I didn't mean hot as in heat I meant hot as in too many nutrients!!!The heat is just the microbial action taking place from the added materials. I find that it is slightly warm for a week or so. But have planted into this without any issues right away as well. I think people are more so concerned about the added amendments becoming available that longer is better. But if you have decent soil that is being reused then there should be enough in there to give what it needs until the rest gets broken down.
But yes aerating and mixing up your soil will aerate it and cool it some temporarily before it heats up again. the whole process is similar to a compost really. the same thing is happening. just on a different scale with different ingredients.
It's about half and half here alot are no till! But alot are rols!Anyone in here actually doing no till or is this not really the place for that. I see a lot of organic soil mixes but its not really what im into.

I don't agree about the higher beings but what I have learned is the organic and no till guys are a lot more willing to help usually a lot less drama! And just over all nicer ppl! I honestly don't even go outside the organic section any more too many ppl are dicks about simple things!I have my technique down just like hanging around like minded people. You know us no tillers are higher beings so its nice to not have to speak with all those lesser growers lol jk

So can anyone answer that ^^^ question for me and by hot I don't mean temperature I mean the soil has too heavy of a mix!Can anyone answer this question for me!
If a soil mix is too hot can you just cook it for an extra month or so to make it less hot? Or will it not change no matter how long you cook?

But I thought that was just as an extra and I didn't really have to use it? Am I missing something???
