Questions on Bat Guano

[FunkDoctor]

Couple quick questions I haven't seen in searching yet...

Can using too much guano "lock up" any nutrients, specifically phosphorus if it's a high P guano like Jamaican?

Also, it says to use at 3 tablespoons per gallon of water every 4 weeks. I have heard guanos can be used sparingly and only applied every 3rd watering.

I have also heard others say use them every watering, otherwise you will lack phosphorus

finally, can one use guano on last watering and have it NOT affect taste or build up whatesover? nothing less than clear white ash is acceptable

any insight would be great, thanks

Guano is high release it can throw off your ph and burn

I use a stong N tea once towards end of veg and a strong P tea about 3 weeks into flowering every 2nd or 3rd watering until about 10 days before harvest.

you can burn with guano but its hard cause it is organic and needs to be broken down by microbs.but you can bur the shit out of them with sea bird fertilizer.

wow i never used more then 1/2 cup in 4 gallons of water myeslf. so using 3 tbsp in a gallon i reckon be a problem.

depends on the guano .. i have some guano that says to use 1 cup per gallon to make a tea, so i guess as long as you follow the instructions on your guano you should be all good
