re: HELLO OUT THERE

Some might think this is a bit much ,but this is how my fertilizer has went so far. From the time they broke the ground until they had 5-7 leaves I used 1 tablespoon 10-50-10, 1 oz seaweed, 1 oz fish in 2 gallons of water & spread in a 6 ft circle every day. At 5-7 leaves I switched to 1 1/2   tablespoons 20-20-20, 1 1/2 oz seaweed, 1 1/2 oz fish in 3 gallons & spread in 6 ft circle every day.My main vine is now 3 1/2 ft long & I can see females in the bunch of leaves at the end of the vine so I am switching to 2 tablespoons 20-20-20, 1 tablespoon 5-10-40, 2 oz each of fish & seaweed in 4-5 gallons & spreading in 10 ft circle. My plant is now 35 days old from the time I filed & soaked the seeds, the vine is 3 1/2 ft long, 2 secondary mains each 1/2 ft long ,18" wide leaves, & the stump is 5" in circ. As the plant grows I am planning on adding 1 more tablespoon of 20-20-20 , and 2-3 tablespoons of 5-10-40, and of course more water. once the main reaches 10 ft  I will start foliar feeding with a mixture of seaweed and 15-0-15 with calcium. I know people will think this is a bit much but it seems to work for me.............Paul..........Canal Winchester,Ohio
