Botanicare Pure Blen Pro is suppose to do well. I'm using a semi local company called Cutting Edge Solutions that is suppose to be organic or semi organic at the least I can't remember. I think only certain stuff of theirs is OMRI listed. It's still doing my plants really good though.

My grow shop had a Customer Appreciation party yesterday and I met a vendor from Cutting Edge Solutions... He gave me a few samples of the company's fungi cultures.

How local is semi local? :blsmoke:

I didnt read all the posts in this thread so sorry if Im repeating something.

Ive been slowly making the switch to organic feeding. Right now Im using Mexican Bat Guano for veg. Its the best veg nute Ive used in soil. I didnt get the other kind for flowering but will do so soon. I havent had any over/under feeding issues.

I top dressed the soil with the guano when I transplanted clones almost a month ago and still have no need to use anymore. Just water.

Wish I would have started off using this stuff. It would have saved me a plant or two or along the way.

when i clean out the chook pen i put all the shit i gather into a old cloth nappy bucket and fill with water, i stir it every second day, i leave the shit in the water for about a week before i use it to water the plants, when i do water the plants with it i give them about a litre of the diluted chook shit water, i had 3 buckets going watering my plants every 3 days, i only had 2 chooks in the pen, also i grew outdoors and when my babies are in the pots i use the soil from the chook pen to put in the pots as this is allready got good nitrogen levels. Power feed is in a green bottle it is made by the same company that makes seasol, yes it is available in WA well it should be, i know its available in qld which where i live now and NSW and VIC

I am not experienced growing marijuana, YET, but I'm already working on transplanting my fourth batch of seedlings, all to finish up this year. I burned some plants with fish emulsion, so I can tell you it's possible. You have to go with 50% more than the recommended dosing, that's all it takes. It STINKS, to high heaven. I wish I'd just purchased the liquid seaweed extract earlier. I swear, I think I'm gonna try cooking with that stuff, it smells like some excellent Asian flavoring sauce!

Don't use fish emulsion as a foliar feed unless your goal is to attract flies and make it impossible to sleep (our bedroom is what's on the other side of my garden, click my gallery and you'll see the setup). :lol: I think it requires gentle use, a strong stomach, a stronger nose, and I'll probably use it for the trees that are FAR from the house instead. If mixed properly and used quickly, it's a great way to quickly get nitrogen to the plants, if that's what is needed. It didn't work as quickly as I'd hoped, though.

If your plants are growing, are not showing yellowing or other issues, then leave them be is what I say. In other words, if it ain't broke, yeah? You could scratch in some guano or worm castings, a type of quickie top dressing if you're really worried about it. I would honestly suggest you do a search on Ohsogreen's posts, the guy gives very explicit instructions and explains a lot of stuff along the way, fantastic (and he got me a small freebie from Blue Mountain Organics, the makers of Super Plant Tonic that I'm gonna be trying out starting today).

Aquarium water is something I WISH I had. It's great for all sorts of plants. It's been filtered biologically, has fish poop that's also been broken down, and tends to be soft unless you're keeping fishes that seriously need hard water (such as certain types of African rift lake cichlids) and you've set up the system to meet those. Most tropical freshwater fish that are kept, though, do well in all types of water, and many, especially New World cichlids, prefer softer, acidic water, which just happens to be what our mary jane likes.

I was just talking to my husband the other day about a bin I'm using to store my filtered water that is also combined with what little rainwater I could gather and how I'd like to drop in some crawdaddies. We get food for ourselves, and food for the plants. :D

I use sucanat it's pretty cheap and available at any decent natural/organic food store. I prefer the NOW brand because it is ground much finer than most so it mixes much easier. If you look in the subcool sub-forum there is an entire thread explaining why sucanat is such a good product.

Well, if sucanat is good, then good old palm sugar should be, too. The stuff that comes in a little pyramid, you'd have to get it at an Asian or Mexican market probably, or maybe a Filipino market might have it.
