living soil isnt a brand name, its just soil as your medium. sure you can use a drip feed style watering system with soil, it works. use individual pots the indoor garden bed is overrated works better outdoors. oh yeah last but not least, use your brain.
I would strongly suggest using a earth box or a city picker pot. The hardest part of living organics is getting your watering right. These pots are self watering. Also I would check out build a soil. They have a ton of good info and put videos that really explain things well.
This is not correct. Living soil is just as it says living. It’s is alive with living micro organisms insects worms and a constant mulch layer that is being broken down by these organisms.living soil isnt a brand name, its just soil as your medium. sure you can use a drip feed style watering system with soil, it works. use individual pots the indoor garden bed is overrated works better outdoors. oh yeah last but not least, use your brain.
This is correctOkay, those are unfortunately conflicting pieces of advice. I was hoping someone would be familiar with the Living Soil from Florganics, specifically its composition, which is probably crucial in determining whether and how many additional components need to be added. Until now, I've always heard that additional fertilization really isn't necessary. I haven't heard about using Bone Meal in this context either.
For watering, I would like to use the Blumat drip system. If set up correctly, the Living Soil shouldn't become too wet, right? At this point, I'm just wondering how many of the Blumat "Maxis" I should use. If the pot or even the bed has a lot of volume, they might be necessary, right?
I think both of you have a misunderstanding. Hes not talking about what you just said, he’s talking about living soil as in a brand that you buy prepackaged. Im not talking about what you said either because Living soil (not the brand type) is just organic soil. If you grow organic your soil is going to be living you dont need to callit living soil its redundant and idiotic, get a microscope on any organic soil grow ( one that doesnt claim itself living soil) and you’ll see microbes. Again I wasnt here to argue semantics, thats what you just did lmao.This is not correct. Living soil is just as it says living.

Conflicting peaces of advice. Manufacturers make all kinds of clames and they play with words like it's organic.Okay, those are unfortunately conflicting pieces of advice.

It’s funny cause part of Youngsang’s plight in his book are people in this world that make it more complicated than it needs to be, those that try to create seperate distinctions than what SOIL is, what soil NATURALLY is, and what SOIL is by itself. I don’t think people have even read his book, he doesnt even use the term living soil haha thats for the tiktok kids.

I can tell you without question that Florganics and any other living soil you buy or create yourself will need to be fed.
Like I said. Manufacturers make all kinds of clames but your not going to dump a few bags of this stuff in a pot, turn of a self watering system and pump out cannabis plants. It just does not work like that. I'm sorry to have to tell you this but, if you are so lazy that you cannot pick up a watering can twice a week and need a self watering system to look after 4 plant. Growing cannabis is likely not the hobby for you.
FLO is a natural fertilizer with living microorganisms that transforms your substrate into a probiotic medium and optimally supplies your plants with nutrients in all stages of life.
FLO is a complete product range in one component: base fertilizer with macro and micronutrients, natural root, growth, and bloom stimulators, enzymes, silicates, amino acids, enzymes, CalMag, and living microorganisms. No additional products are necessary.
FLO is incredibly easy to use and delivers phenomenal harvests of connoisseur quality. It is mixed just once with soil or coco – all you need then for a successful harvest is water.
With FLO, you can reuse your soil over and over! Simply recycle your used substrates instead of constantly buying new soil. This is not only practical and saves money, but it is also sustainable and contributes to environmental protection.

Very nice. I like the rice hulls. They are a great source of Silica.I like earth boxes. Very user friendly. Easy to make. I used the octopot design. This was topped with rice hulls. My design has a worm feeding tube. That's the one on the left. Worms turn food into castings in 2 months. Is how I feed my earth box, besides top dressing. I feel like the less I have to do, the better!!View attachment 2158650
