Dry and Liquid Organic Fertilizers
VeggieTalesstarted grow question 3 years ago
Hello fellow growers I have been curious if anyone has used both liquid and dry fertilizer in their grow?
I am growing in Coco and using a super coco mix with top dress and tea with dry fertilizer.
If I add liquid fertilizer would this kill the living microbes in the coco?

you only want to supplement... super coco will take some trial and error based on how the plant reacts what you have to supplement.
irrigate with some runoff only to ensure full saturation. dry pockets aren't good and will cause all sorts of issues. You want to minimize runoff in a super coco context.
i'd stick to one brand's system of nutes... or make sure no nasty chemical reacitons occur if you do mix products. you could adversely impact pH which would wreak havoc on your microbes and nutrient availability etc etc.

Liquid nutes will definitely kill your soil and the beneficial microbes. All organic nutes will not hurt the soil or your microbial benefials. Top dress it, and water it in. I use worms to distribute and break down nutes.

Hydro - 3 strains. What consequences after slight veg overfeeding ? Do they look dark ?I've had technical issues on veg that resulted in a slight overfeeding and now they don't want to feed much (tap water 0.4 + 0.3 nutes), 5 days after 12/12. I'm not sure they will accept very much more, even when I'll introduce flo nutes. Will yield be weak ? And quality ? Thx

PH and EC problemHi, I have a problem with my plants. I´ve checked the runoff and was 7.0 PH.
When I was fertilizing I gave them nutes with PH 6.1 EC 1.2 and runoff was EC 0.4 and PH 6.8. When plain water EC 0.4 PH6.0 and 5.8, runoff EC was 0.4 -0.8, PH 6.7-7.0.
What should I do feed/not feed?

Hydroponic or soil - differences in taste?From what I can see on this website, hydroponic systems tend to give greater yields than soil-grown projects. However, I also read that the aroma is not as rich. Did someone here try to grow the same strain once in soil and once hydroponic and can give a personal taste review?Feeding. Other

Hydro - Ec stable, Ph dropping - Raise EC instead of lowering it ?I have the feeling that when there's not a lot of nutes, PH drops but it means I have to add EC, not lower it. I noticed this when I fed them with a very low EC. I added more EC and they ate a lot right away. What did you experience ? Has to do with them eating all cal-mag ? THX
