I dont know much about worm castings but is it strong enough to help my plants that have been N depraved for weeks now? Also would it be beneficial in my hempy when I flush it out every other day?
Orange piss?

Yeah I am going to get that, I need alot of N it seems, bottom leaves are fucked. So I am doing that tomorrow night, do I keep my regular feeding schedule for tonight? Which would be watering with nutes.

I would keep feeding the same as you are. I would be sure to keep an eye on your Ph as you fluctuate new ferts / nutes. MG soil is ok but as long as you don't feed for about 2 months lol. It will burn your plants pretty quickly if you use nutes anytime before that. I went to Fox Farm Ocean Forest and didn't even feed through flower except some molasses which made my buds taste really nice
To check the ph of your soil you can either buy 1 of those rinky ass Lowes soil meters or you can run some water through the bottom into a drop Ph tester or into a cup for electric. There are also soil testers you can get that work ok but are kinda a waste of $$ imho. I will be here til the end for ya bud good luck and hope things turn around soon.I do apologize for not reading the beginning part. You are growing without soil right? Drip or daily watering?
OK NOW I have looked through almost everything and is that perlite you are using instead of soil? You germ in a pellet but use perlite for the media? Hm Never seen this done before but have heard of it. I am still leaning towards some Nitrogen man. I use the Flora series also with no problems but I go by the instructions but start half strength then move up. Most of my grow is dedicated to PPM really. During veg I go from 700ppm (young plants) to 1500-1800PPM for larger plants and those in flower get more bloom than recommended but that's because I don't have my FF Tiger Bloom yet

Yeah I dont know about dirt either, I think this method will work until I really want to jump into hydroponics. I also think this method works pretty well as the last grow was totally fucked and the hempy produced a good amount of bud. I dont know too much about ppms joker. Yeah I use the pellets after the seed has jermed. I didnt know what worked the best and rockwool retains alot of water. The roots grow through the pellet and most of the dirt falls down and is washed out the res.

Cool. Plants are looking pretty good now, I will post some pics of em this week sometime, they really liked the dried blood and full strength nutes..

The 2 plants are looking better, the AB's bottom leaves never died and are starting to turn back green. I am going to give another shot of dried blood tonight and am going to transplant the 3 small ones tonight (I believe there 19 days old).
I also have 2 seedlings of LSD and Vanilla Kush in the veg cab and I have 2 seeds germing, another LSD and Barny's Farm Pineapple Chunk.
I got some Trainwreck nugs last night and that shit is some dank, airy as hell but some nice bud...
Thanks for the info to Murf..Ill keep that in mind as I learn about this Lucas Formula.

Quick question on this. I have been reading up on dry blood, after I have given my plants 2 doses and found this info. The dried blood I bought (and every brand around my house) is 12% insoluble Nitrogen. Only like .5% (maybe less, I found some people claiming .36) of the shit is water soluble and max potency takes 7 days, I waited 3. Now my plants did look noticeably better the next couple days following the first dose so it did work to some extent. I did read that it helps soil quite a bit as the 11% that does not dissolve in the water is stored in the soil and used as time goes on.

I would highly recommend you getting a more hydroponically advanced nutrient for your Nitrogen feeding. I think you are throwing money away on the dried blood tbh. That is only a good thing in soil like I said about the guano. Use GH or FF grow nutrients instead and you will probably have less troubles.
