Fertilizing Hepatica
Guff:
Found this organic 0-4-3, Directions are 1 Tablespoon per gallon.
1 Tablespoon x2000 Tablespoons water is 7.8125 gallons.
I'm thinking 1/4 Tablespoon x 1 1/2 gallon of water or two gallons of water and call it a day............
Jeffnz:
For balanced green growth you will need to include N in the mix.
Guff:
The site says two different fertilizer routines throughout the growing season to get them growing as fast as possible.
No nitrogen for Fall fertilizing. Goal is to feed the roots as the seeds germinate in October through Spring.
Guff:
Jeff you know I like to grow things as fast as possible. Remember my 1 year to flower Hellebore and 6 months to flower cyclamen threads? I was going to try Hepatica under lights, but I have other projects going. Maybe sometime when I have extra Hepatica seeds I will try indoors and see what happens.
Guff:
Fertilizer arrived. Ful-power is suppose to help seeds germinate and also help with nutrients uptake.
Instructions for Ful-Power vary depending on what your using it for. 1-2 Tablespoons per gallon of water
Roots HPK is 1 Tablespoon per gallon of water.
Fertilized my flowering sized plants, today. I went with 1 Tablespoon of each into two gallons of water. Also watered in the seedlings that had germinated this past Spring.
I may up the Roots HPK to 1 Tablespoons per gallon after a couple weeks. Plan on fertilizing them once a week, until the end of October.
End of September, I will start watering in the seed bed with x2000 dilute mix of the Roots HPK and Ful-Power.
