Hey
I would like your opinions on following ingredients for supersoil:
- Some good storebought soil for base, reused now
- Compost
- Wormcastings
- Biochar
- Perlite
- Zeolite
- Pumice
- Azomite
- Alfalfa
- Kelp meal
- Crustacean meal
- Soybean meal
- Fish meal
- Bone meal
- Humic acid
- Blood meal (Possibly not if I can't find it)
I'm not sure if I have enough PK in the mix, there's a couple ingredients I wanted to add but can't find em anywhere.
Do you think the mix will work well ? Any suggestions ?
Thanks!
It's not that simple as a smaller pot will just give you a smaller plant. They will be so much harder to keep healthy the whole year. That plant will grow and grow until it runs out of nutrients. Either it won't be healthy, or it will still get just as big as a bigger pot. Only the plant will just want to grow tall and skinny. because it has no lateral roots. Plants naturally only want to grow a little wider then their roots. It would suck to have a 16ft tall, 4ft wide, unhealthy plant that can't fight off disease come flower time. Larfy buds with rot from dying leaf can be likely. If i wanted smaller plants, id use a 100 but plant a teeny tiny clone like July 1st. You can plant a clone june 1st that will totally max out a 300 gal.
As far as coots mix goes, i think it's wayy expensive and won't do anything a cheaper mix wont do. That rock dust is going to take 100 years to break down to do anything for you. But i really like the texture of the coots being 1/3 compost, 1/3 drainage, 1/3 fluff.
I follow the same ratios with less expensive ingredients.
I do something like
1 part lava rock
1 part perlite
1 part coco
1 part fir bark or peat
1 part cow manure compost
1 part green waste compost
For amendments per yard
37.5 lb of shutzman chicken pellets
10 lb of fishbone
2 lb calphos
2 lb langbeinite
1 lb potash
10 lb alfalfa
Ph balance with lime if necessary. But that should be balanced without it.
No compost tea, no liquid feeding. A couple light top dressings if you are feeling frisky. That will give you more nutrients available the first year at 1/2 the price. Next year get a soil sample and balance minerals to Albright ratios.
That's just what has worked best for me over the years. Kind of part coots mix, part Tom hill mix, with a dash of my own style.
what size is that container my friend?

amended coco coir. suppliments? just cutting edge solutions calmag, epsom for additional mag, and pH down solution. i use down to earth products, charlie's composted chicken shit, earth worm castings, mycos. i break up old root balls, use leaf & cut stem, peals , & veggie scraps and cook that for 30 days. 2 bales of promix & 10 blocks of coco has lasted 2.5 years. I grow anywhere from 80 to 100 plants (mothers, cuts, etc) at a clip. however, my main "juice" is fish emulsion.Just wanted to add are you in coco or is that soil and what are you using for supplements? Will have a 2.0 in flower in a few weeks
Og i think you was adding your question to useless question but i think star is usually in promix in 5 and 7 gallons.. Not sure of his nutes but im sure he will chime in. i think his 6000 watts of hps is a big contributing factor to lol
Beautiful Star Crash! God I miss that strain. One of the best I have smoked.
Nice fade on her StarC! Looks great
Man 2.0 looks like quite the yielder, especially in comparison to a lot of the micronug Cookies pics out there

She’s in a 5 gallon (or she was in a 5 gallon my hands are all sticky now) pro mix & canna nutesJust wanted to add are you in coco or is that soil and what are you using for supplements? Will have a 2.0 in flower in a few weeks
