@Jays_Not_Here_Man no man Im Jay, no just kidding, yah Gaia is pretty good, my first grow which went to harvest, I used Gaia, with one plant I mixed the 4-4-4 right in the soil at the recommended mix. the final tree was short but very nice dried flower, and sticky on the tree. I didnt have enough space in my question, since it is going to be in the closet grow, I want to avoid animal products, but the synthetic is not so great either, I like Fox Farm, i read it is an salt based amino proteins, not sure what that means exactly. then other talk about chelated nutrients. I am almost decided on the botanicare, but still looking at the coco meals. thanks for mentioning Gaia, I used to be all about Langley, go team Canada.

@carjos, Mr.Canuck’s Grow on YouTube, uses 50% coco, 25% organic worm castings, and 25% perlite. He uses the Gaia Green 2-8-4 and 4-4-4 mixed when he starts the plants from seed, then doesn’t feed for like 4 weeks and does top dressing with the same mix, and then again as they enter flower. That’s it. I’m looking into this recipe and Gaia green nutrients now for my next photo period run. Good luck! 😎💨
