Hey everyone,

You might remember me as the guy who always bitched about not being about to get anything where I live. Welllll, I'm sure that everyone got sick of hearing it because my GF certainly did.

She took a trip to the states, bringing just a carry on, and came back with a 70+lb suitcase filled with goodies... best second xmas ever haha

Anyways, they are mostly Down to Earth fertilizers and I would like to formulate a super soil style mix that I can use to keep the plants fed thorughout their life.

Heres what I got:

-DtE(Down to Earth) All Purpose (4-6-2)

-DtE Bio-Live (5-4-2)

-DtE AZOMITE granular

-DtE Alfalfa Meal (2.5-1-1)

-DtE Fish Bone Meal (3-16-0)

-DtE Seabird Guano (1-10-0)

I think thats all the DtE stuff...

I also have

Peruvian Seabird Guano which is like 10-10-2 ish

A product called rare earth I think, which is silicate...

and I should have access to worm castings and good compost...

SOOOO what do you guys think? I need help with a veg and flower mixture. I have no experience with these products or with making super style soil. All help is appreciated.

Thanks

Nice haul you got there, you should be able to m a key a great soil.
 
haha yea Iron... its overwhelming! I don't know where to start....

I've been using Fox Farms Happy Frog powered fertilizer, tomato + veg for veggin and fruit + flower for flowering (duh! :D). THey have been great, but I'm almost out and ready to step up my fert game...

I used Nouvelle Chefs recipe with added compost. I can never find it. I dont know why it isn't stickied here in the organic soil threads. There are great soil recipes here sMac. I will look for it.
 
Thanks again Rose...

I've looked through a lot of the recipes, they are all pretty specifc and I'm not sure waht I can substitute of what I have for whats in the recipes... did that make sense?

ANyways, If I start working something out, ill throw it up here to get some opinions...

I use NC's Mix as well, it is absolutely amazing stuff.

This link which im sure you have browsed already http://www.marijuanapassion.com/forum/showthread.php?t=54251 has multiple soil mixes im am sure you can find one to use as a base for your custom soil.

Also, i read that you dont have a hydro store nearby for anything, have you tried a farm supply/feed store, thats where i buy all my soil amendments, just a suggestion.

Good luck man!
 
Thanks for all the input guys. I have made 2 soil mix recipes. One for the first container they are transplanted into for veg, a 2gallon, and then one for the flowering container, a 5gal. Let me know what you guys think.
