Hi guys I am trying to dial in my mix, feeds and soil to prepare for the upcoming bloom time. If you got a min please read and offer thoughts n ideas.
So I am not doing a full on hi brix soil. I don't even know enough about it to attempt such a thing. However my soil is healthy stuff and I want to really dial it in to get some kind killer buds at harvest that are medical grade cream of the crop, top of the top.
So heres what I got and what I feel I need:
Ok well my soil is a mix of many organic things. Manure, compost, azomite, a small bit of so po mag (sulpher potash and mag), peat moss, lime, perlite and then lots of little additives that where in my manure soil mix like oysters greensand, worm castings, n stuff.
During veg I was feeding some 5-1-1 fish fert and some 5-3-3 dry organic mix thats made from = Hydrolyzed Feather Meal, Pasteurized
Poultry Manure, Cocoa Meal, Bone Meal, Alfalfa Meal,
Greensand, Humates, Sulfate of Potash, and Sulfate of
Potash Magnesia.
Every few days I give the plants some 0-0-3 silica (dont give very much), superthrive, b-1 which also has some iron mag, and blackstrap molasses. During veg the 5-1-1 fish fert was also going in but during flower I will stop using the fish fert. I had also gave the plants about a cup each of 0-5-0 Jamaican bat guano, although I got it more for flowering time.
So now that flowering time is coming I feel like I should start feeding to prepare for it and stick more to a balanced P K mix since there should be enough nitrogen in the soil from my 5-3-3 dry mix and the manure. I also feel I should be adding a tiny bit more calcium to my plants, as when I add everything up it seems that in correlation to my other minerals it would be slightly behind especially with my mag content. And although my water supply has about 3 times the cal compared to the mag I have read I should have as much as 7 times the calcium compared to my mag.
So yeah I was hoping to think of a good way to add some Phosphorous, possibly even as a liquid since I already have 0-5-0 bat guano for slower release. Also a way to add just a small bit of Calcium too.
My ideas are
Lime for Calcium then just using extra bat guano for the P
Rock phosphate for both
crushed eggshells for calcium with more bat guano for P
Gypsum for cal and more bat guano for P... lol
and thats it for my ideas so far.
If you took the time to read all this thank you very much and I look forward to hearing some ideas.
