018 LUI-Day-8

here’s a nice view of a lil LUI seedling at day 8. so far so good!
tonight the LUI seedlings were fed a very mild solution containing fish fert and liquid kelp. the plants weren’t soaked. just a light watering
from above for each container. the fish fert is a 2-4-1 fert and here’s
the catalog description . . .

NEPTUNES HARVEST
Liquid Fish Plant Food is a natural organic fertilizer made from fresh North Atlantic fish. It is a highly nutritional plant food made by a unique cold process, unlike fish emulsion which is cooked. This cold process protects the vitamins, amino acids, enzymes, and growth hormones;
and since the nutrients are already chelated, they are readily available for your plant’s consumption. here’s the catalog description on the maxicrop . . .

MAXICROP LIQUEFIED SEAWEED
An extract from fresh growing Norwegian Ascophyllum Nodosum seaweed. It contains a huge complex of chelated minor elements, important bio-growth stimulants, and organic sugars. The plant growth stimulant properties of Maxicrop will enhance natural-growth processes, leading to greater rooting, while producing strong healthy growth with improved resistance to environmental stresses. we like this combination of fish ferts and kelp since it makes a complete feeding w/ the full range of major, minor and micro nutrients for healthy plant growth. for a normal feeding we’d use 1 TBSP of Fish fert and 1 tsp of Maxicrop per gallon. since these
are tender lil seedlings we cut everything in 1/2. so the actual ratio for this feeding was 1/2 TBSP per gallon of fish fert and 1/2 tsp per gallon of the seaweed extract. some may be wondering why we aren’t using a high nitrogen fish fert since these are vegging plants. we will be in future feedings but a fertilizer higher in phosphorous will help to stimulate a strong and healthy root system and that’s necessary before the plants put on a whole lot more foliage up top.
