Soil advice please.
I've germinated my Flash Seed SuperAutos and my LowRyder II seeds. (Both AutoFlower)
I've reviewed several 'Soil Guide's to Growing'
Now I'm ready to plant these babies in their permanent homes. (Airpots and Superpots!).
Unfortunately, here in Asia you have to special order any special organic soil (it's ALL chemicals over here), and I don't even know how to BEGIN to do that! (I can barely tell what is in the REGULAR mixes). Sooo, no bloodmeal or worm casings for me.(ETC)
My question:
I'm gathering Autos have different/special soil needs, yea? What would be the BEST mix/how would you use of the ANY of the following?
Here's what I have access to:
-'Delicious' (I know the word for this) Organic soil mix
-Composted cow manure (not fetilizer)
-Perlite
-Vermiculite
-Indonesian Bat Guano (Low nitrogen/high phosphorous type---special ordered)
-Pigeon poop (collected from under bridge)
-Ground up egg shells (homemade)
-Coffee grounds (homemade)
I also collect my rainwater in barrels with an aquaruim bubbler AND I have access to Flora Nova's Veg and Bloom, Hygrozyme, and Superthrive(I was just trying to go more organic).
I heard they have Epsom Salt here at the pharmacy, not sure that would help though.(?)
Taking ALL those materials into account, which would you guys use and how?
Thanks for the help. I've been getting VERY subpar results so far, so any help will be appreciated. (Best answer would include amounts (in %'s or ratios, not gallons/liters) and methods.)
Trying to get this shit CORRECT.
PS: By the way, several serious (results wise) growers just put their Auto's straight into cow manure(composted). (The safest of the Manure's, I'm told).
I'm actually kinda confused on the manures and soils, if anyone would mind clearing that up. (For example, do we even need soil? Looks like manure has everything the plant needs....)
Sorry, kinda a double post. You get my drift, hopefully.
Thank you ladies and gentlemen. (Or just plain men, lol).
