Free CO2 with Living Soil

A worm bin in the room offers a lot of CO2. That would be my approach. That way the soil matrix is optimized just for the plant, and CO2 production is in the bin.

I don't use coco or peat, personally. Nothing wrong with it, but I like local leaf mold.

ive been harvest forest floors for a few years, great leaf mould with mycellium already in it.

It's such an un-tapped local resource. I have a local landscaper haul over trucks of it. He has this huge vac system with a chopper that blows the chopped leaves into a trailer with a net top. So when he dumps it looks like a cube coming out. I wet the leaves and tarp for next year.

All free and better than coco or peat. Nutrient-dense and pH neutral. Great aeration

It'll be all wormy, and you'll be all excited, and you'll light one up. It's all so good.
yeah i'm gonna pull off the top layer of the pile and take whatever is closest to the ground and put that in my veggie garden beds and mow up the rest of it. I love free stuff!!!!

Autodidacticism
(also autodidactism) or self-education (also self-learning and self-teaching) is the education without the guidance of masters (such as teachers and professors) or institutions. Generally, an autodidact is an individual who chooses the subject they will study, their studying material and the studying rhythm and time. An autodidact may or may not have formal education, and their study may be either a complement or an alternative to it. Many notable contributions have been made by autodidacts. Influential autodidacts include Leonardo da Vinci, Goethe, Charles Darwin, Thomas Edison, Jimi Hendrix, David Bowie, Steven Spielberg, Quentin Tarantino and Srinivasa Ramanujan.
