if ya dont stay on top of bennies frequently (wormshit, compost tea, etc) things cango wrong pretty quick. And sometimes gonna get some deficiencies half way through and that's why I like keep things go simple and hit FAA/wca/wcap/seasalt /LAB and even some JADAM liquid ferts that help...
I also did Gypsum 、seed meal 、compost and Wormshit tho on topsoil before planting that is the main contents in craft blend
.things like oyster shell、crab meal that ocean products always have more or less Sodium.
You can use calcium carbonate and Epsom salts if you want the calcium and mg without the extra nitrogen. Both are cheap powders and will last you many years. No reason to pay for water filled bottles. Also you can control the ratio of calcium to mg. Most Calmags are 4:1.
if ya do so ,go Calmag...
why not hit with organic Calmag nuts line like Pure blend product ,I do believe those application of synthetic calmag gonna kill off most or all of the soil food web microbes.
Congrats and welcome back.
iam also Notill with 30gal soil horizon grower , and hit with KNF & Jadam nuts .
But be honest with ya that 10~15gal re definite not good idea to go organic.
hope that can help ya.
FYi:
Fungi trades nutrients for exudates, but most often nutrients are released as waste after they are consumed by fungi or when the fungi die and are decayed. Much of what is released is nitrogen(ammonium form), and released a chemical that attracts the worm.
I recently setup 40gals , here is my E horizon
I recently setup 40gal outdoor, here is E horizon mixed with crushed stone and sand clay.
indoor soil bed have been used 5*。
I am Vpd firm believer, Who think lower temps and higher humid is ideal, which its far from unless the lights are out and even then it's still too cold.
1. Do u follow the soil horizon principle with 30 gal?
I guess u didn't .
2.lower temps, higher humidity?
Ya'd better keep temp and humid on the same level to help plant recover ASAP, cause environment is key element when growing, and definitely u faced some environmental issues
3.don't feed...
