holy cow, I log off for a couple days and all sorts of info posted here. Thank you all for all of the info. It has been helpful.
Ok, I went shopping today. Below is what I bought today and the amounts I feel I am going to mix. Feel free to chime in. Might mix tomorrow, might do it sunday. Making 50 gallons or 6.78 C/F. Mixing and letting sit in 3- 32 gallon plastic trash cans to cook for 3-4 weeks.
BASE:
Promix HP- 20 gallons
Perlite- 20 gallons
Earth Worm Castings- 10 gallons
Compost- 10 gallons
ADDERS:
Crab Meal- 2 cups
Alfalfa Meal- 2 cups
Cottonseed Meal- 1 cup
Fish Bone Meal- 3 cups
Kelp Meal- 3 cups
Dolomite Lime- 1.5 cups
Soft Rock Phosphate- 1 cup
Azomite- 3 cups
Oyster shell- 1 cup
Langbenitite- 1 cup
Questions.... Is langbenitite too potent? I have had it around since my last grow, and want to use some if it makes sense. Seems like I'm heavy to the "N" and the "P", but slightly lacking in the "K" . This stuff is 0-0-22, whew. Pretty chunky too, think it will take a while to break down.
The Dolomite Lime is like little chips of rock, same with the phosphate. What if I ground them up to dust in my coffee grinder. To be more the consistency of a meal. Would this break down the rock faster? Would this make the nutrient benefits release too fast, and not last the whole grow cycle?
-I might amend more worm castings, neem meal (more for bug control over nutrients), but couldnt find, another glacial rock dust, as I didnt find another option locally today either.
Thanks everyone.
