My soil recipe...comments?
I had low nitrogen issues and pH flux during flowering in my last closet soil grow. During my next grow I want to buffer pH effectively and provide as much available nutrient as possible in the soil while minimizing the amount of "chemical" additives needed throughout the grow.
Here is the recipe for my next soil grow. I appreciate anyone's comments and observations.....
SecretSquirrel SoilMix
4 gal compost (roughly 75% plant / 25% manure)
4 gal perlite
3 gal sphagnum moss
1 gal worm castings
2 cup bat guano (11-4-1)
1-3/4 cup greensand (0-.15-.6)
1 cup bone meal (6-12-0)
3/4 cup kelp meal
1/2 cup dry molasses
1/4 cup wood ash
1/2 cup lime
4 oz mycorrhizae powder
***With 1 gal = 16 cups and 12 gallons of soil medium, 1 cup of amendment gives a 1:192 amendment to soil ratio, 1/2 cup gives a 1:384 ratio, etc.***
I mixed all ingredients thoroughly, moistened and mixed in a large trash can. I stir well every other day and will let it "work" for 2 or 3 weeks before
putting seedlings into it for veg phase.
Comments??? Too much / too little of some things
or sound like a plan? :thumbsup:
