Hi everyone,
I thought Id share a really nice starter mix for anyone thinking about trying organics.You can do it one of two ways.mix all the hard materials(ie:Guano's,Kelp,Lime...ect..) for the full recipe found in the organics section here,and take a 5LB well mixed cut of the hard materials and add as follows.OR,buy a 5LB pre made packet from tlosoils and make the medium mix.
I find that roughly a 25-28 gallon mix is very good for auto's so far.sensetive..?ehhh,Id still use it just make the plug a touch bigger in your pot imo.Instead of using 5 gallons of soil,EWC and coco(or similar)I used 6 gallons of those and a few gallons of compost of quality and 5 gallons of perlite.mixed once well.sat for a week then mix fully again.corners and ALLL/mix it well at the week mark and check your moisture level and mix realllly well and back to the tote and in 35-40 days from THAT point,you'll be ready for some excellent growing.DO NOT push your blending/cooking times imo.30 days is flat bare bones minimum and you could be wasting your time.
45 days from start of cooking and mixed material(s).cal mag and some light feeder teas or what have ya if they need it or can go more is when you do top coating and ring layering.NEVER treat the surface of the entire pot.avoid the stalk always.
Hope this helps a few of you out.its theee easiest way your going to produce the meds you seek as easy as you need them.maintain your conditions to the best of your ability and you should have solid plants in a hot minute too.:smoke:
in recap: the 5LB packet and/or 5LB mixed cut of hard materials should be mixed as follows to start with imo.
6 gallon(i prefer a 5Gal bucket) of quality organic soil.dont need anything fancy,just decent.
6 Gallons of Earth worm castings.Freshness counts if ya can get it.
6 gallons of Coco Coir or Spagnum Peatmoss
and 5-6 Gallons of perlite.I use 5 gallons.6 is ok too.Horto grade,not enhanced with or any BS.
and I like to cut into the mix some Mushroom compost and a little cow compost(NOT dehydrated)..a cpl gallons of each and add hard materials and mix WELL!!! and voila.a mix a week L8r n there it is.your own Rev's 2.1 Master soil builder recipe from start to user ready.Above 65-70F and come in come in..the show is about to begin LOL!:smoke:
oh yeah,I enhanced one of my mixes with eggshells.my next one will be egg shells and crab shells n a few small nuggets of Lime for good measure.
