Coffee and Nitrogen deficiency?

Pauly420 · May 10, 2015

So I have concluded that my plant has a small nitrogen problem. I was wondering how well adding coffee to your soil works, as i have read that it is an "organic alternative" to chemical additives. I'm not so much worried using chems, I am just strapped for cash and looking for the best alternative to purchasing nutes. Any input is appreciated!

Also, I am using the fox farm trio, in 3 gal pots under 400w hps, about 10 days into flower. I know that during flower your plant will show some signs of nitro deff, but how much is "okay"?

Piss in a bucket (NO SHIT) lol, didn't intend on that pun.......cut it 3 to 1 with water and let it sit for 3 days.......Now water with it......Fastest cheapest way to a quick acting N......Now you have to deal with the yuck factor ..... lol

10 days in you say? Hmm, I'll bet it's too much P too early and you're getting yellow out......lower the use of your higher P bloom food.

okay, the yellowing isnt horrible. Just a few older fan leaves on both of my plants. I've also been trimming off all stuff on the bottom branches except for the last like 10inches so the stuff on the inside doesn't soak up energy.

Just be careful after drinking the coffee that you don't shit in the bucket with the piss... We all know how coffee reacts in a stomach lol

So what you're saying is, coffee, piss, shit, sit, water? Simple enough, will update!

Sorry, for being a little flippant, bro. No just as the Doc said earlier, piss is the cheapest form of instant N.
Other's may say say no, but it's an old style guerrilla growers 'technique' also.
Good luck. :peace:

I did a Google search a long time ago on the use of coffee grounds, as I grow organic. It's actually really good stuff to add to your soil, contains heaps of good nutes.
I add it to my compost for my next grow.
Always think of your next grow and how it can be a bit better than your current one.
btw. What strain is that you are growing?
:peace:

I've got
1 x Vanilla Kush (Barneys)
1 x NL X Lavender (Speed)
1 x The Doctor (GH)
1 x Pineapple Chunk (Barneys)
1 X Five O (Black Skull)
1 X Special Kush (RQS)

All week 3 of flower, feminised. The Barneys seeds were freebies.
Got hit, big time with Mag def in early veg, but I sorted it. Affected the Special Kush and the NL X Lavender mostly. The Special K picked up and is one STRONG muthaphukka, but the NL took it badly, dunno if I'm gonna get much out of it.
:peace:
