id say your best option would be buy a 33 gal trash can,a good commercial air pump,and make tea once a week to feed them and if they need water in between so be it water,but feed once weekHi peeps,
I have some large girls that are fading from the bottom up. They are all in various stages of bloom phase most only week 1-2. What is the best organic all round fertiliser for bloom cycle? I use worm juice but they appear to need more nutes.
I have used expensive organic liquid fertilisers and cheap alternatives but find it very hard to find the right dose. Would prefer a slow release low maintenance option to feed these girls.they are outdoor organic plants. Northern Lights, Hollands Hope and Strawberry Cough.
Any help or guidance appreciated.

this is what i do indoors but would still apply outdoors
fungal tea one week
next week bacterial tea
next week humbolt secrets 2 part organic nutes
repeat,like i said in between i just water,just something to think about,with those plants right there id say you need to be feeding them right about 1000ppm,i believe that do them good,even outdoors you can control what goes in to some point,if the rain and heat aint braking down your plants feed them by the hannah scale,but with tea i dont think you could go wrong,when you make tea you are making concentrate also so you will dilute your tea to satify your plant needs at the stage of growth they are,so some what control outside hahahah
Thanks for you advice I will definitely give this a go. I have a pump and trash can and can make worm tea. How do I make fungal tea?Plan=plant
Thanks for your input. Will definitely try this. Are those ingredients for fungal tea easy to come by?fungal tea
2 pounds fungal compost,meaning manures and your basic compost,even compost from your yards
3-4 tbsp humic acid
2 tbsp yucca extract
4 tsp dry kelp or 2tbsp liquid kelp
4-5 tsp of fish hydrolysate<<<<this is not same as emulsions
bacterail tea
1.5 lbs bacterial compost or vermicompost,more humus i nit the better,your looking for a live compost in other words,the difrence from fungal is it is mainly greens and manures,the bacterail is shooting for more forest type huimus
3-4 tbsp black strap molases
2 tbsp liquid kelp or 4tsp of dry kelp
3-4 tsp of fish EMULSIONS
both these recipe are for 10 gal of water,i usally go 24 to 36 hours bubbling,i dont have a microscope
when it is done you can put your ppm meter in it to see how much you need to dilute it for what stage your plants are at,dilute and feed
i feed fungal once week and water if needed during week,
bacterail the next week same water during week
next weekend i feed humbolt secret nutreints what ever you usally feed works the same,so shift um up feed the teas once a week and let your soil work for you instead of feeding the plant,let the plant take from the soil instead
hope this helps ,im liking it,mainly cause the tea is a lot cheaper to make than buying expensive nutrients and the tea does a better job in my opinion,my plants are 5 weeks in flower and i still dont have a tip burn,thats a big acomplisment for me hahahah
good luck hope this helps,all the products can be obtained locally even over seas i believe

This looks dope...going to build one this weekend. I have been using old beer brewing bucket with tap, grain bag for the castings and a small aquarium pump. Can see the value of this frame to disperse the air and a more powerful pump. Thanks for sharingHere are some plans and a videoEnjoy

The making and use of compost tea has not been scientifically validated by Oregon State University. Use your own judgment and discretion when making and using compost tea. There are currently no USDA standards about what makes "good" compost tea.www.scribd.com
Are worm castings enough or do I nerf to add other additives mentioned above?Best too avoid manure in your tea and just use a good compost. Vermicasting is a good substitute, and you can use bat guano or rabbit poop. But other manures are asking for pathogen problems (especially if you're new to brewing).
