Two Questions about Super Soil

What up all, I'm running Subs supersoil indoors right now and i'm gearing up to run it in 200 gallon smart pots outdoors this year. I have two questions, and I apologize if they've been covered in the sixty some odd pages about the mix.

1)If kept dry could I combine the Blood meal, Fish Bone Meal and Guano and other powders together for storage. I mix with a concrete mixer and it'd be easier to figure out how much goes with each pot and faster to mix. I was just asking because i didn't know if the powders would react with each other. Anybody know?

2)My second question is where is the Pottasium in the supersoil mix? The soil obviously works wonders but I was under the impression K was pretty important. Maybe its already in the Roots or Castings or something idk. Insight?

Roots is a coco based soil. Part of what makes coco unique is the fact that coco itself gives off K naturally. If you ever grow in straight coco with hydro nutrients, you'll find that the plants do way better if you give them less K in the mix. Too much K will lock out N and especially Ca.

Also, if I memory serves, the Roots bag lists kelp meal on the bag as one of the ingredients. Sub's recipe works great as is. I woudn't fuck with it.

Not sure about the dry amendments, bud. Sorry I can't help. Good luck and stay safe.
