ok so I’ve bought volcanic rock dust , as I have just read ppl talk about it for minerals and trace elements and what not , never used it since I bought it like nearly 6 months ago, my question is , how do I use it ? Like just mix in my soil? Or use with my act? Also what is the ratio at which to be used? I heard it must be mixed in the soil for like months before I can plant in it ,any help would be appreciated

You don't have to wait months before you can plant in it, but it may take many months before you actually get any benefit from it. If you're planning on re-cycling or no-tilling, get it mixed in the soil. If you make a new mix every time it's pointless IMHO, your plants would be finished before any of it's broken down. Pointless in an AACT too.
