, too

so that is probably once more DEA bull that they spread to keep us from growing :roll:

i tossed some always into the holes we dug before setting the plant in, back in the farming days. basically as good s fish meal will do, but doesn't have the stink to it if it soaks water
