Going organic, and in need of advice in regards to feeding and soil.

Greetings fellow weed lovers :peacock:

I have now done my first 3 grows in soil. On those grows ive been using a lucas style feeding shedule. Been working quite okay, but it's always been my intent to grow organic, once i learned some basics about growing. And they time has come :)

My setup:
1mx1m home made growroom. 600watt MH for veg and 600watt hps for flowering.
I live in a apartment, and that means i am greatly limited in regards to making my own teas etc. So i will stick to stuff i can buy in my local grow shop. And my choice is Biobizz products. Both their soil and food. My best guess is that i cant use the fish mix. Simply because of the smell.
Will i be okay with the following list? And since i am not using the fish mix, should i adjust on any of the following to compensate? (in regards to the biobizz feeding shedule)
Biobizz ALG-A-MIX
Biobizz Bioheaven
Biobizz Bloom
Biobizz Grow
Biobizz Root Juice
Biobizz Topmax

Also. How would a motherplant feeding shedule look like? Again without the fish mix.

Allmix soil is the choice. Would you recommend adding anything else to the mix? AKA more perlite, wormcasting etc?

I will mostly be growing scrog style. Anything from 3 to 16 plants.

Thank you very much for reading my post :tiphat:

sorry zemi i have no experience w/ biobizz products so no advice to share.

you may be right about moving the question to the indoor soil forum, especially if you're looking for help ironing out a good feeding schedule.

many of the folks frequenting this forum are "off the bottle" so to speak and don't manage their gardens according to a feeding schedule.

if you like the results of the biobizz grow and would like to learn how to replace some of those inputs with home made versions, you'll find a lot of good info on that here in the organic soil forum.

hth!

Thanks for the reply Heady :)

It's not because i want to buy all the food. But because i am highly limited in making my own soil and nutes. I live where i grow, and i need to keep my grow as stealthy as possible. I may have other options opening in the future. But right now, i will have to stay on the bottled nutes. And from what i can read in various topics, Biobizz is about the best bottled organic food to get :)
I just need a good base to start out on. And if i look at the standard feeding shedule provided by Biobizz, it looks like the fish mix is more of a alternative to the "grow" bottle. I guess their standard shedule is a good enough base to start on.

Would it be considered rude, to repost this topic in the "indoor soil" forum? :)

i've heard others whose opinions i respect say biobizz is one of the best options if you want to go with organics in a bottle.

you can ask a mod to move the thread to the indoor soil forum. just send a pm.

good luck with the flowers!

Well here you are in the Soil forums... I personally have been happy using bottled organic nutes when I grew :)

I've been growing in soil for years so I can chime in. I have not used Biobizz products before, but I've heard they are very good. Bottled organics work very well and the same can be said about dry organics.

There are a lot of boosters and additives out there. You don't need to break the bank to get a high quality yield. You want to be sure you've got a good source of calcium/magnesium and a bloom booster. That is all you need other than your veg and bloom fertilizer.

Greetings :)
I'm well in to my first organic grow now. The feeding ended up being sticking to the shedule provided by Biobizz, in a feed, feed, water cycle. And every thierd day i do a foliage feed with the ALG-A-MIX, just before lights off.
What can i say. The strongest and healthiest plants ive had so far. The product is in my opinion WELL worth the money :)
I have 16 pots of 10 liters each, and each plant is topped and trained to have 4 main colas. This is day 19 of 12/12 :peacock:

Edit!
The soil is All Mix, and ive added 1 liter of organic Biobizz coco and 1 liter of Leca per 12 liters of soil.
