Matanuska Valley's Grow Journal

[Brett2theMax]

I have a plant that I started out on chemical nutes, its in soil, but I have quit using the chemical nutes and flushed them and have just been on water. I am into flower right now and would like to put in some Organics and was curious as to what NPK I should have during flower and what are good sources of it. I know I will need nitrogen so I was going to pick up some dried blood because thats all nitrogen 12-0-0 but what else should I get for the Phosphate and the Potasium? I hear bat-guano is good, but do I want it right now?

ahhh yes brett... that would be my area... i'm all about the blood meal... that's my source of N... as for P, bone meal takes care of that... i think it's 1-13-0... and for K, I use potash... a lot of different brands have different kinds that break down at different rates and whatnots... you use a lot less of the K, since potash is something like 0-0-60... all you need really after that is the secondary nutes

I was just wondering...when i'm in late flowering can i clip some of the fan leaves off the side buds to allow extra light to the lower growth?? The plants are in a pretty small space and are really growing wild..


anyways man

If you do that, then you are inhibiting the bud growth. Each time you cut a leaf, the plant expends energy to repair itself, which takes away from bud development. As in nature - only the strong survive! Most buds WILL turn out fine. There is such a thing as too many buds for a plant to survive, so its always nice to have those few under-developed ones underneath. Besides they are excellent to use for some of the other mmj bi-products, ie: cannabutter. If every bud was meant to develop then all strains would have developed a better stem growth to hold up all the weight. :60:
