I use 1 large bag of Fox Farms Ocean Forest(1.5 cubic feet), 1/2 large bag of peat moss(1 cubic foot), around 12 lbs worm castings minimum(3 small bags), 1 cup wood ash(cannot have been rained on), 4 lbs bloom guano(seabird or bat is fine), 1/2 cup Epsom salt. Top this off with a compost tea containing mycelium for a big boost in growth, plus a regular molasses feeding.

Thanks for sharing. How do you provide the phosphor boost the plant needs in the early stages of bloom? Will the guano not be used up by then? Is there a way to time the availability of nutrients in your soil even when you add all fertilizers at once?

I’m a first time grower in south central florida. I plan to do some autoflowers outside next week. Can I use the fox farms ocean forest and happy frog mixed or do I have to add anything else. And also do I have to add nuts later on or will the soil be enough to last them the 2 months of grow time?

@@jonathonkerby8155I would layer your soil, happy frog on top half, ocean forest for the bottom half, so by the time your plant is in veg and out of seedling stage it can get the ocean forest which it will need the nutrients by then. That will get you through the veg stage and into flower, probably could get a whole grow out of it if you don’t really care about yield, potency, etc., but if you do that mixture of soil and hit it with a top dress of some type of flower/bud booster ie, down to earth rose and flower mix, or dr earth bud and bloom booster then you will have what you need to get through flower and you will have done it organically. Also no cannabis plant goes from seed to harvest in two months autoflower or not, expect three +

@user-asdfgh
@user-asdfgh Жыл бұрын
I believe he puts the super soil in the bottom third of the pot. The super soil seems to be higher in phosphorus (4-6-2) than nitrogen, although with the worm castings, could be (5-6-2) since the worm castings are (1-0-0). In the latter half of the video he splits the soil in half before adding the tomato fertilizer and azomite. Therefore, the top two thirds of the soil have an NPK of roughly (1-0-0) because of the worm castings. I think the theory is that the veg stage will use up the top two thirds of the pot before eventually rooting down to the super soil once it’s ready to flower. I’m sure the NPK I mentioned isn’t exact but you get the idea. Hope that helped anyone out there.

@@BackBurnerKitchen well, I think top dressing is more beneficial when you water the plants in a traditional manner (from the top.) I personally have found great success through bottom watering. I just put the bottom of my pot on/in a plastic coaster and water the coaster. Although I do like to water just the base of the stem from the top every now and then to try to direct the roots downwards during mid/late veg. Before anything, I add a bit of peat moss to the soil medium. It helps the soil suck up the water from the bottom. Bottom watering seems to help prevent fungus gnats and mostly prevent the problem you brought up.

You’re the first person to ever say that! I work in the movie industry and started off in the Greens department. While filming in the mountains on a show called Big Sky we needed a lot of trees. & a lot of native plants and trees to make the illusion that we’re in Montana. Whilst Ive been growing cannabis i noticed one day we needed pine needles so I went into the forest behind the set and started raking them up and noticed how rich the soil was, & as I was scraping the needles I was uncovering layers of the best soil rich in lots of Mycorrhizal Fungi in one of the layers and there was an abundance of it. I hit the mother-load as far as soils for growing. I could strip away various layers and uncovering an abundance of the richest soil’s used in various types of plants and trees and of course it was free. This reminds me I need to make a trip up to the mountains and get a truckload. Sorry for the lengthy story.

Waiting for it to age is futile as the nutrients have already been thoroughly extracted and processed (e.g., earthworm castings, the nutrient blends, etc. are already broken down into a direct-use substrate). Moreover, leaving outside in the sun is going to invite pests, pathogens, and other undesirables that all indoor growers vehemently avoid.

You forgot to mention adding in the kitchen sink. Also ocean inputs are high in salts substitute alfalfa meal for kelp, and egg shells for oyster shells, and bone/blood meal for the crab meal. Salts build up in the soil over time, and growing organically in soil doesn't require flushing the root zone because flushing kills your soil microbes just like high salt content.

​@@joegoddard9661yeah but will the phosphorus not be used up by the time the plant really requires it? All nutrients are added at the same time. I only see this recipe working out if you have a really slow releasing phosphorus fertilizer that you add at the beginning and that breaks down during veggie stage, so that the phosphorus becomes available during the first two weeks of flowing, which will be rewarded with an explosive boost in bud development.

