this is mostly curiosity, but i was looking over some posts from another site, and someone used miracle grow potting soil for a plant in their tank. i never heard of this and it made me wonder if it is possible to use regular garden ferts for a planted tank. i am not aware of anyone using anything such as shultzes or miracle grow, etc, in an aquatic setting, but i figured i would ask.
btw, i do not have any desire to try it out, but i compared labels of shultzes bloom plant food and seachems flourish and found some similarities;
shultzes ---------------------- seachems
nitrogen 10% ------------------------.07%
ammonical (N) 10% -------------------water soluable (N) .07%
phosphate 54% -----------------------.01%
iron .10% -----------------------.32%
maganese .05% ----------------------.11%
zinc .05% ------------------------.0007%
and of course, a lot more, such as seachems adds chlorine 1.15%. i know the numbers vary greatly, they are for different purposes.
