Thanks AKDrifter

I'm glad that you liked the guides.

Regarding the kelp additives, I use a commerical extract on my indoor grow but for the plants that I grow outdoors I use real kelp and sea weed that I collect. I cut it into little pieces and add it to some compost. I usually make my own organic fertilizer for outdoor grows. I start with the compost and then add a number of things to boost it up a bit. Stuff like like sea shells, charcoal and sawdust for example, works great.

I guess that you could make your own kelp teas but the commerical stuff is not that expensive and outdoors it's easier to just add the organic material to the soil.

If you are looking for the commerical stuff, I can highly recommend the Alg-A-Mic from BioBizz, it's a very nice product.

Whats up?

I'm a big kelp advocate & that Alg a Mic looks like some really good stuff.
Mine is almost gone, time to try it out.

Hey Chef

Yeah, Alg-A-Mic is good stuff alright. It does go bad after a few months so you might as well use a lot of it while it's still fresh. I burn through a bottle of it pretty fast. Plants love it and it's great for foliar feeding as well.

Thanks, I'm glad that you liked it.

It should help you get started. There is more to learn but you will pick that up along the way.

Even if you are not new to growing, you might still find some of the information interesting.

Good luck and have fun
