Craig, Sorry about the post. Agro K seems to be the way to go. Can you work just a few of the products into a feeding
schedule and still see substantial results? Looking at
cost since my water bill was over the moon this year.

Cuke Beetle,

If you can, share a gallon program with other growers. Doctor Liggett, Ken Speakman, and I share the gallon program. Ken has as many as five plants, Dr. Liggett has four, and I have seven. I'd say a gallon program will go as far as 12 plants. What say you Craig?

NO problem on the post thats what im here for --yep you can use what ever products you think you need--there are growers that use some for start--or bloom or calcium needs --and plant and pumpkins health --the feed sked is a start to finsh what the plant needs at its particular time of growth--it also fills in the gaps of what the plant needs and the biggest thing is daily feeding never lets the plant go hungry----craig

Giant
Great idea on splitting the cost with another grower.
Problem is that there are only 3 in my area that grow
giants and they all live in the same house. Mine.

Of the three of us, I grow the largest plants-about 700 sq. ft. each. Doc and kenny are more limted-about 400-500 sq. ft.
