I’ll be starting another diary soon,
I run a raised bed it’s 1-1 meter x 1.1 meter my last bed done 6 cycles I had to move that so because it was mainly castings and humus by then I used that as the third part of my new mix which is also a 1:1:1 ratio
QUALITY COUNTS HERE!!!!
Castings/compost
Coco(rinse the shit out the coco) /moorland gold peat replacement can’t get decent peat moss here
Aeration I use growstones(recycled glass bottles) basalt and rice hulls(excellent organic matter and silica when breaking down)
I use minimal inputs which are all you need for a balanced soil and you can see the soil reports I’m aiming for online if you wish mate, the idea is to source local and cheap, I use water only with the odd coconut water or aloe Vera water but a main thing I swear by is malted barley.
There’s loads of info in my signature mate good luck!
