Can I add and mix gypsum 1 week later, after I have mixed everything up in the no till recipe and let it to cook? Amended per cuF with: 1/2 - 1 cup Neem or Karanja 1/2 - 1 cup Kelp 1/2 - 1 cup Crab/Crustacean meal 1 cup MBP (Malted Barley Powder) 1/2 cup Gypsum (nice sulphur source) 4-6 cups Basalt 6-8 cups Biochar
Added the "high in what nutrients". Is it accurate for all, the ones you are familiar with? Dosage based on 16g/60l of soil mix (Perlite+ewc+peatmoss (4:3:3 ratio) 6.4:4.8:4.8 gallons). Nutritional amendments: Target number of cups 6. Bat guano 32 tsp (96grams) High in nitrogen Bone meal 2 US cups (400grams) High in phosphorus Neem cake 1/2 cup High in nitrogen Shrimp shell/skin 1 cup High in calcium, phosphorus, chitin Alfalfa grass 1/2 cup High in nitrogen Gypsum 1 cup High in sulphur, calcium Fish meal 6 tbsp High in nitrogen CI Rock phosphate 1/4 cup High in phosphorus Mycorrhizae 1 tsp Epsom salt 30ml High in magnesium, calcium Fermented goat manure 160grams High in potassium, magnesium Bio Organic HI-FERT 160grams High in phosphorus, potassium, magnesium Humic Phosphate 1/2 tsp High in humic acid, phosphorus Humic Organic 1/2 tsp High in humic acid, nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium Humic Amino 1/2 tsp High in humic acid, nitrogen, magnesium, amino acid Super Organic 100 1/2 tsp High in nitrogen, calcium, TE Liquids: Potassium humate 4g/1liter High in humic acid, potassium Fish Amino Acids (FAA) 10ml/1liter EM 2ml/1liter Folia+ (kelp) 1ml/1liter
Is this in granular or powdered form? I read the dosage should be lower for powdered. 1/2 cup Gypsum (nice sulphur source)
No, just making sure. 1/2 cup gypsum per cf is what stated in no till recipe, but it did not state it is powdered or granular. I see in the states, some of your products, you have both powdered and granular (e.g rock phosphate, gypsum, azomite, humic acid) whereas all these are powdered in my region. Also, I see the dosage used for powdered is about 1/4 that of granular.
Made the list a lot simpler. I added the fruiting fertilizer because there is no good potassium source in the list. Do you think the N or P should be reduced further? If need to reduce N, then options are to reduce bat guano to 1/2 cup and/or fish meal to 4 tbsp. If need to reduce P, then bone meal will be reduced to 1 cup. This is for 2cuft (16gallons). Nutritional amendments: Target number of cups 6. 1 cup=250ml. Bat guano (10:3:1) 3/4 cup (108grams) Bone meal (3:9:1) 1.5 cups (319grams) Shrimp skin (ave 6:6:0) 1 cup Neem cake (5:1:1) 1/2 cup Alfalfa grass (2:1:2) 1/2 cup Fruiting fertilizer (2:5:8) 1 cup Fish meal (ave 8:6:0) 6 tbsp Gypsum 1/4 cup (Ca23%/S18%) Epsom salt 5 tsp (Mg10%/S13%) Mycorrhizae 1 tsp Total: 6 cups Mineral amendments: Dolomite *add later only if needed. Azomite 1/3 cup Biochar 16 cups Liquids for watering: Potassium humate 4g/1liter Fish Amino Acids (FAA) 10ml/1liter EM 2ml/1liter Folia+ (kelp) 1ml/1liter
