That's a good point though, I should put that on the table. If experience with guano makes one's knowledge of nature, I am but an ignoramus.
It is possible to cultivate a micro-herd of beneficial bacteria , which are already present/surrounding the guano by conditioning their environ. A wet, warm, aerobic environ (the opposite to dried guano in a bucket) allows these beneficial micro-organisms (which surround everything in nature) to become more active.
Are you sure benefical bacteria doesn't like P? I thought that was myco that doesn't enjoy P, not all beneficals in general.
Not true..Beneficial bacteria and fungi do not enjoy a high phosphorous enviroment. Which is what you are creating by throwing those Seabird pellets in there. You're better off blending it and throwing it in with the water.
We use Seabird guano powder,, not pellets. NPK = 9-9-2
1 tblspoon per 5-8 liters.
Phosphorus is subject to quantum chemical valence bond theory; where P bonds in a similar orbital manner to N via cation; when electronegative ions like phosphonium are tetravalent in nature with other compounds such as carbon.
That's why we add the wood ash
Hope this helps
Jay, would you say those powerful effects can't be had from your plant extracts? How much time do those extracts take compared to earning the cash to use guano in the legal job market?
Huh? How can cannabis get nitrate then , if the medium is 6.5?
I didn't say ammonium nitrate... I said nitrate. Much of your post I can't make sense of. Ammonium happens in acidic conditions, and once you have nitrifiers and pH 7 you get nitrate, the preferred N of most annuals. All plants can use both, but it's not healthy to give hydrangeas nitrate. Cannabis likes some nitrate for sure.
The first bacteria were anaerobic sulfur eaters. Eventually protein was broken down and co2 released. Then we got an atmosphere. The first N in the ground was fixed by lightning.
Hey I got a book you could read so we all have the same vocabulary if we want to.
