Knowledge about fertilizers/amounts

Plz just slink off quietly into the night.

 

I am. I intended for none of this craziness. If it was so wild of question to render all this...was this even necessary? Honestly, how could I know 'that' would be the overwhelming response, except for one guy? You could have been, oh, I dont know, FRIENDLY GROWERS? I am a web admin, for years. It's simple to go add a forum. 'Unconventional Growing' or the like, with a lil disclaimer for all the purists... but no, you all went this route, which is kinda fucked up. Peace Out.

 

Alrighty then.... I certainly wasn't trying to be a dick at all. I was trying to be realistic and give you a viable option. If you can't swing $20-$30 for some nutes then you can't. I get that. I am NOT a rich kid for sure. I live in a dilapidated 40 year old mobile home riddled with termites and no carpet. I barely keep the lights on myself. However I still allow myself enough money to get the basics for my grow. I can't afford the fancy high end fert lines that cost hundreds of dollars for all 12 parts or whatever but I can swing a few bucks to try and do it right.


Now to the MG products you have on hand. If you know which one is vegetative nutes meaning it has a higher N concentration that P and K use that for vegetative. Depending on how big your plants are will determine the strength to use. MG is notoriously strong so mix it at half strength and see how the plants respond. Just be careful not to overdo it. Same thing goes for flowering side of things. Use the one with high P and K for flowering but again start out with 1/2 strength and work up. If you start seeing N curl on the leaves or burnt tips or curled or burnt leaf edges back off and flush with plain water and lower the strength a bit. There is no way I can tell you exactly to add this much or that much of one or the other without knowing exactly what we're working with. Also plants are individuals like people some like it strong and others weaker so you'll have to watch the plants and respond accordingly by upping or lowering the strength of your nutrient solution.


Now I'm not really sure what you were getting at with your little explanation of crystalline and powdered vs liquid compounds and your comment "Chemistry 101 bud. LOL" If it was a dig at me I would like to say I never took chemistry but I could still outgrow you anytime, with or without shitty MG nutes! LOL


Now I have given you an answer pertaining to your MG nutes and how to use them, but I will say that you sir came across as just as much of a jerk as anyone who responded to this thread, like you said, you get what you give right?

 

I'm so rich I have other people write my responses. Especialy to people that act like a dick.


Hey, stop that.


Screw buddy. This is what you pay me for.


But you can't call him a dick.


Why not? It's you who'll get in trouble.


You prick. STOP IT!!!
