So here's my current method to my madness of organic growing. I'm making my own soil based off super soil but a little different. I'm using bacterial and fungal teas, just basic ones. Bacterial is 2 kinds earthworm casting, grain feed and vermiplex and alfalfa. Fungal is cali gold and DTE compost, buffaloam, soybean meal and insect frass. Got the recipes from my local grow store, so feel free to give suggestions, if I'm making mistakes. I'm also top dressing with Mr bs green trees bloom 2-8-6 in flower. Other additives are molasses, calcium from nectar for the gods, epsom salt for magnisum, coconut water, aloe vera, sprouted corn seed tea. I'm trying mammoth p and shilajit both of them my friends at the grow store talked me into trying and so far so good.

Any input, ideas or suggestions welcome.

whats up man, that doesn't look bad at all, i'd maybe leave out the topdress, the Epsom (could use d-lime), and the molasses
add kelp meal and neem meal if possible, if you can't get neem meal try and add a lil steer manure in there for a sulfur shot
you could easily go a simpler route but I bet that would grow herb juuuust fine as described.
also make sure you get loads of aeration as well
any minerals?
basalt, granite, rock phosphate?
Any liming ingredients like crab or shrimp meal?
What is your base? peat or coco?
lime?

Looking good to me man. Quite a few ways to skin the cat as they say. I've been really pleased with using bokashi as both a top dressing, and to make bokashi compost. Super cheap usually and soil comes to life with it. I can't speak about nectar of the gods, as I haven't run them, for calcium I been doing korean natural farming prep WsCa also cheap and very effective.
