Fertilizer question

[Aratilis]

I'll be starting my first grow in a weeks time... I've been reading a lot regarding soil indoor cultivation but i still have a lot of questions regarding chemical fertilizers. i

also, i live in the philippines and we dont have hydro shops here or anythng like that so the goods for growing weed are very limited.

i have a URL here of our local fertilizer producer most of the gardening shops carry their products.

Ramgo International Corporation - products

can you guys help me which is the best to get if any? for both vegetative and flowering and foliar too.

thanks

See if they have 'Fox Farm' products. A lot of members here use it with great success.

you can take a fertalizer and dalude it to make it a little weaker and try that.just stay away from slow relase pelets and such.and if your plant starts to get chem burn(chemical burn) mix a little calcium in it.pure calcium might be hard to find.i just go to a pet store and get calcium for scorpians and it works great.....start in small amounts and pre mix it first

thanks! now thats a good info i can use

what do you think of this? is it ok to feed this to my plants? i need a bit of help how to mix this with water, i mean the strength of it, how much shoukld i put ? I hope you can provide me with a bit of knowledge cause im just a dumb newbie trying to grow my own buds in a country where most of the goods are limited. we dont have fox farm here or anything like that so i have to make do with whats available. thanks !

thanks action1, but it says on the directions spray fertilizer on the leaf and at the base of the plant. What I know and researched is that you water your plants not spray feed it. foliar is a different feeding altogether right? can you enlighten me on this. if Im going to use this for watering does 1/4 strength still advisable?

here's the photo of the directions:

Caution: Use this above in a soil application process only, Until you become familiar with any type of "foliar feeding" (applied thru the leaves and or flowers)
@ 2TBS per 16 liters is ok to start with, as directed< use this as a guidleine Base, and see what transpires with this application< you may at that time increase or decrease the amounts, depending on your results.

thanks cherma! so not 1/4 strength then eh? is it ok to drench my pot with this mix or there should be a certain amount of how much i will pour in the soil? forgive my dumb questions

 

[Cherma]

No, do not drench the pots> a moist light watering then see what results you have> Careful not to over water> you can always add more, it is much harder to take it back out>
remmeber to start out with the 30-10-10 then switch to the 15-15-30 into flower stages: small doses, small steps, obtain results and keep us posted>

you acually got a fertalizer that will help it has a lot of the goods you need in it... just watch out for wilting leaves.and remember flushing is a last resort. try calcium to lower ph....

 

[Aratilis]
