After doing some comparisons, it's obvious the common bro-forum ratio of 1/3 compost to 1/3 peat is detrimental to speed of growth. I've opted to completely leave out all compost and manure this next run. So far my peat's cooking great inoculated with nothing but some endomyco spores. ~1 cup of food per cube was steaming hot in 24hrs.
I have a trash can full of compost extract to add, and am wondering, why bother? Is there any reason whatsoever to add compost/manure products to already functioning organic systems? I'll be adding organic material, I'll be adding labs. Adding compost seems like redundancy with the added benefit of killing the mediums texture. I'd rather feed my soil fresh organic food than old organic scraps anyway, right?
