Sea 90 Minerals As Hydro Nutrient: Anybody Have Experience?

I read about it several years back, and tried it to bad results. No doubt pilot error

Just bought 20 pounds to remineralize my yard/lawn and to take internally

But my question is: Does anyone hace success and what is the ratio also do you add CaMg?

thanks

Probably not, it has a lot of mag/cal already. (edit: Actually, they recommend calc-nit. The mag is already quite high)

My understanding is that it's not marketed as a standalone hydroponics product. It's marketed as something to use in addition to your regular fertilizer.

Ill have to order NPK N and Ca before I begin next grow

Do you think I can use it by itself during the last ~ 2 weeks of bloom

The pdf clearly lists what's in it. The recommendations are useful like any other mfg's recommendations, you start with 1/4 and work from there. As you're aware, cannabis is a light feeder.

Pick a nutrient mix and see what adding Sea-90 does to the numbers. Is it close to what you consider a balanced mix for your genetics? Use your standard mix first, if any. You're going to harvest the most useful information if you do a control experiment, using what you already use and are familiar with. Any other approach is pretty much guessing.

Anyone who's used it is going to tell you the same, or should anyway.

from your first response, it sounded like you are experienced with it

Seems like using SEA 90 sea minerals +adding NPK Industries RAW silica, Yucca, N, C, and in bloom adding P & K could bring home a stellar crop, but how much better than just using NPK RAW premixed veg and bloom would take testing

I used both NPK premixed this grow but Fd up not realizing they were completely balanced and therefor I added more; silica, kelp, humic acid throwing the balance off

So, I do want to start my next grow using just the NPK premixes.

I bought the SEA 90 for my lawn and personal use, plus to eventually try it for cannabis, as it would save a lot of money

Sea90 contains all 90+ naturally occurring elements, compared to Azomite and rock dust that has around 60 or so.

5 ml per gallon of water is the rate I use (but I do not grow hydro) for both root feeding and foliar feeding.

For lawn application, I would not apply it directly from the bag--rather I would make a liquid solution and spray it.

For garden/raised bed application I would spread it dry, work it in then water well.

Hope this helps!

It really helps to understand "what the product is" and "how this product affects what I have balanced out for my cannabis." It doesn't sound like you know what you're normally feeding your cannabis, nor what this product is actually for.

You're going to have to do some more research with your own methods, unless someone chimes in with the experience you're looking for. I know cannabis well enough to give advice about cannabis. Sea-90 is nothing special. FYI, it's Douglas.Curtis, not Douglas, Curtis.

Use this and comparitive (sea-crop, earth tonic, Him. pink salt) products on both medical and edible garden. Yes, there is a good amount of Mag in these products, but not a lot of Cal. I use them in combination with a natural Cal source such as guano or bone meals. Ag Lime would also work as very low Mag but high Cal source. BTW I LOVE these products. Both drench and foliar. I can tell they work by flavor (I'm a chef), but for empirical data I just purchased a BRIX refractometer, I'll report back on that. Highly recommended for trace elements, which are often foolishly ignored...Help as a foliar with pests and pathogens too, bugs and PM hate it.
