Reusing organic soil

[Rightwing]

After harvest what should I do to keep my living organic soil active during the off season
I am using 3 gal fabric pots with a 1/3 compost perlite and ffof
I have applied compost tea and recharge as well as ewc and earthworms in each pot
Is just watering enough or should I continue with compost tea and recharge
Thank you

Welcome to afn
Only three gallon size pots? Wow those are small pots. Well I might think as I'm an organic living soil guy myself I would want to have something bigger to work with like 25 gallons would be probably my minimum size pot for me to work with. that way there you can have a a top crop you can put worms inside it, you know and feed them and it would make a really nice ecosystem for a small grow that you can probably grow two smaller plants in at the same time... for longevity as long as it's not going to be frozen or freeze.? I would probably water it every so often but check it to make sure it's not over watered but make sure you got enough water in it. So that everything can live. I hope that helps anyways just food for thought. You'll have to work out a system for yourself you know trial and error. But that's how I keep my soil alive more or less is how I just told you. Take care and happy growing

How long is your off season .

6 months
I have a 32x32 small tent in my basement
I have worms in all my fabric pots
I hope the worms will eat the roots of the old plants
I have a compost/worm bed outdoors
I didn’t know if I would be better off to leave the soil in the individual pots or dump all the pots into a large bin
Any feedback is appreciated
