The brand I buy from doesnt say in which part of the world they get it from but pure bat guano never has a lot of nitrogen compared to phosphorus, the variations in nutrients from bats from different parts of the world is not very big. The thing is that many brands call their product bat guano and while it has bat guano they dont mention unless you read the label that its mixed with other guanos or enriched with something else to have a more all purpose NPK ratio.

Top Crop Superguano Composition​

Superguano contains many nutrients, among which we can highlight:

Nitrogen: 1%
Phosphorus: 10.5%
Potassium: 0.2%
Calcium: 31%
Magnesium: 2%
Boron: < 2 ppm
Copper: 260 ppm
Iron: 14,350 ppm
Manganese: 3,400 ppm
Zinc: 1,000 ppm


pH: 8.2


The price for the 5kg bucket above is 26 euros. Its a spanish company.

Im thinking... maybe there's bat guano farms, in which case the diet can change radically the NPK ratio. I only get my bat guanos from brands that collect them from wild bat caves deep in nature. This brand in particular assures that the bats the guano come from live in caves deep in the wild and have a normal bat diet.
"happy frog cavern culture" I guess the name says it all, also collected from wild bats that live in caves and probably with no additives.

No. Weed smells like carboxylic acids. Sulfur does nothing. Who told you this? The amount of S needed for thiols is absolutely miniscule. Every fert on the market has plenty from cheap trace mineral sulfates. Thiols get their S from Cysteine, exclusively. Which is a protein synthesized from nitrogen. So the point is moot, when pot growers pay zero attention to protein metabolism or transcription factors.

All your weed forum theories are nothing more than people mocking you and wrecking your weed. I hope you know that. I hope you know grow forums were the worst thing to ever happen to weed.

\/ How amazing do you imagine this weed was? \/

View attachment 2373747

My client says he threw it in a dumpster, so I imagine it was pretty bad when he came to me for help, after the internet forums ruined his crop with literal sabotage. This is what happens when you listen to gurus and dump on a bunch of potassium sulfate "for da terps". Your weed goes in the trash and now your soil is overloaded with sulfur and makes mineral balancing a nightmare for 99.99% of crop consultants.






Tell us who spreads this nonsense so we can stop listening to their lying ass and kick them off whatever stage they've glued themself to.




Magnesium to Manganese ratio determine malevonic vs methyl erithritol 4 phosphate pathway activity. In the fake pot expert lingo that would be "Manganese for monoterps, Magnesium for medicinal terps" yet no fake pot experts can seem to get that out.

Im pretty sure its a secondary account and someone hurted his feelings so now he says forums are the worst to happen to weed. I can think of many times we helped people get their plants back on track, I cant think of any instance at this moment in the 2 years that Ive been here or so that someone said "hey you fucked up my plants". Even if we know we think what is the problem we take precautions and try to make the person run tests before doing anything critical. Im sorry but never in my life I produced unsmokable weed that had to be thrown away unless it was partially due to pests, Im sure his client is one of those that cant keep the nute bottles closed for more than 3 days. And who believes a random stranger anyway even if its a weed forum? When someone tells me something new I double check with google just in case but I learned many things in the forum and a true grower never stops learning, specially now that more studies are being funded.

I use 1 tablespoon per gallon 2 gallons with no nutes. I use it around once per month and then a couple of times in the final 2 weeks.
