start by making a small compost bin (heres your old organic material)
then use the resulting product as the base for your tea
and yes, guano is magic, theres a post in here somewhere w/ several several SEVERAL tea recipes listed up... rather than pick one, browse thru and get a feel for the recipe building process itself, and rock one that suits your grow best.

lots of stuff will work well, bone meal is one of the more concentrated sources of organic phosphorus

DO NOT FOLIAR FEED AFTER WEEK 4 OF BLOOM
You can add a biological stimulator to any brew to give a jump start to the process. I LOVE OREGONISM XL by Root Organics. Follow directions on container.
FLUSHING DIRECTIONS: hahahahahahahahahahahah
Continue until the day you Harvest. Don't Panic, Its Organic!
Curing Directions:
Cut all leaves from buds, leaving only the flower.
Leave the buds on the branch.
Hang branches for 3-4 days on a line in a dark room at 70-75 degrees with average humidity (50-60rh)
Clip buds from branch and into cardboard box. Make sure they are one layer thin on the bottom of box not stacked. Leave them in the box, with the top on, for 3-4 days, giving them a good shake once a day.
Put buds in an air tight glass jar (Ikea) for 3-4 days. *** Very important to shake up and BURP(open top to release gasses) ONCE A DAY*****
After that it should be ready. If anyone tells you it will take less than 10 days to properly cure nugs, forget anything else they have ever told you.
The nugs should barely smell until you twist-break them open, then it should be DANK!
Other directions:
Brew in 5 gallon home depot bucket outside, for smell and overflow reasons. Use as many airstones as possible to bubble your brew. You can't add too much dissolved Oxygen. 18-24 hours later the Sweet molasses smell will turn to a rich earthy smell. IT IS DONE! Let sit for 20 minutes after you remove the airstones to allow sediment to settle to bottom. Pour 2.5 gallons into new bucket to 50/50 with fresh water for soil drench. Use tea with-in 6 hours of airstone removal at max. Right away is best. Rinse out bucket sludge into outside garden as soon as possible. If it dries i'll bet you a dollar you'll buy a new bucket.
Use Root misting airoponic 5g bucket for Clones with 24/7 6500k florescent light.
Move from clone bucket to veg. 1 when roots are 4 to 8 inches.
If possible, re pot using a slightly bigger pot between veg 1 ( 1 gallon)and veg 2 (3 gallon).
Sprinkle 1 tsp. of Mycorrhizae Fungus product on root ball during trans potting.
Veg stage should be to desired size. You should top veg plants often until they are about 18-24 inches tall and have 12-15 tops (ready for colas)
Use 6500k florescent light 18 hours on, 6 hours off. Temperature should be 72-78 degrees.
Bloom should be 8-10 weeks based on strain of plant.
Use 1000watt High Pressure Sodium lights 12 hours on 12 hours off. Temperature should be 70-76 degrees. I like to lower temp in Bloom 2 to 65-72 degrees to bring out the purple. (just a lack of molybdenum due to cold) But helps with sales later.
First 2 weeks in bloom the plants will stretch, wait to re pot until week 3 so the new soil feeds flowering not stretching. Use 7.5 -10 gallon pot depending on size.
Lollie pop the plants week 3 right after re potting. This means cutting all the bottom leaves and node sites off so there are 18 inches from top to bottom node site. From dirt to lowest node site/ leaf should look like sticks. Also cutting off all small offshoots is helpful to clean up middle. Remember 1000w HPS only penetrates 18 inches.
I can tell you the best and easiest way to get all this online if you want.
Happy growing
