Homemade Organic Fertilizier

[whistleguy]

Are there any suggestions for homemade fetilizier of a SpaceBucket ?

I've planted my seeds to a standart nutriented classic soil. It has been 1 week and my seeds have already 4 tiny leafs.

So i don't want chemical nutrients. And i had no budget to create super organic soil .

How can i make homemade manures that can help my plant to thrive with great smell and other features. You know with shell of fruits or different kind of materials.


Edit; for new information found:

I found Worm Fertilizer and Bat Guano at my local shop.

Worm Fertilizier(2kg) goes like this:

Organic ingredients %40-50
Total (N) %2.3
Total P₂O₅ %1.1
Water-soluable Potasium K₂O %1.1

Bat Guano(500gr) Solid Fertilizier goes like this:

pH :6,0
Ee:3,5
Organic ingredients :18,5%
Humidity : 5,3%
Total(humic,fulvic) :4,9
Total (N) : 1,1
Total P₂O₅ : 20,6
Water-soluable Potasium K₂O : <0,2%
Total CaO : 14,7


At those manures i kinda felt like they have low potassium levels. Light my way guys, please.
If they are fine i suppose i should perform first one at vegetative stage and the other one at flowering stage ha ?

Isn't there anything at all ?

I wouldn't recommend to craft your own nutrients cause everything needs a proper process. You could get a bucachi(I think that's the name) bucket. Or a worm bed. Both decompose organic matter into food for plants but it takes time and dedication. My advice is get organic humus or manure or guano and add to your soil (it's called top dressing) just a little bit at certain times. For example. Chicken manure has a lot of nitrogen ready to use so it's great for vegetation. Bat guano has a lot of potassium which is needed in flowering

That helped a lot actually,thank you.

I am open for more new information and more advices.

You are very welcome. Unfortunately I'm not an organic grower so I don't really know specifics but feel free to ask anything around here. People are very kind and helpful

I'm not sure if you can order from Amazon.com, but the Fox Farm Nutrient Trio for Soil is pretty great for cannabis. It's almost completely organic except it has a few mineral sources of nutrients in Tiger Bloom. If you want to go fully organic, the General Organics Go Box has a full organic nutrient lineup without costing a ton of money.

• If you can't order online, is it possible to buy composted soil where you live?
• What kind of nutrients and soils do you have available at your local garden store?

If you can get really nice soil, you could just start the plant in a small pot of soil, then transplant it to bigger pots of soil as it gets bigger. That way the plant always have soil with fresh nutrients, and you don't have to worry about mixing up organic nutrients.

A really great homemade organic nutrient is worm castings "tea". Many garden stores sell worm castings (worm poop). You can use it as a top dressing, or make "tea" with it to feed your plants. It's a gentle source of nutrients that cannabis plants really like. It's hard to burn your plants with worm castings, however it's not very "strong".

You'll get the best results if you give cannabis-friendly nutrients with the following nutrient ratios....


Where is this information? Most nutrient bottles display 3 numbers, often called N-P-K, which stands for Nitrogen, Phosphorus and Potassium

ageoldorganics just came out with a dry blend of nutes to amend soil with 98% of all their products are organgic .cost is very good under 50 bucks a gallon or the dry is under 40 for a 5lb bag. when Im making my gorilla grow soil I start with compost two shovel fulls, and then promix 3 shovel fulls, peat moss, 1 cup plant tone, perlite/vermiculite 3 shovels, lime 2 cups and this year adding the 3 dry nutes from age old. I have been using them for 3 years and I've never had a product go bad, Planetnatural.com sells the whole line. In my compost bin I add my chickem poop but it needs to sit for a year . My compost take anywhere from a month to 6 months if I don't keep up with it. ive made a big pile of leaves, branches, dirt added poop, lime covered with a tarp and left it for a year and its dirt. point is growing organic takes time good luck

i think you cannot miss with the bat guano, also is a smaller bag so you can test without spending too much. but i have no experience whatsoever with neither

Does your shop carry super soil? An easy way to grow is to buy some super soil and fill 1/3 of the pot with it and 2/3 of a good organic soil (organic roots or Fox Farm)> pots needs to be at least 5 gal. This method will get you in to flowering without adding anything else but water. Can top feed with super soil or water with teas made from the super soil.

If the goal is to make your own stuff, you will need to start a compost pile or tumbler so you can make the super soil, soil and teas from that. This method will take a few months so you will need to plan ahead of time.

Hi whistleguy, new grower here so take advice with caution:
Compost tea! (for a lot of different needs)
Comfrey "tea" for flowering.
Nettle "tea" for veg.
Molasses, "blackstrap" & "unsulfured".
The teas are homemade, doesnt cost a dime. Its efficiency is yet to be proved to me, but since I do not want to shell out more than I already did, I will start with that. Basically go out and get 1kg of nettle for instance, shove that in a plastic (not metal!) drum that contains 10L water (rain or well water) cover it, let it rot. Stir it everyday til no bubble come anymore. Or you could wait one or two weeks, but the smell will be worst (smells of compost, decomposed, not the good kind).
If you do try any, make sure to let us know how it turned out.
Edit, I forgot to add that this tea is to be diluted in your water! (10% tea for 90% water approx) 10L of tea makes almost too much. Can store it in a dry, lightless, cool place.

How do you use it for arthritis? Apply in a balm like around the joints? Surely you do not drink it, otherwise we are not talking about the same kind of "tea" xD The one i talk about is really smelly, disgusting. It can be a good compost activator also. My brother used it in his "bio" garden, which is why I decided to try these kinds of solutions, but I will believe in its efficiency only after trying it myself!

[oldjarhead100]

yes I make a tea from fresh Nettle leaves (stinging nettle ) dont know if there is more than one kind of nettle

[Minoo96]

I know of two types, the stinging one, I use those for the fertilizer. Then there's the "white balls" one, doesn't sting, or much less at least. I was lead to believe the latter is the "female", but maybe that's just a phrasing.
