Its time for me to start my 2015 seeds. After spending $800 at attitude on 7 strains, I picked two from those 7 for my summer harvest. I only plan on doing 12 in 100 gallon pots but I started 35 seeds just incase I do more. Both strains are from female seeds, iced grapefruit and white widdow X big bud. Not much going on so far, seeds are soaking in water until tomorrow morning then will go straight into cups of soil. Soil has been mixed and starting to fill the 100 gallon pots so soil can rest a month before plants go in.
main soil mix for the year with other stuff added during transplant or in teas:
400 gallons new roots organic 707
400 gallons used roots organic 707
400 gallons worth of dirt from my compost pile
50lb bag blood meal
25lb bag alfalfa meal
120 quarts (6 bags worm castings)
10 gallons 12-12-2 pruvian bat quano
6 bags bags of general organics ancient forest
5 lbs of kelp meal
10 lbs dolomite lime
10 lbs bone meal.
all the poop from 3 alpacas, they all poop in one spot so its easy to collect.
Tea includes
Beneficial biologicals Sea Green
general organics ancient forest
blood meal
worm castings with kelp and volcanic ash
bat and seabird guano
molasses
compost from my compost pile (old yard waste, alpaca and dog poop, left over food, old soil, ash from burning oak in my fire place, and anything else that can go in a compost pile)
All soil ingredients have been sitting in a pile for 6 month being turned twice a month, i put all dirt in their pots a month before plants go in.
My mix could probably be better but its worked well for me and the cost is minimal. all suggestions welcome on adding/removing ingredients for next seasons soil and tea.
