Hi folks
I've been using a range or products made locally in the UK for a couple of years now and they are really good stuff. I have been chatting to the company about making me some nutes to my own specification and they said 'sure, no problem' and when I asked how much they could sell me they replied '1 litre or 1 thousand, make no odds to us'. You see, this company sell to farmers and the horticulture industry, they have no direct sales to the public, just luckily I know them well, having worked at a company next door for years. This means they produce a huge range of nutrient products for different crops and their mark-up is a fraction of that being added on by companies who sell cannabis specific nutrients.
So this got me thinking, would people be interested in buying organic nutes designed specifically for cannabis but without the high prices charged by cannabis-specific nute companies?
My current thinking for products is these 6 items:
1. Seaweed Extract - from North Atlantic kelp, superb stuff, I have been using it for years.
2. General Veg nute - based on seaweed and various manures, NPK 8-5-5
3. General Bloom nute - based on seaweed and various manures, NPK 4-8-8
4. Humates - liquid worm humus plus some other goodies
5. Bloom Booster - organic alternative to PK13-14, based on manures and guanos.
I'm looking at a retail price of around 5.99 ukp per litre plus shipping, perhaps I will offer the 5 bottle set for 24.99 ukp, there are a load of details to be worked out, but I'm just interested at this point in seeing if there is a market for these goodies.
