Looking for best DIY fertilizer for flowering marijuana plants

[Robbiebobbielobbie]

Hello all. This is my first time sharing on a forum. I’m relatively new to growing marijuana. My first crop is growing nicely. I use no artificial fertilization. I use mainly vermicast and a few other homemade fertilizer additives.
My plants are outdoors and are now in the flowering phase. I would love some suggestions to help improve general health and to maximize yield. I wish to keep it organic and diy. Any suggestions would be much appreciated. Thanks fellow gardeners

I brew compost teas.

5g Spring Water
3tbl Blackstrap Molasses
2 scoops Blue Planet soluble seaweed extract (or liquid equivalent)
1 scoop Great White mica
8tbl URB

In a strainer:
3c Organic Compost
2c Earthworm Castings
1/2c Down to Earth Flower Blend

I put a 4” air stone on the bottom of a Home Depot bucket, fill about half way, add the molasses, URB, and seaweed. Allow that to bubble while mixing your dry ingredients up.

I mix the dry up very well in a bowl, then pour into the strainer. I suspend the strainer bag a couple of inches above the air stone, pour the remaining water over the bag, let brew for 12 or 24 to 36 hours.
I use crock pot bags to cover the top of the bucket because foam will form, keep it around 75F, and out of UV light. If I run it longer that 24 hours, I add another 3tbl of molasses. If you don’t use URB, I recommend minimum 24 hour brew. Use within 3 hours.

Welcome. You came to the right place.

Welcome!

I think the idea shared above regarding nutrient teas is a great one, given your desire to stick with DIY and organic.

One additional suggestion is to focus on building fungal populations (versus bacterial) in your tea, given you were asking about flowering nutrients. Hope that helps a bit.

Awesome. Thank you. I will look into that
