Well all I can do is add another bag of soil and see what happens u live and learn by trial and errors my men and this is my own off the fly recipe because if 8 bags calls for 5lbs I just cut it in half!!! JB

Yeah that does seem like a lot of alfalfa. in sub's most recent recipe he threw in only 2 cups of alfalfa meal for a full batch. im also pretty sure that alfalfa is not as time released as some of the other amendments, ie it is available to your plants a lot faster so it may induce burn. there are lots of threads relating to sub's supersoil and modified versions with the creators experiences so i would recommend reading those through in their entirety. good luck with everything though!

I am in the process of getting all ingredients for super soil.I have Mycorhizal fungi,but not sure when to add it.
It says on the bag to sprinkle in the bottom of the planting hole,but i`m sure ive read in this thread to add it to
the mix to cook. Will this stuff start growing in the mix when cooking,and get damaged when turning soil over
to aeriate it,or does it not matter bout that?

If anyone's interested in a better soil with much better cost savings MIX YOUR OWN. Then RECYCLE IT. Throwing away dirt is not necessary.

Base Soil

1/3 Sphagnum Peat from Premier Peat or Alaska Peat
1/3 Aeration material (pumice and lava rock)
1/3 EWC

Per Cubic Foot of the Base Soil:

3 cup Charcoal (activated)
4 cups Rock Powders (4X Glacial, 1X Bentonite, 1X Oyster Shell, 1X Basalt)

1/2 Cup Neem Meal (2 g / L)
1/2 Cup Crab Shell Meal
2 Cups Kelp Meal
2 Cups Fish Meal
2 Cups Fish Bone Meal
1 Cup Sul-Po-Mag
1/2 Cup Alfalfa

1/2 cup this 3 part lime mix:

1 part powdered dolomite lime
1 part agricultural gypsum
2 parts powdered oyster shell


1 cubic foot = 7.5 gallons.

Moisten with Fresh Aloe (2 Tbs Juice with 1 gallon water) and Accelerant Tea (Comfrey, Yarrow, Horsetail or Nettle)

I pre-inoculate with BTI and Nematodes.

That!

I won't comment on what soil mix is best (because I don't know), but I do know that recycling your soil is key. It gets better in subsequent runs.

It's amazing how the soil gets better. Guys like Gascanastan get 12+ cycles from soil. Insane grows, that man.

I'm starting round 4 for rols pretty soon... just topdressed pots last week with compost and ewc watered twice so far with teas. Probably another week or 2 til roots are broken down and ready to be transplanted into. Recycling soil. Lowers the amount of work. No need for stock piling soil mixes. Plants love the recycled soil much more than new soil.....

"Real Organic Living Soil" Basically a planned no-till. No dumping and re-mixing. Instead, add amendments like worm compost as the plant grows, keeping the nutrient levels sufficient for the next plant.

You leave the complex microbe web in tact by not dumping. Take advantage of that when the next plant is plopped in, hopefully immediately after chop. The web will sense the new roots, plug in, and use the old root system as food, rapidly and actively decomposing and storing.
