I suppose I will try it ONE DAY. Would have to do that break down on a 20gallon tote worth. divide it down to a manageable size.
Sure as shit aint doing it in the garage. Would have to be stuff safe to mix up in the basement. (no batshit)
I felt the same. After StOw and Gandalf and the rest of the circle babied me through my first soil runs there is no looking back. I almost burned my flow tables and pissed in the ashes.
Focus on structure and forget amendments at first, teas can take you through a mild soil, but nothing can save a collapsed soil structure refusing to let water in... One third each peat, aeration, compost, has not let me down yet. Going for the 4th run in the same soil and it keeps getting better.
Amendments are a lot to learn about, but if you ask about them one by one then it gets easy after a while.
And you don't need guano, you can raise plants poop free and vegan if you want.
