So I run earth juice (not a tea, just mixed into water) in a soiless medium (sunshine#4). My plants absolutely love it. But I've been curious, does a soiless medium still support all the life needed to complete the organic process? The answer clearly has to be yes, because the plants do extremely well.
Any info on this process when using a soiless peat based medium would be much appreciated. Because from what I understand my sunshine mix is a quasi hydro medium, but reacts a lot like soil.

One thing that has really paid off for me is adding my soil amendments like blood, bone, kelp, cotton seed, greensand and rock dust directly to my compost. This tends to make a pretty hot mix though. I run three composts at my home. One pile is composting manure (chicken, horse, goat, sheep, cow & rabbit) that I gather from my animals. One pile is chopped yard trimmings (grass clippings, screened 1/8" minus whole tree mulch, fall leaves, immature weeds, wood ash and green garden trimmings). The last is a compost tumbler used for 100% kitchen waste. I bulk up the kitchen waste with cottonseed hulls and add the amendments to this compost. This is also the compost I make all of my compost teas with as it's the most rich
