Ok guys i hear how bat shit is like the best natural source of nitrogen you can get. I don't know if its true. I work at a park and found a great source to get it. I collected a pound or so of it yesterday. So my question is how do you apply it and how much and at what time in the cycle.

You can premix it into your soil, so that when you plant in it, your plants will have food from the get-go, or you can use it as a top dressing and just apply it to the top layer of your soil and water so that the water carries the nutes to the roots. Hope this helps Dr0sKi...

i have three types: one is called mocha bat guano which is 4-6-2 (i mix this one for both veg n bloom), an archipelago guano which is 0-7-0 (i use this one only for bloom), and one that is 10-3-1 (and this one only for veg); also i use soluble seaweed as a potassium source cause most of the guanos lack k

What the bats eat determines the N-P-K ratio. bug eaters are what we have in most of the US. probably like a 10-1-1 with the mexican free tail, bug eating bats here in central texas. Fruit bats have the stuff you want for bloom.

good luck

We have bats that eat bugs as well, but there are lots of fruit trees around. I put a little on the top of the soil and began flowering 2 days ago. This wont hurt them will it. Im going to try and get some pics up its my first grow. Thanks guys.

Mix about 1-2 tbls of guano per gallon of soil. Use high N (10-2-1) for veg and high P (0-8-0) for flower.

Make a tea, use unchlorinated water (bottled) and mix 2 tbls guano, 1 tbls unsulphered molasses, and bubble it with a fish take bubbler for 24-36 hrs. That way you can also add other things like bone or blood meal, wormcastings and other manures into ur tea as well.
