I found gypsum and oysters shell locally! Looks like I can get this all together now!

Ok... Here's what I've got now...

Peat
Perlite
Ewc/dairy compost

Kelp

Gypsum
Oyster shell

I haven't been able to track down neem or crab shell... I think I'll use alfalfa and oyster shell... How does that sound?

Sounds like a good start to me.

Are you in the States? www.kisorganics.com has those ingredients and you can get up to 36 lbs of basalt shipped for $15.

Hope that helps,

Well, I'm happy to say that the plants I put in the bagged soil are doing very well...

These clones had been in my aero cloner for almost two months with water only and they were pretty yellow...and some leaves were dying off... Today, the plants are green and growing after a week... I'm happy with that...

are you guys using oyster shell (flakes), or oyster shell powder?
