can i feed the plants with nutrients even if the soil has already addings from the beggining ?

or can i feed the plants only if the plants are in organic soil without addings?

or the both way are correct?

(what kind of soil do i need to feed plants ? organic or normal soil?)

(i have AN sensi grow and bloom products)
(i have both organic soil (pure) and normal soil which i bought it from one of a market which has already some chemical things in it )

Well, if ya think about it, no matter what the medium is, a plant only needs fed when it needs fed. If the soil still has the nutes to keep it healthy, then it doesn't need fed. If those nutes have been depleted, then the plant will need fed. So, it's your job to figure out when those nutes have been depleted, which nutes are lacking, and which aren't, etc....For mediums that have no nutes to start with(like coco), it's your job to supply them from the beginning. Does that help?

the plants grow fast in soil which has addings (originally)
but my organic soil has no fertilizer (compost).
so i added some warm casting and bat guano. and i wonder if i use sensi product in this case, will it be too much for plants ?

Wow man, that's impossible to answer. We have no idea how big your plants are, what stage they're in, what they look like, etc....We need info, brotha, if we're to be able to help ya. Pics would speak 1000 words, as well. :wink:

hehe
bro forget the normal soil and the plants in. they are doing well...
and my organic soil is in the pot but there is no plant in it yet :)
when i bought this organic soil, it had only some perlit and some very necesary values.
i added some bat guano and warm casting in this organic soil. (because it was very pure before i added those guanos or castings)
and now my new born babies are ready to be planted in the pots which has organic soil with bat guano and warm casting...

my question is: during the vegging period, will that soil need sensi grow ?

and some people say " if your soil is organic you may use nutes " and " if your soil is not organic (which means for sale in markets) then dont use nutrients because they already have values in this type of soil because you can burn them" ...

i wish i could speak better in your language but so hard for me lol

these are the plants in regular soil i bought them from a shop.
and the owner of the shop told me that "if you feed plants with nutrients like sensi when the plants are in that soil, you may burn, so buy and use organic soil with sensi product" he said.

I don't mean to sound like a dick, but,...I already answered that, in my first response. Yes, they will need extra fert when they've depleted what you've already added. That'll take a few weeks. If you only plan to veg them for a couple weeks, then...no, they probably won't need fed til flowering. If you want to veg them for 5 years, then...yes, you'll be feeding them for 5 years. :razz: For now, you should be watching so that what you've already added, won't be too strong for the seedlings. :)

lol ok so i can use sensi grow product with anykind of soil. both organic and other types.. as long as the soil needs to be fertilized.
nutrient subject is a bunch of shit.
to try and gain experience is the best way to see ...

thanks for your explainations.

^Yeah, it can be frustrating, at first.lol Don't worry, it'll continue to become easier, as you learn, and get more experience under your belt. I still run into plenty of problems, questions, unknowns, etc... and always will. Keeps things interesting, right? :wink:


Oh yeah... yep, you're correct. Sensi-grow can be used with any type of soil. Also, I'm glad I could help some, and hope I didn't come off as rude, or arrogant? I'm just trying to get my point across, is all. I tend to be somewhat 'blunt', at times. :peace:

you can use foods in any type of soil. all that means is the store stuff or what you call store stuff has food to help out a bit for a few weeks then tis gone. anything we buy in the store has food in it even if it dosnt label it. like pro mic has between 700 and 900 ppm as new but nothing on it saying this.,just dont use ground dirt, may have bad pathogens or bugs in it.

the sunshine #4 or promix hp or bx are probably the easiest to learn on and use,.the hp was made for what we want to use as well. more perilite in it for more o2 in root zone
