Hi everyone,
I have a question regarding mixing organic and mineral fertilizers and feeding.
I am a fairly new grower and have currently only been using the BioTabs lineup pre-amending the soil, adding bacterias, brewing tea etc, but I've only watered with tap water and no other ferts applied.
But recently I've been interested in trying out Advanced Nutrients lineup, and noticed they have both mineral and organic in their products and schedules.
I am growing in soil (Biobizz light-mix + added perlite).
If I use the Sensi or 3-part base ferts and mineral additives they have with Voodoo Juice, Tarantula, Piranha, Bud Candy and other organic ferts from their lineup, won't the mineral salts harm the bacterias in the organic products and make them less effective or just straight kill the bacterias?
And my other question is regarding how to feed and the feeding frequency.
Using only water and having slow-release tabs so far, I've never had to actually feed my plants with liquid solutions.
I remember reading when you feed with mineral ferts, you need to water until there is runoff, does that apply for a mix of mineral + organic ferts?
In the Advanced Nutrients schedule, they have ml/l per week. Does that mean that you feed only once per week, and not with each watering?
If you are doing only water, do you also water until runoff, or just about?
And if it's ok to mix the organic + mineral stuff they have, when you feed the plant, do you recommend first mixing all minerals, watering, then on the next watering, do organics only and so on, or just straight up feeding it all at once?
Thanks
