need some organic K advice

[Ronin]

I'm growing mammoth sunflowers in my veggies garden this year.
I found out that the ash from the stems is a great source of potash.
With 13 foot plants, I should get a good amount of ash.
It'll get tilled into the garden for next years crops.
Just wanted to post another source of organic K.

I've been testing out fresh-seaweed tea. Blended a handful with 1ltr of rainwater, added some molasses and bubbled for 24 hours. My plants love it.

Honestly, the stuff is just fantastic..I have a huge 3 gallon bucket full of it. I wasn't sure how to store other than freeze it (which I don't have room for) so I just filled with rainwater, it's still as fresh as when I collected it! My plants LOVE seaweed. The best part is, yeah, it's completely FREE :xlaugh:

OG Kush = Ocean Grow Kush

If you have access to it, what do you have to lose?

for those of you with access to the ocean (I have ocean-deep envy) you can use 5% seawater in your waters for nutrition... that, some biology, and some rock dusts...(Basalt and Granite - 300 mesh or finer) and you actually need nothing else... especially if you have seaweed also!

Can you store it at all or can you only use right away?

 

[JM]

not sure on storage, but i would think you could.... given the salt content... not in a metal container.
