Just going with Jobes spikes to see if I have a good method of set it and forget it nutrients.

Looking for a little feedback, do my plants seem like they are good on nutrients? They look good to me and they are getting a super dark green from the spikes I've already added. I know it's halfway through its life and was wondering if anyone else with Jobes spikes has experience on the need to add more after a month. @pop22 any suggestions or recommendations? I have 8 in there now and saw one didn't fully dissolve yet so I'd assume it's still good. Plants seem to love it as it is.
Jobe's organic spikes are a good supplement, though I don't see many people use them. Or, you can top dress the soil with a dry organic nutrient mix, Jobe's mix is a good one, pretty much any off them will work, I've used the Tomato and Vegetable blend with good sucess. Sprinkle a couple teaspoons on the top of the soil, then cover with a little soil. Or, use a fork and poke holes in the soil, do not rake the surface!
here's organics at there best, same mix I use for Canna:
those leaves are 2foot+!
I actually was thinking of taking a few of the spikes (since im low on cash) crushing them up and putting them under the first layer of soil.
that's just 8 jobes organic all purpose 4-4-4 spikesNow there is a healthy plant! Nice!
and promix, nothing else.I gotta try that on my veggies next time i try to grow some, beautiful!
So you think for now I don't need to add anything? Or do you think I should add 2 more just to cover the rest of the season? I was thinking since they were put in the soil between 14-28 days in to the grow, they should last the whole thing since it'll be 70 days or less in total.
Give won't hurt to give her a couple spikes, these are slow release. may as well just push them into the soil. put them in near the rim of the pot you'll do less root damage.
I've never used just spikes so I'm not sure, but a couple extra won't hurt, most organic nute release slowly, except for a few, like blood meal, which gives some fast N.

I put in two near the edge of the pot. If this continues as good as I think it will, then I guess we can say we found an easy nute schedule
