Cannabis

I’ve been growing for years, started with hydroponics and feminized Photoperiod plants, long story very short.
Wanted to get more organic, in part because mixing all those fertilizers was getting tiresome. Checking this and that hoping to get a better handle on trying to be Mother Nature.
Switched over to soil and Autoflowers with the intent of going completely organic. We use Comfrey for fertilizing our vegetable gardens, so I went in that direction. Worked great, mixed chopped comfrey into the soil for a ‘time release’ fertilizer and watered with comfrey ‘tea’. Easy peasy, sit back and watch them grow.

But, of course, growers…always want to do better so I started experimenting with potassium to increase bud size.
Russian comfrey has a potassium level of a little over 7 (NPK 1.80-0.50-7.09) that was the starting point.
Then in this grow I added potassium citrate at different stages of development, preflower, flowering, mature flowering. Each addition was the equivalent of one banana’s worth of potassium (approx. 400mg) over the course of the grow, so approximately an additional 1200mg of potassium.

I blame winter and my nextdoor neighbor …winter cuz I get bored and need to grow something. Neighbor cuz we have cannabis grow contests.
