Official Gaia Green Grow Method

Loaded question, on initial setup let the dry amendments "cook" for a month before planting/using. mix in about 1/3 of worm castings and/or compost. Need that carbon in there for the "organic" to work. Your fine with just the gaia green, keep it simple. And don't over do it with the wet molasses, stop using it after week 6 of flower. I'd only use it maybe once every two to three weeks. It can fuck up your soils pH if over done. Tablespoon to a gallon. The Mycorrhizae, just use that on initial planting, it will slowly proliferate on it's own. Not the end of the world if you forget to add it but seems to help/speed up growth.
thank you so much, I am truly grateful for the response! is there any environmental conditions I should store the "cooking" mix in i.e. cool and dry?

just keep it room temperature and slightly damp, not wet. Soil is usually good from the bag. I have bags of soil in my garage (that's 108 degrees) and when I grab some of it I'm surprised at the moisture level is still intact! The earthworm castings and/or compost will inoculate the soil with beneficial bacteria. This bacteria will begin to slowly breakdown the dry amendments to a usable nutrient for the plants. That's the cooking process.

Hey guys! Im a relatively new grower, I have maybe 3 small tent grows under my belt, all with nutrients in bottles and foxfarm ocean forest for my soil. I have had relatively good results trying that method but would like to try this organic method to see what kind of difference it makes. I see a lot about premixing soil and amendments, I was just wondering what kind of timeframe id be looking at when preparing it. Would promix hp, gaia amendments, and worm castings be enough for me to do a water only type of grow? or should I also add things like mychrorize, kelp meal, fishbone meal, etc? Also does anyone know if adding wet molasses via watering is any better than or equal to dry molasses being added to the soil initially?
Promix with gaia is a perfect combo.
As stated by week4 let it cook, I let mine sire for 2-4 weeks and it seems good to go. I'm sure the longer the better but a couple of weeks works too.

Do you have any idea if the ACInfinity line of products, plus their controller, are any good? I want to be able to monitor my grow from anywhere and so I plan to include a control system for my lights, fans, etc.
