KGB’s EarthBox Grow

[KGB]

I have some early earth boxes that I use because I want to grow in soil but my main goal is a grow where I don’t add anything if I don’t want to. Especially Calmag. So this is my conclusion and here is what’s in the box. Please check out YouTube for EarthBox failures including build-a-soil. They just don’t understand the technology.

Whats in my mix per earthbox

1 cubic ft of Promix Organic in the yellow compressed bag (60% peat moss)
1 cubic ft of 100% peat moss also Promix brand

4 Tablespoons mycorrhiza
1/4 cup glacial dust
1/4 cup basalt dust
2 cups perlite
2 cups fast acting lime
1 tablespoon grow dots (stragetically placed
1/4 cup Dr Earth tomato fertilizer
1/4 cup worm castings
1 cup 7-7-7 fertilizer

And now for the pictures of starting the grow will commence

And this is what I am growing. The Cinderella Purple is from Jan as is the Ice Princess for the grow off contest

I germinated the seeds but Jan’s took the how fast can they explode contest. The following pictures are just 14 hours apart. I had already planted the Ice Princess but the other three only had 1/2 inch tails. 14 hours later they are out of control. I will be modifying a different way so that I still get this type of growth but tons easier. I am still hoping I didn’t break a taproot they grew so long.
