    Do you let your soil 'cook' or are you mixing and using straight away?

    I agree with redisiel, mostly because a lot of the listed ingredients are very hard to find where I live but I do really appreciate the time and effort you put into sharing all this with us and putting all those breakdowns for smaller volumes up

    I use it pretty much straight away mate and on another note I wouldn’t be putting any salts in my soils,
    if you do a bit more reading you’ll see there’s no need for all them additives, also you’ll find a lot of unwanted elements in your canna, azomite has high amounts of heavy metals, bat guano is unsustainable and contains certain things I don’t like but good luck with it mate

    So you add no nutes once the grow is underway?

    That is correct yes, the idea with super soil is that you have all the nutrients in the soil already and the plant takes as required, the soil comes alive and the plant literally tells it what it wants through the root system.
    You can add sucanat on day 30 and 45 for an extra boost but you can just run super soil from veg to finish

    If you find plants yellowing early, you can top dress with super soil

    Im going to try filling a pot half way with an amended mix, and the top half a potting mix to see how it goes with an auto. That's mephistos suggestion. I'll be a guinea pig
