Just wondering what some good sources of Potassium are for your plants. Are there any home-made remediess, or just to use a different fertilizer?

I've been using Neptune's Harvest Fish Fertilizer which has about 2% Nitrogen, 4% Phosphate, and 1% Soluble Potash (K2O).
It's ratio is therefore 2 - 4 - 1.

Why do you feel you need K?

How would you know the amount of available K in the soil?

Adding K without knowing where you stand or because you using a 4-2-1 fert is asking for trouble.

Well if she's feeding anything besides straight water then it's a good bet it's not properly amended organic soil .Just looking at the ratio alone I wouldn't want to feed just that.

Because that's a poor flowering ratio.

No. It could be a poor rating but you dont know unless you know what the fert is comprised of and the composition of the soil minerals.

The npk rating itself does not tell you very much about what is actually being supplied.

Bro i know you're talking out of your fucking ass.

You have no idea what's up with the grow here, the solubility of the N and P or her soil conditions.. You read high times, smoked weed and became a botanist. Refrain from giving advice on flowering nutes it's not helpful.

Ok... Bro

Is that what you do? Send out a fucking soil sample for analysis to figure out what ferts to use? Or do you use a balanced fucking profile... Please... If you don't know what's in your dirt.. Ffof for example.. Every bag can be different, do you wait until your plants are fucked up before you do something then?

Like I said unless you are running a properly amended soil that you know the contents of a balanced npk is a safe bet.

if you have a worm bin and compost your soil banana peels are a great source, also be careful with molasses less is more, or maxicrop soluble seaweed is good source 0-0-17

Stop fronting bitch.

I do send out for soil test with each new batch of soil. If you're buying soil where every bag is different you're wasting time and money. Your media cant be fucking mystery? WTF?

Properly amended? WHAT THE FUCK DOES THAT EVEN MEAN IF YOU HAVENT DONE AN ANALYSIS.
You havent got the vocabulary or the concepts yet your a fucking soil genius. Shut the fuck up jackass

Lol ok of, don't worry about potassium in your store bought mystery soil, testicle here says you are going to be fine all the way through with your 2-4-1.

Because I bet you did a soil analysis right OP...? You didn't just buy a bag at the store and throw it in the pot right?

Whatever better listen to testicle here and go get Ffof or black gold soil tested for potassium before you dare add any molasses or anything.. Lol. What a joke.
