Ok Sub here's the ingredients I'm thinking it is pretty hot and I am using Black Gold Coco Blend right now which isn't too hot at all so I was thinking of using the Amazon Bloom for the 3/4 of my pot and the BGCB for the top soil to transplant into what do you think?? I'm just super lazy and don't really have room to mix soil like you so I'm thinking it will work considering the Black Gold bag says you don't need to use anything but water for the first 2 weeks...

AMAZON BLOOM
Premier Natural-Organic Potting Soil This premier potting soil containing peat moss, forest compost, coconut coir, feather meal, bat guano, marinebird fossilized guano, steamed bone meal, sulfate of potash, magnesia from langbenite, neem meal, earthworm castings, sea kelp (ascophyllum nodosum), humate ore (leonardite), oyster shell lime (ph adjuster). Does not require fertilization, depending on the plants & environment, for 30, 60 up to 90 days. It's the preferred companion to the Earth Juice line of fertilizers. The "Best" flowering planting mix on the market.

I've noticed this Amazon Bloom mix has a lot of the stuff on your list to put in the mix thats what made me interested in it...

Id run that at a rate of 8 bags to start with and start with adding 33% concentrate in the lower part of the pot. That should be perfect but if its to cool for some strains you can up the amount of Super to like 50%

Well done research BTW thats how you get good at this stuff.

So I should do 33-50% Amazon Bloom and the rest of the pot Black Gold Coco Blend ?? I'm probably gonna try it out either way cuz I have a gut feeling about it and my gut has never been wrong so I'll report back asap..

Thanks by the way I'm on a mission for the medical community to make the best strains and grow them in the best organic way I can find and you and Jill have been a huge inspiration in that so keep up the great work and Happy Growing bro!

What if I cant find a 7 gallon pot? Could I just use a 5 gallon and veg for a shorter time?

And if weather is cold and you cant let the soil bake in the sun, you say that I can just let the mixed soil sit in a garbage can for a month and then its ready to use?

hey subcool. I've visited your pages a number of times and commented, only under a different name. thanks for all your hard work and sharing. one thing about Soil 101 bothers me.

I am planning to use your super soil in my cabinet. (8" dia x 8" round pots or 1-2 gallon bags. but in your thread you dont suggest the super soil for under 7 gallon pots. I have a lot of experience in there and I don't see why it wouldn't work. it's certainly a superior mix then any commercial soil.

can you please expand on the reason? or an educated guess of smaller pot size and shorter veg time? (perhaps half the ingredients for a less 'hot' mix that would work.) I will be collecting the ingredients soon for a potent organic soil and I would love to start with this excellent soil mix; I just dont have the space for 7 or 10 gallon pots.

I suppose I should read a good organic gardening book and try to extrapolate my own good mix from the information. but you have such great results from yours. thanks again for sharing. please reply if you have the time.

THis method I teach is proven my me and others over a decade.
I am sure it has many applications so experiment and see what ya come up with. I put this how to together based on a system I know works I use the larger pots with amazing results.
When used in smaller pots we ran outa gas to soon and had to water way to often causing many nutrients to be flushed out of the soil.

Hey, thanks for the reply. I guess I have some research to do. This mix is a good start.

Sub

I was thinking of using Gardner & Bloome as a base mix but it has alot of the ingredients of your mix which makes me think it may be too hot for the top. I may need to cut it with top soil or potting soil. What do you think?

Compost ingredients: Composted Red wood, Forest Humus and Bark Fines screened to a uniform 1/4" minus size. The compost is further blended with Chicken Manure, Worm Castings, Bat Guano, gypsum, and Kelp Meal. Oyster shell and Dolomite Limes are added as pH adjusters (pH=6.5) plus mycorrhizae.

It comes in 3 cuft bales. Thx in advance
