a few questions about my organic setup | | Hi. I'm new to organics, and growing in general. I have read a lot of info on this site and have a pretty good grasp on most aspects of growing. Now, I have a plant. It is planted in soil that says it has phosphorus already added. I put some blood meal, bone meal, and kelp meal into the soil when I transplanted my plant from a small cup to a 5 gallon bucket. I put a normal amount of blood meal, and small amounts of bone meal and kelp meal. I put small amounts of bone meal because it is mainly high in phosphate and my soil already has phosphorus in it ( i'm assuming phosphate is phosphorus or something like it). Anyway I read it takes awhile for the Bone Meal to start working, so I plan on making some tea from it ( i'm assuming here that I don't heat it like normal tea). Now I was wondering if the kelp meal starts acting fast?, and do I need to throw a little of that into the tea ( if kelp meal even works that way? ) And as far as straining goes, can I just throw my mixture in w/ the proper amounts of water into a spray bottle and let the nozzle strain out the chunks? Any and all advice is greatly appreciated. Thanks for reading all of this. |
