I’m new to the whole TLO growing.
However it’s the road I’ve decided to travel and I want to stick with it. I’m gonna list everything I added to my soil mixture and if you notice anything I missed or can add in the future please let me know. I’ve spent too much to turn away now. I’m also going to Note I’m in Northern Ontario, Canada and I couldn’t find Bat Guano for the life of me so I settled on chicken manure.
- Pro-Mix HP w/Mycorrhizae
- worm castings
- Chicken manure
- steer manure
- 3 in 1 potting soil mix w/peat moss, humus & organic matter
- perlite
- Epsom salt
- Oyster shell
- Dolomite lime
- Bone meal
- Kelp meal
- Azomite
- K- Mag (pelletized) long release
- Rice
- Alfalfa meal
- Coco coir
This is all I can think of right now. As for feedings. I use Gaia Green dry amendments like all purpose 4-4-4 & power bloom 2-8-4 and I also brew tea using The 1st 24hrs
- Chicken manure
- Gaia green 4-4-4
- Molasses (pure fancy)
- Kelp meal
-
Day 2
I then add - worm castings
- Some healthy living compost
- (Depending what stage the plants are at) I add Gaia green 2-8-4 in different ratios.
Day 3
Is when I strain and use!
But I’m wondering about the phosphate category. Other than the dry amendments from Gaia green & bone meal will the plants be fine throughout the entire grow? How often should I use K-Mag (Cal-Mag) but I kinda got screwed with the lockdown and ordering over the phone (also paid that way b4 I actually got to see the product) but I’m sure it works; just a slower release. I’m also wondering how to continue reusing my soil. No point in wasting great soil! Just so you know what light it’s under: ViparSpectra R900 in a 54"x 33"x 82" room.
Here’s the current grow status
