I'm building my super soil for outdoor growth. I was looking at the recipe of Coots.
1/3 Sphagnum Peat Moss
1/3 Aeration (pumice, perlite, lava rock, etc..)
1/3 Compost + Earthworm Castings
1/2 cup organic Neem meal
1/2 cup organic Kelp meal
1/2 cup Crab meal/Crustacean meal
Mineral Mix Recipe
1x – Glacial Rock Dust
1x – Gypsum
1x – Oyster Shell Flour or Agricultural Lime
1x – Basalt
Some ingredients in the country I am in are difficult to find, for example the Crab meal or Crustacean meal. But in part I think I solved it by looking inside the fish farms/carpfishing... or found: Krill Meal and Crayfish Meal; on the manufacturer's website they would look like natural, untreated products...

what do you think?
..instead as regards the Mineral Mix Recipe
I found the Gypsum in two versions:
anhydrous agricultural Alabaster Gypsum and natural hydrate Gypsum.
Which one should be used?
I know that the anhydrous version has a much faster buffering capacity...
Thanks!
