So I only grown soil a handful of times and that was at the very begining of my growing career so to speak… Now after running hydro 5 ways to Sunday, including my current full organic Recirculating Hempy Waterfall Topfed systems (RHWT). But after picking through the forums, I want to try soil again as a little experiment to determine exactly how close, or far off, I am from a traditional organic soil grow. This is the soil recipe ive compiled, and I figure I would follow other people’s tea recipes for recharging the soil and whatnot…
Base Mix:
1/3 Peat Moss
1/3 EWC
1/3 Perilite
1 bag of Base soil (FFOF etc)
Amendements (Per 1 cu ft soil)
Kelp Meal (1/2 Cup)
Neem Meal (1/2 Cup)
Crab Meal (1/2 Cup)
Oyster Shell (1/2 Cup)
Fish Bone Meal (1/2 Cup)
Langbeinite (1/2 Cup)
Gypsum (1/2 Cup)
Azomite (4 Cup)
BioChar (6 Cup)
Malted Barley Powder (1 Cup)
Then I am going to mix all of it together and let it “Cook” for ~ 3months until I am planning on using it. To be honest, this is just a concoction of things ive read which would be beneficial, along with using @ReikoX recipe as a base and adding things to it. What I am wanting is something that I can just add water to, along with an occasional tea in flower and still yield dense, odorful, flavorful, and stoney weed which would be better than what I am producing now. Thanks for your help everyone, lets see if I can kick the bottle (well, mineral salts in my case!)
Thank you everyone!
