EarthTainer and other SWC questions?
Ok, i understand the fully sealed EarthTainer and SWC principles, one being you install a fertilizer strip or ring when first planting the seedling in the container.
From what i understand, this is meant to last the growing and blooming duration of the plant. But i just wondered if anyone has supplemented with a dose of liquid fertilizer in the watering process, i am more talking about Seasol or some other Seaweed solution? Once plants are mature i mean? Do you think there is a chance that the dry slow release fertilizer will be completely leached? Thus adding a cycle of Seaweed solution each week or 2 would be beneficial? Also wondered if people try and flush/churn the water in their SWC to keep it fresh? |
