Sup stoner420. Man you have come along way and may i say your young ladies are looking great. Not sure what kind of nutes you can get at your local stores. I would just ask what their best flowering nutes are if they know. I'm gonna ask Elephantman to check your grow out. He has alot of stuff going on as far as homemade mixtures go.

hey everyone i just have a question can i crush up egg shells and chop up potato skins and put it in the soil to add some nutrients for flower...... oh yeah i have been useing all purpose MG ferts for veg and i am wondering what would be good i know i need fox farms but the closest place i can get it is an hour and a half and i just don't have the time to go right now so is there any MG stuff that will work for now until i can get up there for fox farms stuff..... or maybe some stuff around the house i can chop it up and add to the soil for the stuff the girls need for juicy buds....

Well, eggshells are great K and Ca...but they must be composted first to be broken down into a form readily available to the plant, that won't happen in her lifetime. You really have to be careful about what you add too, 90% of organic matter will become acidic during breakdown and your ph will dive. In flower, most use an npk ratio of something like 4-8-8, I could think of a few things to try...but I know that this is not your first try at growing, and I would hate to see an experiment gone wrong. Definately try and get some FF nutes if possible...take the easy road for your first grow...ya know? If not...and you really wanna try something unconventional, let me know. I posted the most complete list of NPK ratios for organics that I have in my journal, check it out.

Thanks for the pm TBG.

Hey stoner to keep from disturbing the grow media you can boil some eggshells and let them steep for eight hours and drain the water and use it for potassium and calcium. Here is the link: http://www.associatedcontent.com/article/51810/homemade_fertilizer_for_outdoor_plants.html
