^^^ Said it better than I could.
The practice of creating base "soils" using peat, worm castings, and pumice or perlite, and then ammending it with such things as rock dust, alfalfa meal( 72 elements, or something, it is a plant nutrient accumulator, like comfrey or stnging nettles), Neem seed meal and karanja seed meal(pest resistance) Kelp (every grower uses kelp products, Im sure, but I mean kelp meal, from the feed store), etcetera
Not all growing organics requires the use of guano, or composted poo, except Earth Worm Castings.
I plan on doing a side by side this spring, maybe before then, with a non-organic line, a bottled organic line, and a home-made line, with what I am learning. (yes, I started on bottled organics, until I found out a lot isn't). I plan on using 2 or 3 clones of 2 different strains, just to make it more fair. It still wont be representative, with a small sample, but hopefully it will give me a TRUE indication whether FOR ME I would yield better/more/etc with bottles, which I still wont do, but still
To each their own, I prefer organic, non gmo, local stuff. Not because its cool or hip, but because "we dont own this world(although we act as if we did) its a loan from the children of our childrens kids..." (-brent)
Thanks for lettin me bee here
