Hey all, going to be making a soil mix. I have run LC's soilless mix before and it was nice, a little pricey to put together initially which is why I wanted to run this through other eyes.
Base-
4cf or 30 gallons~of Espoma Organic Potting Mix-https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00553BLPA/ref=ox_sc_act_image_2?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER
6 gallons EWC
10 gallons of Perlite/pumice (I know about the perlite, but I have been running Hempys and have a huge bag)
Then to that I will add

And
http://buildasoil.com/products/mineral-mix-kit
I will also be adding
3lbs Fish Bone Meal

And BioChar, the already charged(have a question about which size bag I should get here?) version.

How does this look? I will inoculate it with a tea per my recipe I use below and let it cook for 2 weeks~Will be using 5 gallon pots for keeper phenos and 1 gallons for 12/12 from seed. Going to be feeding two AACTs at week 2 and 4 in flower using 1 cup EWC, 1 cup cold thermal compost over 2 years old! And 1 tap molasses per 2 gallon of water. I will also use the leaf compost I have going from all my other grows as mulch, and probably topdress with some EWC when I water in the second tea...thanks!
P.S
I also had a question slightly off topic to the general direction of this thread...my tap is 7.0 350~ ppm and after sitting 24 hours it's 8.0~ 375~ ppm...is that okay to water with at any stage?
