i am growing outdoors and my plants are doing fine but i need some nutes. im broke and have no money i just got busted with a qp and paraphernalia so im gonna have a lot of fines and no money... so i was looking into using bananas for potassium and phosphate but i need to know what other household fruits and/or veggies i can use to through into a quick mix and the best way to feed it to them. (just found this useful http://www.buzzle.com/articles/how-to-use-banana-as-fertilizer.html ) i need to be able to use this stuff now not in a couple weeks. also i have pH up and down drops to keep it at 6.5

well im going to try and make my own concoction with banana,blackberry, and raisins ill keep posted wat happens kinda curious as i cant find anywhere of anybody doing this plus raisins r real sweet so it might make my bud naturally sweet. somehow im gonna hav to bring the ppm (parts per million) up so it'll absorbable for the plant.

OK, since nobody is gonna touch this, I'll give ya the bad news.

Sorry Dude, but bio-mass isn't immediately available to plants. It needs to be broken down by the microbial colony into a form the plants can assimilate. Sounds like you are trying to do this on a ZERO budget. Not happening man. Surely to god you can scrounge up enough for a bottle of either Peters or Miracle Gro "all purpose" ferts. If not then it really has to suck being you.
If you can't afford even the most basic of nutes, how can you afford soil, lights, or the dreaded electric bill?

i am breaking it down to the smallest powder form i can get, it has to be somewhere between like 800-1200 parts per million for a plant to absorb it i think.. and im an outdoor guy plus i bought all that stuff in march wen i had cash flow. i got this stuff http://www.amazon.com/Green-Light-97001-Super-Bloom/sim/B000UGO4YM/2 from local hydro store for 10 bucks told me it was just as good as http://www.amazon.com/Grotek-Blossom-Blaster-300-Gram/dp/B0026JIBHM/ref=sr_1_6?s=lawn-garden&ie=UTF8&qid=1346319147&sr=1-6&keywords=blossom+blaster wtf!? im sure these will help them with micro nutes somewhat even just a little
