recycle soil question?

ah ok

its not oil

its to sop up spilled oil

so it holds moisture?

looking at the ingredient listed on the FFOF bag

they list guano

so im going to take a wild guess and make some assumption that maybe there soil its lighter more aerated because theyre using high N guano to boost the N and not as much compost

that would make sense given the N in the FFOF runs hot for a few weeks and then runs out

Is the guano in ffof high in N?
They use a fossilized bat guano, isn't that a high P guano?

not sure , could be

mine was only a guess

Fossilized Guano is high P and virtually no N.

looked at the bag

it does say fossilized

so if the guano is P then my next guess is the emulsion must be a good aprt of the N source

which would make sense given the order in which there listed on the label

so here what I ended up recycling it with

original soil 1/3 peat,compost, perlite

per 18 gallons recycled/amemded with
0 compost
1 gallon peat
1 gallon perlite
1 gallon pine bark (has a little compost in it, peters planting mix)
3 gallons biochar
3/4 cup oyster shell
2 cups gypsum
10 oz feather meal
5oz bonemeal
2 cups green sand
2 cups mix

mix
2 part kelp
2 part alfalfa
1part crab
1 part neem
1/2 part fish

next time I brew some tea im going to dampen the soil and add some high N fish emulsion to offset the loss of N in the not adding additional compost

if I end up light on N I got mex guano and fish if need be

but im hoping the feather meal will make up the difference and get me later into bloom before they ask for more N
