it is just about all the micro nutrients your plant needs,the glacial has 70 i think,only thing is,it is not redally avaible it takes a little time to break down to do what it designed to do,so if your making soil now in about 6 months you will start benifting from it, i just amended my soil last week with essential minor elements,has these elements
mag 8.0
sulfur 8.0
boron 0.03
copper 0.12
iron 5.0
manganese 2.0
zinc 0.50
chlorine 1.0
this is all the micro nutes needed my plant is just grow with it come spring up and wait for it to become benifital,bag say dont apply more than 4 times a year,so im thinking a 2 month cook of my soil will have me right were i need to be.
there are several compines that sell the water soluable micro nutreint and you just water them in with your feed ,im looking for a long term effect though,when i got my soil sample test results back i had almost nill when it came to micro nutreints

So for a top-dressing may not so good because of ythe long "break-down" time Consider using it at week 4 of veg and week for of flower and amybe in transition stage? thoughts ? Guess might as well mix my medium now for next grow in April

Do you mind sharing how you amend your soil? Looking for a “recipe” to try out this year.

For outdoors, I was thinking to amend my soil with compost, azomite, humate, and kelp.

you can buy water soluble micro nuts,you stir it in wit your regluar feeding,they are not as concentrated as the minerals in rock form if you dig,

For outdoors, I was thinking to amend my soil with compost, azomite, humate, and kelp.
that list of micro nutrients above,that has micro nutrients covered,my base is like everyone else 1:1:1
sorgum peat moss
humus manure compost /tractor supply brand and great stuff
perlite/vermiculite/kiddie playground wood chips,any of these i have when building the soil basically hahahah,i like the chips ,they dont break down as quick
those are the 3 use
then blood ,bone,kelp worm cast,gypsum azomite baysalt
also use any comfrey i might have growing at the time,shred it up throw in the pile
all that covers the macro nutrients.
right now im dealing with high very high Nitrogen Sulfur,got my soil test back couple weeks ago,both them are over the top by a lot and the micro nutrient were depleted.
so the minerals above went in first,im give it 2 more weeks ,get another sample for testing,see if it knocks down that nitrogen and sulfur issue,if it dont ,i will cut my containers by half with more peat moss,it is acidic and will also bring down the ph,im running 6.8,i stay at 6.5
the main thing i tell every one,when making your soil,i think i still have a list somewere,but use anything you like as long as you think ahead,like you want long term and medium term amendment,
more of the most popular amends every one use is short term or fast acting amends,all good for top dressing i guess ,i shoot for long term ,i rework all my containers about every 3 years depending on were i live,i now live on a rock so every 2 years.
go on amazon for best price,or go direct to www.mysoilsavvy.com
ive used these folk for a few years now,test is almost 30 bucks,they send you the whole kit and has a return address for you to ship sample to them,results come by email and very easy to read.30 bucks might seem like a lot ,but ive bought a siungle pound of a mineral that i didnt need for 30 bucks if you dig what im saying,why guess ,KNOW what you got

the soil cutter starter is very good,ive run it and did to the price went out of my range,water only and got 2 harvest from each 5 gal bucket,yep good stuff,i usre to have a discount code i give to folk to buy with 15 % off for some reason they took it away,not sure why never even asked,just quit buying from them,bullshit to build a soil,im not paying seperate shipping charges on every thing i buy,and when i do it sevaral pounds and they wont bundle it up for one ship charge ,so i use kiss organics now.
kelp4less done forgot were they come from,i was on the foot hold of the cannibis movement with them even before cali got involved in there company,they do have choice products,but i only take a fucking once if you dig

dont get me wrong folks ,azomite is great,from what i understand only difrence from azomite and rock dust is azomite is glacial rocks,and they all or what or plants got to have,i amend every year with it,my soil is way out of whack and im having to take each 18 gal tote and take out half the soil and replace with peat moss the bring down ph,nitrogen and sulfur levels,the minerals im using are already together ,when i went to look into buying just what my soil report said i needed ,each mineral was 30 bucks and only sold buy the pound,and all were same price hahaha,so made better since for me to just start over and cut it each container starting with micro nutes in first,the macro nutes are easy NPK there 100's of things for that hahah.
i wouldnt even try to build soil without azomite ,rock dust ,baysalt,it takes all them time to do there thing ,but once there they stay there and dont leach out unless you get abundant rain that year

Yea !! Like to look at the products to get an idea for different mixtures. Purchased their dry Kelp and "Liquid Gold" got excellent results with liquid gold in flower; it increased terp's and essential oils. It's a bit pricy but it;s concentrated and last a long time, considering their fish hydrate

there is a difrence between hydroslate and emulsions,one is for bacteria ,other for fungus
the soil starter cutter is some good shit and they break down the ingreds but not all and sure not how much,if they did i be on that shit because it works very well and you can use it with any soil bag or your yard

alfalfa meal - Azomite - enzyme powder and fulvic acid ? brew for24 hrs. this produces tarcontanol a natural growth stimulated (a by-product of alfalfa meal)
