    Ive done that and ran into heaps of trouble bud .

    My super soil mixes i had to degrade em down to 25% strenght in bottom 1/3


    But ill say this . Your top 2/3 layer have a light 25% added worm shit and 1 tsp per gal kelp . The bottom 50-50 worm shit to seedling mix and 1tsp per gal kelp and its all ive ever needed .no burn .no needed extra nutes . Mephisto have got to be the fussiest plants for overfertilization tbh

    Dont be go adding no batshit in there . They hate high p and k locks out the magnesium and cal

    So cut my bottom mix with (coco or peat and aeration?) To 25% strength?

    And top just an easy potting mix? 25% castings, then the rest a mix of coco/peat and perlite?

    Yea pretty much Sour .

    Even with Photoperiod . Using these super soils fron the get go can cause trouble . Its best ..for example to use these super soil in the last repot in a bigger pot .
    So lets say your in a 3-4 gal pot with a nice mix .youll Transplant it in a 5- 7 gal pot 2 week before flower .

    With autos i like to repot also in a final pot . Ive seen no diff in yeilds. given the veg phaze has gone smooth .

    Thats what I do. I start them in a mix of 20% casting, 40/40 coco/peat/aeration.

    Once they get they're legs I pot up.

    for those who wonder how to mix all the ingredients for compost, and how to keep the compost dry/wet, here's a tip from me
    I used a compost tumbler Really. Saves time and eases the process.
    Note. It's only worth the money if you're doing much. I mean 'one seasone grow' isnt gonna pay it off.

    As a backyard grower, I found it pretty neat
    cheers
