    I have 3 plants in 2nd or 3rd week of flowering, is it ok to be giving them Expert Gardeners water soluble plant food or can anyone recomend something else that would be better for them? Also, can anyone tell me for sure if this is a female? Its got little white hairs and looks like its tryin to grow buds but im not sure, any advice would be greatlly appreciated! 20140910_114019.jpg 20140910_113914.jpg 20140910_114004.jpg 20140910_114029.jpg

  2. I think thats an ornamental fertilizer for housplants etc. stop using it ASAP and start flushing your soil out. what kind of soil is it in? looks like you shouldve trained that plant
     
  3. its really not good for cannabis?
     
  4. I don't believe any synthetic fertilizer to be good for any plants or people. Nothing about them is good, they assist algae blooms in local waterways from their runoff, sometimes even contain harmful PGR's. Gardening with these kind of inputs is wasteful and not at all sustainable or beneficial to your local ecosystems. Your runoff, what little there should be, should be beneficial and capable of IMPROVING your local environment, not polluting it. Not to mention they produce inferior product! I dont care how well you flush your bottle-fed gardens, the smoke NEVER compares to a fully organic nug grown in living soil with teas, probiotics and the whole nine, both in terms of potency and flavor.

    The real question is why did you bump such an old thread? :p

  6. if you want cheap your gonna get cheap results. i find a good cheap nute line is the epsoma line. i use either tomatoe tone or plant tone. works wonders

  7. Thats the wrong way of looking at it.. It's very easy to have a full organic garden on the cheap, the Organic Growing section has plenty of threads on easy soil mixes etc.
     
  8. Just saw this.. 4 years late.. but this stuff isnt as bad as theyre saying.. all it boils down to is a 3 1 2 ratio fert.. same as 12 4 8 or 6 2 4 fert.. my plants do well w it more money sometimes is better yes.. but usually just paying for a name or bag.. or because the company simply wants more money and knows psychologically youll buy something thinking quality is better based on price..
    He didnt ask for hippie save the earth advice he asked how his plants would grow
