Is this from your perfect soil mix that finishes releasing nutrients in sync with the time that the plant takes to mature?
perfect soil mix?
ive never added more than ewc and now i only top dress it and guano, MAYBE a lil dr earth
now im using earth juice, before that I was using pure blend original, used everything else at some time or another before that. started a long long time ago with good ol' gh when green air products still made nutes and had zappa hidden on the box
my plants always get fed and treated in that manner and i get very similar results
i prefer organic and microbial active soil but i like to brew and drop in the food and microbes
if organic precursors were more available than liquid nutes and i had the proper space to compost and rotate soil in a full life cycle maybe it would be different
