If you could only use two fertilizers...

[scaredspliffless]

If you could only use two fertilizer products for your plants, what would they be and why. enzyme products would be included in this category.

i want to use age old fdd2blck uses it.. it looks good

other than that im not too phased something high in nitrogen for veg and something high in phos an potasium for flower...

ive been using mg and seasol atm adding extra np&k as needed seems to be a good base... i definately wouldnt use it by itself..

yup i was on a budget this time but in all im impressed really. i dont know why people are dissing it..

but if you want real precision get three part ferts

peace

p.s
sorry i know this isnt really what you asked but like i said im not phased.

a helpfull hint the only half good dutchmaster is gold all the others are inconsistent mixes and constantly changing there recipie

Keep it simple,seaweed extract and fish emulsion,cheap and organic.

Well if I was working with what I have on the shelf I'd use b'cuzz bloom lots of it lol, Purple maxx as well but I'd be using fox farm soil and that stuffs pretty good.

thats what im lookin foward to next time, keepin it simple, organic if possible. I think i will try two plants grown slightly different and tweak a little bit based on the results from each. I would like to know if anyone here is using fox farm organic products.

actually miracle grow organic powder fertilizer goes really well with them as i said before. but even then i find they need more addatives.

like i said mg is a good base... also with that combination you should really get some epsom salts

p.s

i havent used the MG soil mix... so yeah

but what i will say is my little experiments made me think twice about spending heaps of coin on nutes again.

although there are good three parts out there

i have not used bcuzz bloom, your talking about the organic bottle with hardly any npk value thats surprisingly expensive?
what does that do?
im going to try bloombastic one day

im wondering now :
what if you just use seasol and fish emulsion (seasol powerfeed) and nothing else?
its organic and would be a mighty veg formula.
would it cut it in flower or would you end up short?

I would use homemade compost tea, and hydrogen peroxide.

Compost tea because its organic and cannot burn your plants. It also provides all the nutes the plant needs for all its stages of growth.

Hydrogen peroxide to provide oxygen to the roots of the plant and the benificial bacteria that the compost tea introduces.

They are also both very cheap.

Worm castings and tea. Have plenty of both since I also grow worms.

The second would be something from the sea for flowering, seaweed, fish emulsion, kelp, crushed crab shells, whatever, depending on the amount/release of P I wanted.

But, worm castings are pretty much complete in and of themselves.

Before I recently started going organic, I used this exact combo of Jack's for over 35 years. It works great !!!!!!

But, I also bought in 25lb bags and had a semi commercial orchid/rare fern greenhouse operation.
