Soil without needing to fertilize???

Hey all. I really would love to mix a batch of purely organic soil and just add water. I'm over the constant ec/ph testing of my solution and the patients I grow for as well as myself, would love a "true" organic medicine.
I've read a lot of recipes and they All seem radically different and some need to cook for months. I've even heard that some people just use things like Ocean Forest without adding any ferts. I use ocean forest now and can't believe it would be possible to yield well like that.
Can anybody suggest a "general" recipe that would be good to go? I grow indoors in 3-5 gallon pots under 4x600 hps.
Also, my tap water is around 8.0 ph. I've heard that with a properly living soil, the water ph going in is pretty irrelevant because the soil buffers it? Please help guys. I want to really go organic and be done with the nonsense. I'm not looking for a lazy way out. I want a better medicine.
Thanks in advance!

Unlike many posts that would very much contradict the content of this post, you are correct, you can go from germ to harvest without the need to fert or add nutes, many auto flowers, the strains that expire after a mere 60 days fit into this well!
I'm similar to you, but buy my organics from the hippie commune down at the river, who have been mixing organics for over 50 years, I'm in no condition to compete with them ..
Much of many hot soils such as FFOF and Mg, say they are organics, but that term is widely used in gardening, so too here, organics to me is growing in shit, I do it, and so too do many others, my favorites are goat shit, worm castings and blood and bone manure, in a cocktail of really weird shit from again down by that river ...lol

I don't recommend you take on the task of building your own, as its a real science, but a local contact who knows his shit, is someone not to be by passed
good luck and keep hunting

Thanks for the reply, V. I assume there has to be some sort of organic shit/soil supply in the willamette valley. We got a lot of old farmers and hippies here for sure :) Let the search begin!

I've seen a lot if vids from some reputable and not so reputable sources. They vary so widely and get pretty exotic. Is there a particular batch that you use? Suitable for indoor?

I mix my own soil, but I also make my own organic teas. I just look at the plants and make my next batch of tea according to what the plants look like what they need and then I'm always organic too.

Teas are the shit!
