Outdoor Grow Flowering using Super bloom 12-55-6

2nd year growing.. 1st time using this.. just started about 4 weeks ago plants can be seen in my journal (needs to be updated those pics about 2-3 weeks old)

1st impression so far.. (it's cheap! yeah about 13$ for the 1lb jar at home depot... up to 80$ online WTF?)
my Strawberry queen+ Carmelisous are taking to it really well... the Bubbas are just now flowering have only given them 2 treatments)
Orange Crushes are also about 2 weeks into flowering
Have been giving 2tblspoons per 2.5 ltr water
Headband is not near flowering yet same as one of the skinnier bubbas
Agent Orange is just starting to show flower signs too

Anyone else having good/bad results with this?

too much N. I am considering using this miracle grow bloom booster that i bought at Rite Aid for $3. it is on sale right now half price because the "gardening" season is over. the npk is 15-30-15 many ppl on here use it with great results.

A buddy of mine only grew with soil and water no food at all besides his organic nutrients in soil mix. He did a side by side test on two og kush plants.He would not show me just told me till harvest. When time came to chop he came and got me and with my two eyes they were nice but the one with Greenlight Super-bloom Had 1000 more crystals really sticky and different smell. Smoke seem noticeable different; I used it on two grows and works but i have went with fox farm now because of the 3 pack more simple.
oh yeah and plants still use N during flower...

I buy "Kellogg Natural & Organic All Purpose Fertilizer for All Plants and Flowers" sold at Home Depot. It's the pink bag, has an NPK 4-4-4 and it only cost $8 for a 4 lb bag. I like the all purpose blend myself since I can use that at all stages, but I've also used their Rose & Flower (NPK 4-6-2) and Tomato Vegetables & Herb (NPK 4-6-3) and had great results. They all go for the same price, I see them for sale at Lowes and Home Depot, and I like how they last a long time and they are OMRI listed (certified organic).

According to the package it's made up of "dried poultry waste, bone meal, feather meal, kelp meal, alfalfa meal and Potassium Sulfate. Also contains 2% humic acid, 4 million CFU's of beneficial soil microbes, and 444 viable mycorrhizal propagules per gram." It's designed to feed for two months.

I usually only need to apply it 2-3 times a year at most. I've never burned a plant with it either. I love this stuff and it's so cheap.

I would never use it.Way to much phosphorus for me and it throws the balance way out of whack IMO.If It seems to be working fine for ya and you like it,I guess that's what counts,but keep an eye on em and I hope you have a great harvest !!

I agree... the trick is knowing a plant well enough via ressearch and watching so that your able to give the plant what it needs when it needs it... i go hard on the phos 3-4-5 wks into flower, and 3wks b4 harvest ti give a wk+ flush...

I love hearing about great results w cheap stuff... i have sheep, chickens, and rabbitts... horse poop from the last person to lived here too. I usr house and garden, that good sht. Cost a lil but, i like to pamper and spoil my plants... w the genetics i have? I would only feed them the best out there...

i just paid 9.95 for a two lb bottle. i used it ounce so far, on a pair of aurora, and one mad shack. they are halfway in. plants need n in flower. it helps em not fade to fast. i only used like 3/4 tsp per gal. if i dont like it, i will use it on my outdoor tomatoes, etc. looks like it would be great for outdoor girls......

I know of others that use the osmocote 17-17-17 outdoors.. With the nature of outdoor growing where most of it is guerilla I don't think anything is wrong with time release or home depot products