He didn't add any beneficial microbes so it should be relatively stable. Honestly your natural inputs only need 4 weeks to breakdown and become available to the plants so his timeline is WAAAYYYYY longer than it needs to be. If you get a soil thermometer and monitor the internal temp, once the temp drops and stabilizes you can plant into it. The fear is that once you mix this and add water you activate the inputs and it cause heat as a reaction and you can cook your root zone, some mulch piles can reach upwards of 130 deg F, and I've witnessed hay barns spontaneously combust from the heat generated by the microbes and composting processes.

You're talking about the coco choir? Washing and PH buffering? This isn't hydroponics, the dolomite lime, azomite, and gypsum bring the PH into balance as he "cooks" the soil. Another reason organic soil is superior to hydroponics! Also....... shhhhhhhh want to hear a secret. When you grow in organic soil........ You don't have to PH your water or run off. If you have run off when using organic soil, youre wasting your inputs by flushing them out the bottom. You don't even have to use RO water. I use untreated rain water, its free and natural PH balanced from the source and comes with free natural organic nitrates!

people overcomplicate stuff... Of course, there's more than one way to skin a cat in terms of creating your own mix, but jeez I've seen people using a dozen or more ingredients all happy thinking they're doing some good. Im a big fan of going simple, cheap, easy, sustainable and also mimicking nature as far as possible. All I use is 1/3 washed coco (use peat if that's local to you), 1/3 vermiculite and 1/3 compost, and bob's your uncle. It's the tried and true Mel's mix. As the third part for compost I like to use half leaf compost (leaf mould) and half homemade worm castings. Anything organic that you'd feed to your plants, you feed to the worms instead so that they can mineralize it first so that when the plants get the worm castings everything is bioavailable right off the bat. You can also mix in 5 ro 10% biochar or carbonized rice hull if you need extra aeration in tall pots that get too compacted at the bottom, and maybe a little wood ash every now and then for extra Ca, P and K, but that's it, but I prefer to feed the ashes to the worms first. Very few things in nature work as good as worm castings and leaf mould. That's how a forest was designed to work by nature. that's what plants are expecting to exist in the ground cos that's what they've been exposed to for millions of years. rotting things on the ground being eaten by worms and other critters, and an eventual forest fire that adds ash and charcoal to the mix. that's how forests bootstrap themselves into life without any input from outside, and fertility only increases over time. trees act like natural pumps, pumping nutrients from the ground way down below and then into the leaves and fruits which then fall down to the ground and rot and decay increasing the fertiility of the topsoil. it's not rocket science... mimic nature and you'll be fine.

Can you let it compost for a few months OUTSIDE in the winter in upstate NY? Or should I use the basement...or am I screwed until next summer?

This video is a perfect example of someone who copies a process but doesn't really understand or comprehend that process. I noticed about 6 steps he preformed but never spoke about. Additionally azomite has been researched quite a bit and it's 50/50 if it's really as beneficial as we thought it was. Also where are the beneficial microbes, bacteria, and fungi? Why not use a no till method in the cloth pots?

The author assumes you're familiar with this method and is showing you an abbreviated a cheaper method what's not to like. But I got to laugh at the Springfield thing cuz it was the retired Springfield brass the Springfield Armory that got the Vietnam boys killed in Vietnam

@bovineexcrement8635 but if I'm already familiar with it, why do I need to watch an abbreviated version of it? And your comment about Springfield got really garbled up in your head when you tried to type it out. You're saying Springfield Armory used retired brass and gave ammunition made with it to the Vietnamese to use? Annnnnd that lead to........ and that relates to soil recipes how?

Yes and a roundabout way another way to simplify the comment would be the "revolving door of government" the retire out of the military and you get a job at Springfield Armory and then you deliberately sabotage the cult manufacturing process and it's convoluted and there's more to the story of course but the testimony in front of Congress is there for your reading... If you got the time and resources to mix up a bunch of stuff then I guess you don't need to watch the video personally there's a lot of woo woo and Stoner logic with potting soil. If you lived anywhere near me I'd give you a couple pounds of 4227 for you and your son
