So, we are about a month into our first major outdoor grow here in NorCal.
We have 40 ladies in 150gal smartpots....
so far we have top-dressed twice with a great new product called Mr. B's GreenTrees 7-4-4... we are using the organic formula which contains the following:
Seabird Guano, Fish Meal, Kelp Meal, Bat Guano,
Fish Bone Meal, Rock Phosphate, Blood Meal, Langbeinite,
Ferrous Sulfate, Dolomite, Neem Meal, Sulfate of Potash,
Oyster Shell, Feather Meal, Greensand, Volcanic Ash, Glacial Rock Dust.
2.0 % Humic Acid (Derived from Leonardite)
yes, it is a laundry list of ingredients, and also includes about a dozen species of mycorrihzae, which cant imagine that the mycos are doing much of anything in a topdress application.
this stuff does work well at an application of 1cup per 150gal pot, but I want to try to find something more economical that will accomplish the same thing with a simpler formula..... do I really need all those minerals?
We have been feeding with this stuff about every 10 days and I pay $110 for a 40lb bucket of this stuff, which lasts about a month.
We also do ACT soil drenches weekly, with a simple recipe of just EWC and molasses. I can only aerate my tea for 24hrs on deep cycle batteries, so a longer brew is not possible.... Hence I prefer to top-dress my nutes separately in-between the ACT drenches.
Can anyone critique this nutrient and my feeding regimen and perhaps recommend something equally effective for less cost?
