![]() ![]() Cooling consists of a 6500btu window ac with the cool air being directed into the flowering area by a 8" inline fan. I utilize a box I built for my moms and clones thats 3' x 2' x 2' so Im a lil cramped there but I make it work. Couple of oscillating clip fans for air movement. So my setup is simple I have 8' x 3.5' of flowering space under 2 600 watt hps. Here is a link to the feeding schedule where you can also see the analysis. I think its a newer company but they are made in the US, the nutes are tailored to MJ and they are quite inexpensive at 44.00 for the three part in gallon form. I have heard good things about their nutes. I have been using GH Flora nutes and dont feel their getting the job done so I am switching to Blue Planet Nutrients' 3 part plus their bloom booster. I run a perpetual hempy SOG zero veg straight to flower they go. All elements in organic matter could have at one time been considered "inorganic".This is my first ever journal so bear with me and ask away if you dont see it. ALL plant nutrients are part of a nutrient cycling process regardless if the nutrients are liquid in a bottle or decomposing organic matter. Nutrient cycling is responsible for this. Plants just need it to be in 2 forms to be used NH 4 + and NO 3. In fact, all nitrogen that is part of all living organisms was once gas in the atmosphere and vice versa. In conclusion, nitrogen is nitrogen regardless if it was part of decomposed compost or a mineral salt. This salt is very pure and only consists of NH 4 + and NO 3 - that is immediately available for plant uptake. ![]() Ammonium nitrate is made using the "Haber Process" which uses energy to take nitrogen out of the air and turn it into a salt that can be used as fertilizer. Certain plants such as legumes can fix nitrogen directly from the air. All nitrogen that has ever been incorporated into living organisms was nitrogen gas in the atmosphere that was fixed into ammonia (NH 3) through a natural process called "nutrient cycling". In fact, the nitrogen that is in the compost was at one point nitrogen gas in the atmosphere. There is no difference at all in the NH 4 + and NO 3 - in inorganic salts and the NH 4 + and NO 3 - that once was part of the compost. The compost provides the plant with both ammonium (NH 4 +) and nitrate (NO 3 -) but these ions are incorporated into organic matter which must be broken down by microorganisms to release them before they can be used by plants. using ammonium nitrate (mineral salt).Īmmonium nitrate is immediately for use by plants because it is already in a form that plants can use: ammonium (NH 4 +) and nitrate (NO 3 -). mineral based fertilizers are the nutrients in organic fertilizers once part of living tissue.Īn example that I like to use often when educating folks on this topic is using compost (organic) as a source of nitrogen fertilizer vs. The only difference in the nutrients in organic fertilizers vs. Mineral based fertilizers on the other hand, are immediately available for plants to use for growth. The nutrients in organic fertilizers must be broken down by microorganisms in order for them to be usable by plants. Organic fertilizers are derived from organic sources, more specifically, it must contain carbon. Growing "organically" involves fertilizing plants with only organic fertilizers. ![]()
