Can someone recommend a liquid fertilizer for cuttings being rooted in soil? And can I add Limestone directly to soil to balance the PH?

I only fertilize maybe every other watering on cuttings that already have roots and leaves, and when I do I've been alternating between all-purpose MIracle Grow and Neptune's Harvest Organic hydrolyzed fish and seaweed fertilizer (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...rch_detailpage), both at half-strength or less.Sarah

That's true, but also I figure they are small at this point, with not many roots and not too demanding nutrition-wise yet. Don't want to build up too much excess in the cups.
They seem good with the alternating fertilizers. When the next batch of cuttings is ready to exit the humidity bins I'd like to try a side-by-side comparison of organic-only vs. MG to see how effective they are relative to one another.

I use Floralicious throughout the season on up-potted and established plants. I am not sure if it is appropriate for a cutting in a cup.Rafael

What if it were to be diluted by 75%?

Hi Scott
My thought is that a rooting cutting should have diluted but balanced nutrients. Floralicious is full of minerals and micronutrients but I don't believe it has all the nutrients you may need, so for that reason I would not use it. Its not a dilution issue.
