Irpini Posted June 27, 2018 Hi all, Just wondering if anyone has any tips on how to fertilise potted Red and Narrow-Leaf Catha Edulis plants (dosage, type of fertiliser etc). My plants are fairly established now and I wanna give them that xtra boost into the growing season and hopefully even cop a few flowers. All info is much appreciated. Thanks very much Good Growing, Irpini Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nothinghead Posted July 2, 2018 I dunno how active ph is anymore, unfortunately. At a wild guess I'd say a high nitrogen, low potassium fert. for leaf growth. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LokStok Posted July 2, 2018 (edited) Scale are a real pain with catha, however, they seem to prefer certain individuals and not others (identical clones, so there must be other variables). Darklight, your strain is much stronger and has more essential oil. It gives an inebriating stimulation, while the broadleaf strain gives a clear focussed stimulation. I am intrigued about individual plants that are not potent! If we cna work out what makes them weak, then we can probably increase the strength of our other plants by providing ideal conditions. Yeah, blog, too much water and good soil will cause strong growth at the expense of strength. However to get no effect at all is quite extraordinary. fertiliser?? we use only dynamic lifter (pelleted compost of chook manure and sawdust).
