Hey guys. I have questions about fertilizer use in a peat moss base.
So a few days after transplanting my seedlings from miracle gro (I know my b), it occurred to me that peat moss doesn’t supply any nutrients to the plant. I went and picked up 2 different fertilizers that were as close to a safe 3-1-1 ratio as possible. I got Alaska fish fertilizer 5-1-1, and Dr. Earth pure gold 1-1-1. Dr earth has a whole page about using their products for cannabis growing, but I’m still hesitant after putting them in miracle gro. I’m wondering if anyone has any experience using these, or if the only thing I need to be concerned about is the NPK ratio. It is definitely worth mentioning that after the transplant one of my (hopefully girls) is thriving, while the other one is likely not going to make it. The one doing better had more miracle gro left on it when I transplanted it, but that might just be because I didn’t damage the roots.
So what do you guys think? Are these fertilizers safe? Do I need to fertilize in the first place? Let me know. I’ve included images of both of the fertilizers. As well as my healthy and unhealthy plants. Thanks!
