Last year I focused on keeping all the elements in the soil balanced according to the Langley estimator. This seemed to work well and stopped the guessing game of the "Moron" grower.....put more on ! (2212 lbs) This year I've also done the soil analysis and balanced stuff with the Langley....same as last year. This year I'm becoming a "Moron" grower again but with a difference. I'm applying beneficials and biologicals to excess. Here's a list of things I'm applying every day in 40 gals water and pumped through the drip system. BTW I also used this concoction twice a week during the growing season. The pumpkin is over 1600 about the same as last year's 2212. The plant is bigger and in better shape but that could be the different genetics. The real test will the weighoff...lol.
1) 2 Tbsp Bud Candy
2) 2 Tbsp B52 viatmin complex
3) 1/2 Cup Hygrozyme ....an enzyme OM digester
4) 1/2 Cup Hyshield...a chitin product derrived from crab shells
5) 1/2 Cup Hygroben...a mixture of 5 species of Bacillus
6) 1/2 Cup Affinity ...a mixture of kelp, humic and fulvic acids
7) 1/2 Cup Eco Tea Catalyst...a mixture of simple and complex sugars(smells like molasses)
8) 1/2 Cup liquid kelp
9) 1/2 Cup KTS 0-0-25...not the common 0 0 25. This is Potassium Thiosulphate. It's slightly acidic and mixes well with the other ingredients.
10) 2 Tbsp of Hyclean...an organic, plant friendly deterrgent to clean the drippers.
