I finally made a soil. The Base is 1 part Peat Moss 1 part Mushroom Compost and 1 part perlite. I added Lime, Kelp Meal, Blood Meal, a dry organic fert for tomatoes and Rock phosphate. Anything else I need or should get? I also made a compost tea with the mushroom compost, blood meal, dry organic fert and Kelp meal. That's as far as I got. In not growing anything yet in waiting on seeds but I have some tomatoes and Peppers growing pretty well. Might wait till next year or get autos. Any suggestions tips?
Rock dust for your soil mix for sure and why the blood meal in the in the tea? I wouldn't add it personally, so just wondering why you do. Casting and guano I would say too
What they said and you are missing the most important thing, quality earth worm castings they are a must have for any organic gardner. The mushroom compost would not be a good substitute for the castings. Oh and a little composted manure would hurt either.
I think you need this http://forum.grasscity.com/organic-growing/1116550-easy-organic-soil-mix-beginners.html Seriously......read it and then do it, you won't be sorry!
Thanks for the help. Ill tweek some things I was sure Mushroom Compost was a good Substitute and I get it free. I also didn't see that I mistook Rock Dust for Rock Phosphate. Ill pick up the other amendments and get a new batch cooking
