    Default Coco Hempy: Possible to use Organic Nutes?

    I know this might have been posted somewhere else or the info is all around.. at the moment im really confused and in need of some help on a few things first.. feel better when im hearing it from you guys..afterall its where ive learnt most of what I know!

    :Medium:
    Coco Hempy
    25%perlite 75% coco

    Nutrients (hard water)
    Canna Coco a+b N-P-K (5-4-3)
    Rhizotonic
    Cannazym
    Pk 13/14
    Blackstrap Molasses
    Silicon

    I’m having a a little difficulty getting my head round organic nutrients in hydro(hempy) and if its possible in my case.. only recently touched on the subject so have a few questions..

    please try and contain your laughter for the next few mins ! It will be hard..not familiar with organics/compost teas yet allot to learn.. if you can’t help it but find humour from another mans misfortune ..in this case me! Feel free i fully understand and would only do the same in your shoes .. atleast share the joke..lol here goes….

    4 Plants are 4 weeks into 12/12 in 1litre pots which are cuts growing ahead of the bigger ones just to get a better understanding of each strain and improve my skills from my previous attempt.. their about 10 inches tall..looking ok with no signs of deff apart from the odd yellow leaf.. using cana coco a + b, silicon & mixing it up here and there with molasses,canazym,pk 13/14..

    Wondering if you could you use an alternative organic boost instead of canna boost due to costs or will I have to change the whole line of nutrients to organic?

    I had in mind maybe to brew something as its something I eventually want to go into. hoping I can get away with using just a brewed boost along side my current nutes fro now till I learn the rest or make a feed for the last 2 weeks..somthing more focused for the end, would that be possible? So cut of hydro nutes and use organic compost tea for the last few weeks..?

    Do they need to be added much sooner to allow time to release certain micros in medium or the brewing does that so I can use it at any time of the grow and it should be good?

    there many ingredient to choose from such as bat guano, sea weed, fish meal crab meal, worm castings .. etc.. do I only to need to buy a select few depending on what I brew or will I need specific concentrations of each which means I should have most ingrediants above at hand?

    let me know if im on the right track please….. there so much to soak up as im trying to get it done soon so I can start feeding my plants for it to have an effect on them their nearly half way into flowering..

    im so puzzled from all the additives aswell.. there loads to choose from..
    Im using molasses for the second time and wondering if bud candy is better to use?

    this now comes under carbohydrate additives. right. Ive learned most are just marketing although a select few do really help and work if used correctly.. im hoping to achive that sometime in the future too lol

    plesse guys/girls could you share some of your wise words of wisdom with me.. once again! Much apprecieated


    thanks for looking..

    I'm using canna hydro Flores a+b / big bud / pot ash and monster bloom with hygrozyme
    in a 80/20 perlite/vermiculite hempy bucket.
    And I'm not complaining.
    First time using this combo.
    Big bud will be for week 2-4 and will replace with molasses from week 4- finish.
    The rest is all the way from week 2-finish

    lol you can flower any size pot, if you read it he said he playing with the strains

    simba you a bit mixed up with organics and teas and a boost (pk 13/14) a tea isnt a boost per say, a tea is bennys and fungi in their millions
    and should be used from the start in small quantiles once a week or it can really upset your ph in a hemp bucket, it drives it up if you try to use teas every watering so ive found have i given you some links for teas?
    here they are
    http://faq.gardenweb.com/faq/lists/o...739009975.html
    http://www.microbeorganics.com/#Video_Microbulator
    http://perfectperennials.tripod.com/id12.html
    and this yahoo group has some fantastic info if you look for it and they will answer any questions you have
    stuff like you cant store aact like many seem the think you can, or you can but you lose the micro life quick style
    http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/compost_tea/
    there is many more sites to read for info but the guy that owns the http://www.microbeorganics.com site is the real deal and on the yahoo group he will give you honest info that is correct
    you can tailor teas to you needs have a good read and you learn shit loads bro

    teas are for dirt manly but they do work well in mediums that can support micro life like coco and some are using them in active hydro with good results (bio buckets) ive found dont over do the teas, start small and see what it does before you chuck to much in
