Well over the past year or so I've been doing some research about organics and how they work chemically in soil and their properties. I wanted to make a soil mix that I would only have to add plain distilled water to. That would be strong enough to maintain healthy plant growth over a span of 3-4 months but gentile enough for young clones or seedlings to sprout without burning or damaging fragile root systems. All the while never having to check the pH of anything or having to add any nasty synthetic chemicals and maintain the taste and aroma of some of the worlds best bud. Well after tons of research and having the space and cash to try this out i wanted to share it with anyone who is will to give it a try as well. I Haven't gathered all the materials i need for this project as of yet but i will by the end of the week and can possibly be started by as soon as next weekend (if all goes well..WISH ME LUCK!) the recipe is as follows and should be enough for 4 x 5 gallon pots or 20 x 1 gallon smaller pots. i will be using 2 gallon pots in a small SoG set up:
2 x 1.5 Cubic feet bags of premium potting soil mix such as FFOF,FFLW,FFHF my suggestion is do a 50/50 mix of FFLW and FFOF. That is what i use except its my local hydro stores own blend that is supposed to be the equivalent of each one so i mix those together.
2 lbs Worm Castings
2 lbs Kelp meal
1 lbs Mexican bat guano
1 lbs Peruvian seabird guano
1 lbs Jamaican bat guano
1 lbs Indonesian bat guano
1 lbs high-potash greensand
1 lbs Soft rock phosphate
1/2 lbs Azomite-trace minerals
1/2 lbs Leonardite- Humic acids and Fulvic acids
Mix 4 parts mixture to 1 part perlite
HAPPY PLANTS!!
