Do you want to cut corners or grow killer weed?
Salts would be the cheapest, lots of recipes here too
Might be a little overwhelming for a beginner though

I'd suggest looking into organics, but well sourced organic ferts aren't always cheap

Yeah, I'd like to build my own, know what's going into my plants, maybe a "greener" alternative than some chems.

Might try some new things. Got a few ideas for a brewed concoction that should deliver a good boost. Once I get it going I'll let you know how it turns out.

Look up the thread on Fatman's nutrient guide to mixing if you wanna go with the chems, and look up fermented plant juice if you're interested in organics.

I did a decent Garden on nothing but Horse sh** tea. Just took two trash cans. One with holes in it inside the other, filled with Horse waste and water, left it in the sun for a few days. with the help of my wife removed the inside can ( with holes) and then kept air stones in the tea until I used it all up.

That is a " simple " method, but imagine you will have better results if you follow a more complete recipe with worm castings and the like.

Please share with us what you end up trying.

I was thinking of making a whack mix. Little bit of evaporated milk, diluted tomato juice and maybe some coffee grounds. I might try it on my smaller plant that doesn't seem to be vigorous. I might add a few secret ingredients but I'm not sure. Anything I shouldn't use?

I figure my pH is probably close to 7, haven't checked, thought maybe the acidity of the tomato juice might bring it down a little.
