ok community im in a dilemma...i dont post much but im def not a newb had a fair share of grows with success with my totally customized 600w led(Chinese, but i picked wavelengths, 3w60deg angle and ratios) strains: spr haze, purple haze, raw diesel and armageddon my babies are 3wks into flowering and are showing deficiencies in happy frog soil. im certain its phosphorus but im extremely low on nutes. I have the complete line of fox farms but the big 3 are basically empty. and I wont be able to replace them until next wk(it sucks). I cannot bare to see my crop worsen for a wk while i watch helplessly!! Now I have some whey protein powder they i take and i noticed how it has nearly complete nute list: Calcium; Iron; Phosphorus; Magnesium; Copper; Potassium..(extras; Sodium, Protein, Carbs, Sugar,Creatine and Amino's**)
So Ive done some research and found that nitrogen will become available once the amino acids break down in the soil like a slow release fert.. and that creatine will have a smiliar effect on plants as in humans by increasing nutrient uptake and as well as oxygen, all sounds well as a alternative to conventional nutes(@ 12$ for 2lbs). Ive read that it is widely used in farm industry because whey is a byproduct of cheese, they've found interesting uses for the waste. the farmers liberally spread it on the soil every grow season as a ssoil amendment. I need to figure how i will make this work for me.
Im thinking about adding 1scoop (26g) to a gallon of water and watering as i normally do nutes 2wice per wk regular water in between. this will only be done in the mean time until i get my new supply of foxfarms. I need some insight, what do ya'll think should be the ratio? keep in mid the plants are deficient.
need some comments yall.
