Ohsogreen and other organic growers, et alia, I've got myself some cubic feet of the following soil (you have to scroll): Gardener & Bloome potting soil. It's also a soil amendment, which is nice, that tells me it's rich, but I'm wondering if it's too rich for the plant I'm growing. I also have 20qts. worm castings, along with 8qts. vermiculite (I switched when I read the bag of perlite, it's got the damned Miracle Gro ferts added to it! I don't want that unless I ASK for it! )(I hate that, not being able to make a choice).
Anyway.. where am I.. ok, I've got 4cu.ft of the potting soil, and a hell of a lot of not so good quality soil and five plants that must be planted very soonly, eight others soon enough. Most of the pots are 3gals. (I have space constraints, see my gallery to see my garden.) I have on hand Dr. Earth Organic 5 (again, scroll the window on the right) as well as a quart of liquid seaweed extract that smells tasty. Like sushi tasty. (Sorry, I love sushi, and the mermaid in me loves it as well..)
Considering what's already in the soil, what would you add, if anything?
