I am thinking about using peat moss. But i need a good recipe that will make my plants explode. I am tight on money so i m thinking about making my own mix.

For 50 bucks you can get a bale of promix on amazon. Or just mix up some compost and perlite with some local dirt? You're still going to have to spend money making your own soil. Why not make a Hempy cup? Hydro. Rock wool Or CoCo. Cheaping out on your growing medium is never is good idea.

You can do a mix of worm casting, coco, peat. Or something similar as well.

20%Worm casting, 5% compost, 70 % COCO, and 5% peat.

Or you can figure out your own ratios to your liking with these ingredients:

Coco, earthworm castings, rock phosphate, greensand, azomite, sweetener lime, Alaskan Ancient Forest compost,epsom salts, powdered kelp.

Soil "less"? I'm thinking a hempy bucket. But then money for dtw nutes? No, wait. Something with no soil, but not spending excess money (such a thing?) on wasted nutes? Water?

Ok, admittedly I'm stoned. But aside from that, you seem to be budget-concsious, but planning to grow in a soil-like medium. Maybe you could mix some things and come close. But the cost may still suck cuz your buying multiple componenents. Maybe just a plain sack of soil? If your budget conscious and have some dedication&patience you can make it happen, right? Just gotta dial in what your budget allows (nutrients &environment).

I'm kinda buzzed so if I'm full of it, please scroll on.

Hope you sort it out and grow big.
