im growing 9 clones outdoors this year. the soil itself should be quite good, lots of dark topsoil, and lots of compost, peatmoss, decaying grass clippings and organic matter. theres some bone meal in there too but i didnt add that much.

i want my plants have all the right nutrients and i want to fertilize but im worried. i will ONLY use something organic. is there a good liquid fertilizer i can add once or twice a month to make sure my plants are getting all their nutrients? wat are the NPK numbers. it has to be something that i can pick up at a nursery, and something that wont burn my plants...

WHAT DO I DO?!?! THANKS:peace::joint: fertilizing is the only part im confused about.

Blue Mountain Organics "Grow it Green". Check ebay, only $7.50 a bottle, but great quality.

I think too many people ride Fox Farms jock.

I would second the BMO Grow It Green, but you will have to use it more than once a month to have it work, espically outdoors. I would get some High N Bat Guano and add that to your soil as well. You can top dress with it during veg a couple times a month too.

Also, Fox Farm Grow Big is by no means all organic. It has organic trace elements, but the rest is synthetic.

Miracle Grow makes an "organic" 8-0-0 made from fermented sugar beat molasses.

Alaska Fish Emulsion (whatever brand) is like 10-1-1.

Both can be found at Home Depot, Wal-Mart, and local garden stores. Both are easy to use and not made of chemical soup.

I've used the former recently (MG stuff) as directed and it didn't burn anything in our garden.

Alaskan fish emulsion is 5-1-1, I would use it in conjunction with the GIG.

Get some Grandma's molasses at your supermarket instead of the MG.

A little Molasses info:

Molasses can take free nitrogen from the air and make it into a form that can be utilized by plants. The process is called nitrogen fixation. This process converts free nitrogen into nitrogen based chemical compounds or organic compounds.
The compounds formed are proteins, polypeptides, peptides and amino acids. These organic compounds are then oxidized if broken down by other bacteria into ammonia, nitrite and nitrates plus carbon dioxide and water. The nitrate form is the most readily available form of nitrogen.

What's the NPK on regular molasses?

Last I checked, bacteria and fungus fixed nitrogen. How does just plain molasses do it, and not a product made from fermented molasses?
