Hello!

got some organic soil, earthworm casting, kelp meal, alfalfa meal and greensand

I would stay with the org soil and castings as base soil and use the kelp and alfalfa in tees or fermented plant extracts.


Thanks in advance for the advice! I'm stoked to be heading down this path and want to achieve as much greatness as possible the first time around =D

Cheers!

Its so nice that many are making the sift into organics for me it sparked a new joy in growing all the best to you and may the bud lords be with you

Also try and find the stuff you need local and skip out on excotic products and mining related products - one can fast get addictive to imported bat guanos, fluvic acids and other exsotic componds that are not really needed.

I tryed this year to max out with foliar feeds and bat guanos (high P type) but have found that my base pigion manure works just as fine its very difficult to see the different between the test rows and reg ones. For me organics have also been a mental path where i try to get away from the bottel nute addiction i had moving on to a more simple path using fewer products..

Less is more !!!!!

Diversity is key for organics.You dont need to use a lot of any one thing.Just use many things.Feed the herd the herd will feed your plant.I Love steak but i dont want it at every meal.worm castings,guanos blood meal,bone meal,compost, alfalfa,crab meal shrimp meal greensand etc.also if recycle material being used like peat add some lime to adjust ph faster than herd can.mix wet let sit in dark area for minimum 2 weeks then use.If your able to compost do it.the secret to big tasty yields is a healthy plant. simple no magic or snake oil needed.good luck
