Nature’s living soil

Been doing some research on Natures Living Soil. Plan on doin a live soil mixture for an autoflower. Be mixing with FFHF with additional perlite. Be growing blueberry cheesecake auto supposed to go 10/11 weeks. Just wondering what it means by feeding it compost tea? Or if I will be ok just feeding with additional cal mag and some black strap molasses?

Ffhf will only have enough nutrition for about a month. You'll either have to top dress or start adding bottled nutes. If you're going to do bottled nutes, you don't really need to worry about a compost tea. They're more for boosting microbial life in the soil.

I've not used that brand but if it's any good, transplant into it at flower, and it should take you thru most of flower if you use a big enough pot. Otherwise you'll have to top dress a few weeks in, or start using bottled nutes. Since you're using cal mag, I'd just go the bottled nutes route.

I'd love to help, but me and Auto's don't get along, lol.

I’d like to do photos but with the job schedule autos are just easier for me.

Lots of people grow Auto's and I get the reasons, but I also see the dangers.

I also see major issues with this hemp shit.

Pollen can be transferred miles through just the air, and it's really dry here so it makes it even easier for it to stay viable.

But Auto's and Photo's both need the same nutrients anyways. Sounds like you wanna do organics, so I'd recommend getting some EWC and a top dress mix to start.

yes, im top dressing all my autos this year with soil conditoner and ewc and compost. im leaving out the dry amendments on these first 7 to see how it go's

I absolutely love nature's living soil.

I sprout into black gold 0.0.0 potting soil for 3 weeks. Transplant into 3gal fabrics doing the living soil method (NLS & FFoF) with 20% added perlite. Veg for 3 weeks then flip into flower.

Do not skimp on cal mag & do not forget too topdress before week 3 of flower or issues will arise week 6 of flower & its difficult too recover.

I do also ph my water cause outta the tap im 8.3 which pushes living soil buffer abilities.

Two - 3gals under a bloom plus 1500 in my 2x2x4.
