Calcium fertilizer homemade
Gemini_Growstarted grow question 5 years ago
I can't leave my house, you can imagine why :)
Is there a way to make home-made calcium fertilizer?
I heard about eggs but I'm not that convinced, would be great if you know some way you also tested, thanks for your help guys

If you have vinegar then you can crush up eggshells and pour just enough vinegar over them to cover the eggshells. You want to soak it uncovered for a few weeks and keep adding vinegar to keep the eggshells covered. In about 3 weeks you will have a water soluble calcium supplement for your plants. It is slightly acidic so very easy on the dosing. But with that being said most tapwater has more than enough calcium to keep your plants happy.

@Mrs_Larimar Thank you.. Situation is not that clear so I won't order it online for now..
So would it be good if I let two or three eggshells in water for a day and then feed the plant?
Do I have to remove the shell from water before feeding?
Thanks for the interest :)

Hello, yes you can , I already made it. You can blend eggshells and feed your Plants. Maybe you have some calcium pills at home)=? . You can use them too. If you live by the sea shells do a good job too.
And btw... if you order your calcium the postman brings it to you^^... so get well soon

@geminigrow For a quick fix you could try some Whole Milk or Yoghurt Diluted with water and sprayed on Plus Egg shells contain calcium but take some time

Runoff PPMCan't really find a solid simple answer to this question anywhere.. Should my runoff PPM be half of inflow, the same, or something in between? I imagine there's a different answer whether doing feed/feed or feed/water, I'd really appreciate it if someone could map this out a bit

Outdoor Hempy Bucket fertilizer use?Added perlite and clay mix to a 10L outdoor hempy bucket, with Skunky Lady on top. Curious about hydroponics fertilizer use outdoors, should it be added early or wait for some growth when the roots hit the reservoir? Seems like it would be wasted if I add it early on....

When to introduce nutrients to coco / perlite and how to water seedling?Hi!! I am doing my first ever grow. When should I introduce nutrients to my plants in coco? They have just sprouted and I was only giving them some water with H2O2 at a PH of 6.2.
For a seedling, do I need to water until I get runoff?
Thank you!

pH woes. To water or not to water, that is the question.The tap water I've been watering my plants with is very alkaline, the pH came out to around 10 when I measured it with a digital reader. Should I water it again with pH adjusted water early or wait until the soil dries out to avoid overwatering? Soil and nutes pH was ~8.6.Week 3

PPM. 6/6,5 PH waterings or too frequent waterings?I just had a long ass session in my tent, because of increasingly higher PPM. Coco in 10gal, is every day irrigation too much? Should be said that the pot is nowhere near dry after 24hrs. Or my initial idea, 6,5 PH every other watering being too high leading to lockout? ThankssWeek 6
