Here’s a all organic dry amendments pack. It’ll cover you from start to finish. Just buy a five gallon bucket, with a pump and airstone to make teas. Also some molasses and aloe Vera extract and you’re square to go. Probably the cheapest, and easiest way to go for organic gardening. Just follow the directions on packaging, and read a few threads on compost teas.

Since you’re starting over anyways, you can make a water only soil. Look at the subcool supersoil thread. I recommend no till anyways. Don’t throw out your soil. Just top dress once a month. Grow some cover crop like clover. Add straw and some red wiggler worms. You can order that at buildasoil also. Then you’re completely organic and will have a self regulating soil food web system. It’s extremely cheap and produces great bud that is resistant to mold and pest. There’s tons of info out there if you know what you’re looking for. HMU if you need some help.

@mista sativa @Kushash what do you guys think of this soil im from the uk so getting a hold of a load of these ingredients is hard so for this grow im just gonna use a pre mixed soil then next grow because i will sell some weed just for the sole purpose of upgrading my set up so i will buy everything i need to be organic next grow. So let me know what you think of this and if not can you recommend anything from the uk. (btw this soil is organic) https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B008MJXGOS/ref=ask_ql_qh_dp_hza

That looks like good stuff. Maybe a little perlite to improve drainage but I never use that soil to know for sure.
For finding ingredients in the UK, maybe the guys in the UK Growers Thread can help if you ask on this thread: https://www.rollitup.org/t/the-uk-growers-thread.179741/

I'm really only guessing not having used it before. What I did was a quick google search and it looked like some growers on other forums used it and liked it. It would be best to do some searching to find out if growers like it or start a thread asking specifically about that soil and see if it draws in some people that use it.

If it was something like fox farm ocean forest I would say 4 weeks of water only, after that if it was me I would probably top dress with Bio Live, Worm Castings and sometimes I add some gypsum. If I thought it was low on Nitrogen I might try Fox Farm Marine Cuisine 10-7-7 instead of the Bio Live 5-4-2. I have no set regimen, I experiment with a variety of fertilizer mixes. With some research you can probably get an idea from some people that have had success with that soil. With soil less is more. It's easier to fix a deficient plant than it is to fix a plant that has been over fertilized.

I didn’t realize you’re in the UK... if I was you I would just build my own soil. It’s quite a bit of work, but if you go no-till from the get go you won’t have to do much with it afterwards. Plus it’ll give you a better understanding of soil composition anyways... Isn’t the UK full of old rich white ladies who grow badass rose gardens? That’s what I think of anyways. Just find a nice garden and supply store near you. You can find soil recipes on here.
