My father, Epenguin Snr, has for many years been a champion plant grower with cups and medals a plenty. So when I asked for his help with my first foray into horticulture (ahem) he was quite cool about it. I was out of hospital within a month.
Once I got started with a paper towel, dish and seeds, he couldn't keep away. "I will mix you up a good compost...etc" + " I have some pots here that you could use .." Bless him, he is 84!
Any way, back to the Ferts. What you got pop ? "I always use CHEMPAK" he said. So, to keep costs down I use what he always used as there was plenty in the greenhouse. Its dirt cheap compared to many of the nutes I have seen in these forums. So, for your info, our plant food, which we get the worker Meerkats to feed to the little girlies, is ;

*For veg : Chempak No 4 High Potash 15 15 30 +TE oops BLOOM

*For Bloom: Chempak No 2 High Nitrogen 25 15 15 +TE oops VEG

It is a blue crystal powder that the meekats dilute and is very cost effective. Seems to be working a treat so far.

I think you have that backwards the No 2 should be the Veg and # 4 for bloom. No experience with them that's just how the #'s look. Please let us know how they go.
 
Don't know my flipper from my beak

Thanks pal and well spotted. You are quite right, I got it arse about face and have edited my post. Good job u are on the ball.
I will have to go and punish the Meerkat responsible for proofreading. Sixty lashes should suffice.
