...I have some perlite in the mix too, but I'm probably going to replace it with calcined DE(Napa 8822) soon...
I'm digging through this thread, but I have a question that I hope you guys won't mind me asking without getting through all 262. I'm understanding so far the role of bone and blood meal in organic mixes, supplying Nitrogen and Phosphorus sources. What supplies the Potassium though? The only thing I'm seeing so far is Kelp Meal, but it doesn't seem that the 1-0-4 rating on kelp meal would be enough to sustain the plant/the microbes sustaining a plant. Is this one of those cases where the numbers just don't mean as much in organics, or am I missing a source of K in this equation?
I have a question BurnOne. I'm using your mix #2. I'm feeding with #3 the tea recipe. I've been using the same soil for the last 3 growing seasons outside. During the winter and early spring the soil sits. Is it ok to replant in the same soil and just get back to business as usual with feeding. Because a couple plants are showing some nute difficency. i was going to check soil ph also. Anyway thanks a lot.....
BurnOne I haven't read all this thread and will probable won't too long for my ADA Ass. Wanted to say thanks for keeping this going. I use a Super Soil mix water only mostly and I love it. I like how you broke your mix down into 1,2,3 very simple. You explain things well. Easy to understand thanks. Aloha
