Here's the Recipe. Gonna' use the small batch portions.

Subcool’s Super Soil Recipe Improved, Large Batch :

  • 8 ten gallon bags of high quality Organic Potting Soil Such as “Roots Organic Soil”
  • 25 – 50 pounds of Organic Earthworm Castings
  • 5 pounds of Blood Meal (12-0-0)
  • 5 pounds of Bloom Bat Guano ( 0-5-0)
  • 5 pounds Fish Bone Meal ( 3-16-0)
  • 3 pounds Rock Phosphate (0-3-0)
  • 3/4 cup Epsom Salt
  • 1 cup Dolomite Lime
  • 1/2 cup Azomite
  • 2 table spoons (Tbs.) powdered Humic Acid
Subcool’s Super Soil Recipe Improved, Small Batch :

  • 1 ten gallon bag of high quality Organic Potting Soil Such as “Roots Organic Soil”
  • 3 to 6 pounds of Organic Earthworm Castings (1 lb. of casting = about 1 gal.)
  • 10 ounces of Blood Meal ( 10 oz. of blood meal = about 1 & 1/2 cups)
  • 10 ounces of Bloom Bat Guano ( 10 oz. of guano = about 1 cup)
  • 10 ounces Fish Bone Meal ( 10 oz. of bone meal = about 1 cup)
  • 6 ounces Rock Phosphate
  • 1&1/2 tablespoons Epsom Salt (magnesium sulfate)
  • 2 tablespoons or 1 oz. (liquid measure)of Dolomite Lime
  • 1 tablespoons or 1/2 oz. (liquid measure) of Azomite (trace elements)
  • 1 teaspoon of powdered Humic Acid
Also, I fond Humic Acid but in granulated form. is this ok? or should i really use powdered? What about rock phosphate 0-3-0? How does that usually come, the main hydro stores around me didnt carry it, nor did Hope Depot.

Found it on Amazon by Espoma.

This the same brand i bought my Dolomite Lime in. They are round pellets, the size of peppercorn or bibi gun pellets.

The "pellets" are just powdered products stuck together with "binders" for easier application. As soon as they'r emoistened, they start to break up.

Use them just as you would the powder.

Not sure how this is a question about bat guano...

I've had a few good harvests using Subcool's mix, but I felt it was very wasteful to mix up a batch from scratch each round (even though I reused the soil outdoors for tomatoes). These days I recycle and reuse all my soil.
