Here's my "sooper simple" soil mix that has done wonders for my crops. I feed with chlorine free h20 only throughout veg and then add + molasses + Aurora Innovations HPK bloom booster weeks 3-7 of flower.
1 bag Fox Farm Happy Frog (2 Cu Ft)
1 bag Sunshine 4 or Pro Mix HP (3.8 Cu Ft)
¼ bag Fox Farm Big and Chunky perlite (1 Cu Ft)
5 cups pure EWC
1.5 cup soybean meal
1.5 cup fish bone meal
1.5 cup greensand
1.5 cup powdered humic acid

I'm pretty new to super soils, so please feel free to give opinions. I've made about 6 batches now tweaking it each time. Imho I feel it needs to sit at least 60 days, and my last batch has been sitting since june - I'll be using some soon.
1 bag Fox Farm Ocean Forest
1/3 bag Light Warrior
1 gallon Vermicompost
1 gallon chunky perlite
1 gallon earthworm castings
1 gallon canna coco coir
1/4 gallon Alaskan humus
1/2c blood meal
1.5c fish bone meal
1c kelp meal
1c Azomite
1c rock sulfate
1.5c lime
1/2c alfalfa meal
1/4 crab meal
1/4c neem meal
2 tsp great white
I usually fill 1/4 to 1/3 of my final flower pot with this the rest some kind of soilless mix. Another good helping of great white in the pot.
Ty!
Thanks Slap! I noticed another recipe or two that had oyster shell. I figured it would help out with the PH and calcium. I'll probably add a little of that in the next batch. I had tried doing some teas, but I consistently was messing them up. I have been experimenting with a light supersoil, and then watering in with light botanicare. This seemed to work pretty good. I am getting back into the teas, I just have to remind myself to use a test plant and not do the whole garden with an unknown! lol. I love that this site has an organic soil section! If nothing else, I just super enjoy making super soils! :)Looks all good Ty. The only things I might change is add a little high N guano(Bird or Bat). Then something high in calcium like oyster shell or oyster shell meal to help the lime with the PH.
I also use Great White but I only add when transplanting and then when watering after about three weeks later, but that is all preference. Nice Mix should produce some beautiful ladies.

Yo Slap do you let you mix sit before you use it if so how long nice work btw
farout thanks for the info your mix seems pretty legit your shit looks fire
-Oyster Shell chips
If I may ask? Why do you use Oyster shell chips?
The only thing I can think of is for aeration and some Ca etc.Even though it already has Oyster shell powder for the Ca.
Hey hows it going i was hoping you could kick me down some knowledge on how you finish composting your super soil and how you check if its ready i been experimenting with some incredible products until i sharpen my own compost skills.....about a day after mixing my amendments to my old soil i let sit and right away theres fuzzy white stuff growing on surface!!!I'm pretty new to super soils, so please feel free to give opinions. I've made about 6 batches now tweaking it each time. Imho I feel it needs to sit at least 60 days, and my last batch has been sitting since june - I'll be using some soon.

Ty!
oyster shell maybe similar to diatameceaous earth or however you spell it and that sheds up crawlers

I use Soil Secrets....not soil secret thats from PA Soil Secrets is from NM
I hope it's beneficial lol guess I find out when the temp drops and I through a cutting in thereOyster shell is mostly calcium carbonate. Diatomaceous earth is mostly silica. Not the same, only come from the ocean at one time, that's it.
Fuzzy white stuff is likely fungus, aka mold, and isn't that what you're trying to culture?
Smells like good soil ill take a pic of it next time cuz I mixed that fungus in with the rest so it's earth magic protein crumbles TTP compost and Earh worm castingix in recycled soil from TLO tea grow....stored in 20gal. Trash can in closet without lid and watered similar to yours damp not soaked with sprayer and I would say there is 20 to 30 % perlite 10 to 15% vermiculite 50 %coco and the rest peat mossFuzzy stuff growing on top is a mold/fungus/bacteria of some kind. But after one day? I'm not really sure what to tell you? If you have not used it on your plants yet, I would be careful. I really don't think there should be anything growing in it like that. How does it smell? And what is the water content like? What are you storing it in, and where?
I mix all my ingredients dry, and then I layer it into rubbermaid containers. I very lightly mix in some water. If I'm being patient I'll even use a pump sprayer. But I'm guessing like 1/2 gallon of water per about 1.5 cu ft of mix. Maybe a little more. The soil should not be "soaking wet". I might let it sit like that for a few weeks in the containers, taking care to let it vent a little after first mixing it because it will condensate. I also like to remix it every few weeks just to make sure everything is breaking down correctly.
Let me know if any of that doesn't make sense! I have since changed up my mix. I need to post up the updated recipe.
