Decided to start up a new topic for this new setup. I have decided to go to full living organic soil, while I was running organics in 12 gallon pots we are increasing everything.
The setup continues to build but the game plan is simple, 3x 30 gallon Grassroots Living Soil Pots, soil will be a mix of 2 bags of Diamond Duke Dominion blend, and 1 bag of Build a Soil Light Recipe per 30 gallon pot, plan will be to keep the soil level somewhat low, with 3 cubic feet of soil totaling about 22.5 gallons of soil per bag to start them off
They will be getting Landrino white clover cover crop as well as a 13 seed cover crop mix. Also plan to top with straw, will have red wigglers coming when the bags are put together
Bases for each bag are a 24” hot water tank heater drain pan, 5 cinder brick stood on their side, and on top is 2 pieces of coated clothes racks 30”x18” each overlapping 6” in the middle resting on the center brick there will be the 2 in the 4x8 and 1 in the 4x4 soil and base and bag here and ready to go in as soon as the 4x4 empties, no rush she smells like Hawaiian Punch in there


Once the current run finishes in the 4x4 and I can move in the bag I’ll fill all 3 up and start the cover crop, the cuts going in will be done 1x of the revegged Frostette #6, 1x kahuna #2, and 1x Kahuna #3
figured I’d start the topic ahead of time as I gather materials and get stuff set up!
