Yea I've realized that now. My problem is keeping up with it. I've been giving her a weak watering of soybean aminos. It has a npk of 15-0-0. I cut the ratio down to 3.5-0-0. Think I might raise it to 7-0-0. I just wanted to see if the weaker dose would work.

I've also been top dressing with 1/4 cup craft blend and 3 cups ewc. I just raised the craft blend to a 1/2 cup last night.

Top water over your food daily,should help speed it up.

Ha, well my Gaia 444 has blood meal in it just needs a little more me thinks.I try to keep it simple and not buy too much stuff.Insect frass is another option or alfalfa meal.I bought a 20kg bag of alfalfa pellets I soak them to puff them up then dry them out.Grind them up and add to my soil.Was cheap $15 for what looks like a lifetime supply.
 
I have a cob fixture, qb fixtures, and strip fixtures. The strips run very cool. Plants can almost touch them without any burn or stress that I've noticed the qbs are a lil better but the cobs will burn the shit out of them under 12" with my fixture. :wall:
