Hey guys A here! I decided to start a new grow journal. A fresh start sounded good with a fresh soil. Fingers crossed, ill be vegging with a 1200w Mars II LED. Were gonna start these ladies in a few 1gal or smaller pots and transplant into 7gal rubber pots with drainage of course. I'm not sure of how I'm going to mix this, ratios wise, but I've got 2 bags of Sunshine natural and organic, happy frog bat guano, bone meal, blood meal, perilite, vermillicite(?), ewc, lime, and some mycorrhizal fungi. I think that's all of em, in total it was 110$!! So if anyone has an organic soil recipe feel free to drop it in here cuz i could use the help on ratios. Ill be running 6 dinafem cheese. Feel free the share your bud porn, ask questions and just shoot the shit! Also opinions are like assholes, everyone's got one. Remember that before you start any shit here!
Haha I'm hopin! Still trying to find a soil recipe. http://forum.grasscity.com/index.php?/topic/1304901-Amethyst's-7Gal-Organic-Dirt-Extravaganza!!

Man finding a thread to educate my ass in building a soil is brutal. http://forum.grasscity.com/index.php?/topic/1304901-Amethyst's-7Gal-Organic-Dirt-Extravaganza!!
Good to see ya TX!! Any chance you wanna give me a run down on the process of making a soil? The amendments and etc. Are on the first post http://forum.grasscity.com/index.php?/topic/1304901-Amethyst's-7Gal-Organic-Dirt-Extravaganza!!
Here we go. . We take 1 part peat moss (I like to use a bag of sunshine advanced number 4. or a good peat with some coco chips in it. Just my thing) 1 part compost don't skimp here. Find quality organic. And make part or that earth worm castings. 1 part aerating. I like to use a mixture of whatever I can find locally. Mine consist of expanded shale, crushed lava rock and lava sand, pumice, little perlite, you can even use rich hulls. That's the base. Then take 1 part alfafa meal 1 part crab meal 2 parts kelp meal 1 part near meal Mix the ship together and add 2-3 cups per Sq ft. Then about 2-3 cups rock dust And like 1/2 cup oyster shell flower. Or 1/4 cup gardening lime. Mix all that together keep it moist and let it sit like 4 weeks. Gtg Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using Grasscity Forum mobile app
You will need compost. Add 1 part compost 1 part sunshine 1 part perlite 1 part guano 1 part bone meal 1 part blood meal Ewc load it up as part of compost Lime 1/4 cup per 7.5 gallons And micorrhizal to root mass And i would get kelp meal and add 2 parts. Mix all amendments add 2-3 cups per 7.5 gallons And get some rock dust
Can i use lime in place of rock dust? The amendments i listed are the only ones i can get without ordering. Mine just says natural and organic, no #? Its 85% peat moss 15% lime/perilite. I'm tryin to think of a way to incorporate what I've got. Btw how much is 1 part? I'm real clueless on measurements for this. http://forum.grasscity.com/index.php?/topic/1304901-Amethyst's-7Gal-Organic-Dirt-Extravaganza!!
I've got a compost pile out back, has a lot of manure in it though. http://forum.grasscity.com/index.php?/topic/1304901-Amethyst's-7Gal-Organic-Dirt-Extravaganza!!
