I’m familiar with it. I was trying out AZwormfarm and giving their products a chance. Do you know why everyone says not to use local compost?? Is it because of high salt content? Anyway, I’m using their premium compost, EWC, and soldier fly frass. Seems like it’s cool. I also added MIbeneficials to get my own predator population built up.Have you tried colorado compamy worm castings sold by build a soil? They aren't screened, they have all the bugs, and whatnot in it. Worms too, it looks pretty awesome, you might like it. I am trying it out soon, small family farm, coot approved
It's because you don't know what is in it, you want well thought out compost. What you put in is what you get out like anything. Imagine what goes into your local compost? Grass sprayed with poison, even if not, if it's all grass its crazy high in nitrogen. There is A LOT TO IT.I’m familiar with it. I was trying out AZwormfarm and giving their products a chance.

I reached out to them via email. I hope they respond, I am very interested.It's because you don't know what is in it, you want well thought out compost.

It's so much better isn't it? Growing in a living soil? Looking great!I haven’t watered or filled the Olla’s in a full week! The top layer is a little crusty but everything is fine. Added some Big6 micros/macros, a bunch of defol material from the lowers, and sprouted barley. And back by popular demand, the famous rabbit poo! My fungal gnats are gone and I know they loveso I was holding off. I don’t have time to get EWC but it’s a great alternative.
I have fully bought into it like it’s a fucking cult ideology. I’ve followed everything from Buildasoil, KIS organics, and Coots. It’s not cheap and there is a lot of work that goes into it. It leads to great things like learning to make your own compost and worm bins if you are so inclined. The biggest downside for me has been pests and learning to keep all the critters in balance. I think I let my pots get too dry the last few weeks and all of the sudden I have a white fly issue. I got through a bad fungal gnat issue and I’ve kept the leaf hoppers away, so I’m pretty confident I can work through those issues.What is your opinion on no till after your first cycle?
Once you get your good bugs built up you will have less problems with the bad ones. But could not agree more. I can not believe people still want to grow hydro.I have fully bought into it like it’s a fucking cult ideology. I’ve followed everything from Buildasoil, KIS organics, and Coots.

My biggest surprise is how well sub irrigated planters work with no till. They are like little super chargers. I don’t really worry about yields but the Forum Stomper in my SIP was by far the best thing I’ve ever grown and it was an after thought growing under a shitty 150w blurple light. I only grow auto’s so I think I was able to compensate for lack of power by increasing the DLI by running 20 hours a day.
I can’t wait to smoke this shit and see how good the final product really is tho.
It's the unknown......Once you get your good bugs built up you will have less problems with the bad ones. But could not agree more. I can not believe people still want to grow hydro.
