Hey guys, I'm planning my 3rd indoor grow. I was in hydro with clay pebbles but I want to go full organic this time. I'd like to get some soil that would do the full grow with only a few additives needed.

What do you think about these products from a dublin city center garden shop. I was thinking of the Growise compost + perlite + seaweed for calmag. Any recommendations for were to get really good soil around Dublin?

Growise Peat Free Organic Vegetable Compost 56ltr

Space is bit of a problem, I've a 4' x4'x7' tent and most importantly only another 4' x 2' for storage space related to the grow. so need to keep it simple, I cant have umpteen bags of different animal shit lying around the place.

[bri77]

Yeah, I was thinking of that kind of stuff, just wanted to make sure there wasn't some better alternative available locally.

 

[Roobarb]

@Roobarb @theslipperbandit @leesophie Irish

Check locally lads, but I found out today that cookstown (NI) recycling centre gives away free organic compost on "national compost week" from the 4th to the 10th of May.
It's basically all the grass cutting & garden waste they collect over a year from the public & contractors.

It might not be amazing organic compost, but it's free & there's no limit to how much you can take.

As Tesco say, "every little helps"


Have a good weekend lads!

Cookstown recycling centre burn theirs, comes out like real fine black peat.

Try Westland peat for your medium mate, their stuff is 100%.
Got a few dozen bags at the end of the summer for the polytunnel, been working in a yard of theirs in Liverpool so I've been getting discount.

 

[bri77]

Why do some promote their soil as "100 % Peat free"? Whats wrong with peat, is it just the sustainability issue?

 

[Skinny11]
