Anyone have any secrets on getting the young Plants growing as fast as possible to get them to 10"+ before pollination time? Any nitrogen rich recipes that work but run down when the flowers start to appear ? I've heard that to much nitrogen richness at the wrong time(pollination) can cause the new pollinated flowers to abort?
Any response would be appreciated
Thanks

The Agro-K program seeks to do just that - promote early vine growth with a Nitrogen taper to avoid fruit aborts.

Or if you're cheap like me & can be trusted - 15.5-0-0 19% Ca Calcium Nitrate. LOL

When ever i had plants that didnt seem to be growing fast enough i would add blood meal , And they seemed to respond ! Fish never seemed to do as much although i do use it to ! I dont care for anything stronger !!
