Off the hop, being new, thinking i didnt need much, not researching enough but i did build some sort of shitty organic soil lol. the very first mix i made which did sit for only about 2 weeks. it was promix organic soil, perlite, vermiculite, de, epsom salt, that organic granular slow release feed, kelp meal, and i watered it in with some molasses water in 2 garbage cans and covered them. Trying to remember if i did anything else or not, in the beginning my notes were vague compared to now. I did not know where to go at first and it was during covid so was looking at garden centers and such, took me a but to find a local hydro store. thought was the soil and added stuff would get me through most of it and id pick up what i could find as i went. That is why the fish emulsion came up first cause i could get it easily. Now I have what i needed in the beginning or most of and have been playing catch up which may or may not led to over doing something
