New Grower First Auto Grow Journey!

[Hugo]

Yep! Sounds smart to me too. But for how long will they last in soil?

i would like a mix that is similar to healthy soil, even if it is soiless. i dont want to have to buy/feed with fulvics, humics, microbes etc. if i can get away with it already being in the soil. Does this make sense to anyone besides me?

EDIT: when I say "they" am meaning the fulvics, humics, microbes etc.

Good growing skills man, well organised and good options

This looks like Mg def. Have you moved those tier cups to their final homes yet?

Hey Hugo. I think that the microbes can last a while if they are fed properly and nothing is done/added to kill them. They should keep doing their thing in the soil until they are no longer needed (no more food for them). I supplement with homemade teas and that always adds a good deal throughout the grow. I use products like Botanicare Aquashield, ZHO, Liquid Karma and have used Sweet Raw too. Plant Success Soluble and Great White. Kelp extract, worm castings and guano. I dont always use these products. I use what i have on hand at the time. Molasses or any product like it will feed the microbes.

Tbh im not exactly sure how long fulvic/humic acids last in the soil. i know that i do add some from some of the above products i.e. Plant Success, Liquid Karma but i think that they can last awhile in the proper amounts?? Not really sure. A better person to answer that would be JM or Mr Piggy.

How are you liking the General Organics line?

Astronomy 420, thanks for stopping by and subbing in! Thanks for the kind words too! It means a lot to me to have people along with me on this journey through AUTO-space.

i dont know whats up with my avatar??? i remember picking out a generic avatar not too long after i joined the site. Then it just became a blank white box when i view my profile and i cant find out how to change it?

Yeah, that's what I was thinking. It's better to broil a tea with those ferts than to mix it directly in the soil.

I'm not using GO nutes, I'm using several brands actually. BioBizz, TimacAgro, AN and Advanced Hydroponics of Holland.
I'm happy with all biobizz is really good for me, because I can over feed a bit and it won't do any harm. TimacAgro is more potent but you can't mess around with it.

Apologies Hugo. i was checking out your balcony grow a couple days ago and saw that you use FishMix and BioBloom. Dont know how but i got BioBizz and GO confused!
