This may seem like a really retarded question, but does anyone have a Canadian organic recipe where they can get all the amendments in Canada? I am trying to build an organic soil using TLO book, but I don't seem to be able to find or import certain items. I am ripping my hair out as I am in the far north and I need to cook this shit asap. Thanks in advance.

I did find reindeer shortly after I posted...have either of you used welcome harvest? It is so screwy for me because I can't even source black earth and castings locally...therefore I will most likely recycle my dirt...oh and thank you!

I think they call it flower power... bub food...anyway...thank you so much...the guy at welcome harvest was very helpful and I managed to be able to buy a couple of kilos of gypsum instead of 25kg which I wouldn't use in a 100 years...can someone talk to me about the oyster shells/powder? I want to recycle my dirt as it's pretty pricey to have things shipped to the Yukon...buddy suggested I wouldn't need it but I don't know how comfy I am with fucking around with the recipe before I even get started....thoughts?

I would go instead with an all-purpose type organic granular such as the VeganO from WH or my preferred the Earth Grow from reindeers.

As far as the oyster shell powder and gypsum go, both would be great liming agents and would make for a more complex substitute for dolomite lime.

No i am all for the use of manure as long as you know the source. I like using well composted manure from
organically raised cattle.

Is this to avoid manure? even composted manure? why

The Earth Grow uses turkey litter. The veganO contains no animal by-products.

Not to mention a terpene and flavonoid booster.
Ah, Gypsum, what is the best kind to get ?
