"It's De-hee-hee-cent!"
Base
3 cu/ft peat
2 cu/ft coco coir
1 cu/ft coco croutons
1/2 cu/ft builders sand
2 cu/ft lobster compost
2 cu/ft bu's blend compost
1 cu/ft bio-char
3 cu/ft rice hulls (loose)
1.5 cu/ft growstones (large)
Amendments
8 cups alfalfa meal
6 cups azomite
9 cups crab meal
7 cups diatomaceous earth
6 cups greensand
5 cups gypsum
5 lbs humic
10 cups kelp meal
1/2 cup langbenite
8 cups lime
8 cups molasses (dry)
1 lb mykos
10 cups neem meal
8 cups oyster shell
4 cups seabird guano (granulated)
4 cups symphony (high quality composted chicken shit)
no cook time needed
makes about 15 cubic feet or 100 gallons
perfect for no till beds
just add water!
really helps to toss in some worms and mulch the top of the soil too.
*edit jan 2018 - switched to malibu compost Bu's blend... if you have access to fresh worm castings then replace the lobster compost with the malibu instead. and by fresh i mean if you get your ewc from a worm farm. (ideal) if your buying everything from the store, malibu is better than vermiblend or coast of maine, imo. but for the sake of diversity for now im replacing bagged store bought ewc with malibu and tossing some red wigglers in the beds. the malibu has live tiger stripe worms in the bag and i found dozens of cocoons as well. you could very well replace both with 4cf of malibu but i havent tried that personally. i will in the future though because i am in love with this stuff. even though its cow crap it is really good, and i already had bird crap in here anyway. using this hasnt changed the no cook time either.
