Working on a product to sell this coming grow season. A fully natural based (un-certified organic, but organic practices) fertilizer designed for tobacco growing.
A little insight on it:
I see a lot of different fertilizers and supplements that are made for certain plants, such as tomatos, marijuana, lettuce, the list goes on..., I also am aware of some fertilizers for tobacco but tend to be strong, salt based fertilizers that force you to put pounds or gallons of chemicals into your soil.
The awakening of the idea to make a supplement for us home growers of tobacco came when I read that higher salt content in tobacco reduces the favorable burn characteristics.
I've put about 40 hours of research and another 10 hours in lab testing and I think I'm about 80% done on the final project.
Right now I have a high concentration liquid supplement and am working on a dry-pulp medium for a dry supplement.
A few aspects of the product thus far:
-completely plant based
-completely renewable
-no worries of chemical run off
-no GMOs, artificial preservatives, artificial coloring or hormones
-completely edible (though it won't taste the best)
-When wet product is diluted, PH is just slightly more acidic than water.
-if diluted enough can be foliar applied
I'll update all of you when I come out with a dry product. As it sits right now, I would feel safe using this on my own tobacco.
