Kelp/Plant food as additive?
    #21756990 - 06/03/15 11:08 AM (8 years, 7 months ago)

Hello,

First post/longtime reader!




So I picked up a bag of this lobster/kelp plant food at a nearby corporate health food store. I've read a bit of CH HELL'S additive post but since I'm new to the game it's a bit confusing.

Naturally as a new jack I'm inclined to "KEEP IT SIMPLE, STUPID" but I'm allured to the ins and outs of substrate additives. Thinkin' about experimenting with this stuff in a coco/verm/straw sub, spawning OG wheat berries and using several dub tubs to isolate/experiment. 

Before leapin' into the void and getting TOO experimental with it, would any of you salts recommend NOT using this stuff? Or if I should, what % should I use; is it better dry or perhaps brewing it a la Worm casting tea?

Thank you for the input in advance.

Forgot to add this image of the ingredients:



NPK ratio is 5-2-4, btw.

Mushrooms are not plants.

Yes, thank you for the enlightenment. I also understand several plant additives can be useful in the myco game.

Anyone else that can be more helpful?

Kelp meal adds food and is beneficial when used moderately at 1/2 tsp per gallon of pasteurization water

Use with caution because kelp will also increase chances of mold

Do you think that'll be ok with the magnesium from the Epsom salt?

Additives....
:rolleyes:

Go with your gut and KISS!

If you want to increase your game isolation of good genetics is the first thing you should be doing IMO instead of trying to hack possible bad genetics

Additives just dilute grain and bulk use more grain or bulk if you have room
