Currently have a mix of my own vermicompost with Kellogg raised bed potting mix and worm castings mixed in between. I’m noticing red soil mites (not spider mites thankfully), spring tails, white mites, and I’ve added about 50 worms from the compost. I mulched it with garden debris and straw.
It’s been sitting about three to four weeks now and before I start my germination I wanted to make sure I didn’t mess up on the blend. It’s been watered twice with liquid kelp/worm tea/molasses and I’ve put down a top dressing of craft blend about two weeks ago.
I noticed my mix does not have very much perlite inside of it and was wondering if this would be a problem? I could still add perlite now and have roughly 2-3 weeks for whatever disturbances I may of caused to remedy themselves.
Was also curious if I could go the entire grow with craft blend and the occasional tea mix I mentioned earlier.
Any tips or advice highly appreciated
