My Attempt at Living Organic Soil!

[bklyndiaz]

bklyndiaz My soils are at least 120 days old before I use them . I build them in stages from the longest inputs to break down to the shortest . When a batch is done I let it sit and just feed the soil till I need it . My way of thinking it gives the soil time to balance it's self out and lets the microbes work at there best .
Plus I build my soil out side in big wooden boxes and the soil has direct contact with the native soil , which in turn helps introduce more microbes . I even have native worms call it home , which I believe is a good sign the soil is healthy .

Thank you! Thats good to Hear! I will introduce lactobacillus to my mix, is milk, rice and molasses, the only way to make this?

I make mine without molasses , as I store it in the fridge , it you want to store it at room temperature , then you add molasses after it is done . This site will help you . http://theunconventionalfarmer.com

hI, Guys, well it has begun, i started my First organic grow! as you can see ontop of my pots i have gs-1 grow stone, cause the soil was getting very dry on top, i would like to mulch my top soil with bark wood, but all i can find has been with DYE, also if i could find some without, i have read to stay away from PINE and CEDAR mulch? i can find these without dye, but should I ? any advise?
thanks,

Yes, I would stay away from pine and cedar.
Looks like you're off to a good start bro.

Thanks, @Jraven, so, what else is there? Regular wood bark? I found this, this morning, will it work?
