One big soil container for all plants
So I was reading Soma's organic growing book, and he grows a bunch of plants in one big container. This seems like a really good idea, especially if you are growing something that will be harvested. He uses a regular organic soil with some other stuff, but I wonder how this would be if you used a mix of soiless mediums, you could keep reusing it for a long time and just keep adding fertilizer. And of course the primary benefit for indoor growers is that you could grow more in a smaller space. I was thinking of a mix of coco coir, perlite, worm castings, and a variety of soil amendments like volcanite, rock phosphate, trace mineral rock, pumice, some slow release organic fertilizer, some bat guano, and such. Does this sound like a good idea?
