hey everybody, do any of you growers out there know of a good organic tea that would be good for two plants just starting to flower,and one about two and a half weeks into it? Somthing with a good amount of nitrogen, alot of phosphorus, and just a bit more potassium than N. :XXhippylove:
I believe alfalfa meal makes a good tea and also sprinkle some on the soil top. has a 4-1-1 rating I understand. it depends on what materials you have. There is lots of stuff to make teas from. I often feed with fishemulsion but some find it smelly. Same too with liquid kelp. Nitrogen and trace there. What materials do you have access to?
I have some fertilome 5-59-8 ithink, its chemical though, I have mixed guano, epsom salt, and dolomite into a tea and it worked well, do you think I can make a tea with the chem's?
I'm not a big fan of guanos as teas for veg but I do add it in flowering to my liquid feeding program. Well using a chemical fert.. Is a thing un to itself. About a flowering mix. I was putting bone meal in the soil a little at a time in my feeding layers but I also made teas from bone meal soaked in hot water. I use crawfords micronized compost , kelp, molasses, coffee and sea bird guano high in P.
Stay away from chemical based ferts of anykind. Listen to Randy about those fish emulsions and kelp, with some nitrogen based organics. Better than the bat guano and less stressful on the plants than the chems.
I try not to be some guy that spews crap on how others grow. Like Herb says there are many ways to grow a plant. But I know from experience that a living soil produces the best buds fo me.
