Yeah Ive got Rice hulls on my list, Ive no clue how this all works but it looks like fun. I am struggling to find which malted barley I need, Basalt is a big problem sourcing lol and Im unsure where to find the wild neem. Really unsure on peat ?? And Ive got worm castings on the list, can I use half worm castings half compost and then peat and aeration ?

No rush mate, maybe chat later when you get time to chill out mate. Thanks Redz

Easy brother
Ok I’ll move to the barley after!
As for the neem just search the natural gardener neem oil on google and the shop will come up you’ll get your neem meal and oil there
You’ll get the glacial rockdust on eBay about ?16 20 kilos
I got the basalt from a aggragate place where they sell all types of stones they use for flooring etc!
You can use whatever you think has the best qualities mate ideally a finished compost that’s gone through the worn bin but then that would be perfect.
But yes mate that would be fine
Peace brother

Use the cheapest malted barley you can get. It's cheap at a brew shop. Look for 2row or pilsen or whatever is on sale. Base malts are cheap (they'll know what you're talking about at the brew shop)

I'm personally not concerned with the heavy metals in azomite as its locked in and my understanding it will not leech into your plants. I use glacial rock dust but any rock dust should work fine. It's my first go now with this and cannabis but it works wonders for my veggies.

Yes you can mix the castings and compost. The great thing is all of these mixes will work theres more than one way to skin a cat.

I wouldn’t mind the azomite in the herb garden but certainly not in my medicinal garden that’s for sure, and as for the malted barley you are right strictly speaking but if we want to go all out we want the malt with the highest diastatic number.
I just use Morris otter extra pale/light malt
Always make sure you get uncrushed and blend it as you use it the problem is every time humidity hits it it loses some of its benefits in some way!
Never used spelt malt either.

Ive sourced everything now, thanks BG and Redz, as soon.as money allows Ill get shopping.

Only thing I dont understand is what exactly I need to get as a peat alternative ?

You can use coco in lieu of peat.

I shouldn't smell at all either.

Nit really or I don’t think so but I love the smell of good soil anything that smells bad generally is bad!

@the organic gardening catalogue (all one word) you can get comfrey pellets there too
You can use coco just rinse the shit out of it but I like the feel of this shit for some reason
A pleasure bro
