Have Organic Potting Mix Want To Make It Better By Adding Really Kick ass Ingredients

[Broxy]

Hi, I want to make my potting mix into super stuff. What could I add to it. Like mushroom compost, worm castings, etc and ratios. Potting mix I have is below. Plants are 400 - 500mm high now and going into 48 litre air pots in about a week.

Daltons Organic Potting Mix is manufactured using the finest quality BioGro certified products, including natural and composted materials. NuFert and pumice are added to create a desirable physical structure with excellent air porosity, water holding capacity and water distribution.

• Safe to use in all garden situations.
• Suitable for indoor and outdoor growing in pots and containers.
• Full supply of composted organic nutrients
• Includes NuFert - A BioGro certified slow release fertiliser produced by infusing nutrients into Zeolite granules. Plant roots then extract these nutrients, resulting in a more efficient uptake and stronger long term growth.
• Includes Bioinoculant Granules - Chemical-free friendly fungus for natural disease suppression and healthier plants.

Benefits include:

• ZEOLITE NUTRIENT SPONGE for continuous feeding
• BIOINOCULANT GRANULES for plant health
• ORGANIC NUTRIENTS for fruiting and flowering
• TRACE ELEMENTS for root development and growth

Sounds yummy! If you do this, take care with any nutrients you use. They may be superfluous and result in nutrient burn.

Since Christ was a corporal, I've amended with Growin Green, then top dressed throughout grow and water only until week 7,
when I supplement with Hasta Gro Plant. Zero defects or deficiencies and cannot, will not burn. I use this regimen for cannabis,
fruits, vegetables, plants and shrubs. Organic soil auto grower. K.I.S.S.

I cringe whenever I see the words "Time Released Nutrients". I tried going all mad scientist with nutrients a couple times and the end result was always cooked plants. My suggestion would be to use the Frankenstein soil on one plant and observe the results. Over abundance can lead to other issues as well, like nutrient lockout. No sense in putting all your beans in one basket. I think there is a threshold of how much a plant can flourish from nutrients alone. I admire your zeal for growing but if there was a magic bullet out there we'd all be using it.

I would check out buildasoil.com and or Clackamas Coot at https://clackamascoots.com/blogs/news/coots-soil-recipe-coots-nutes
or there are a few places to get premixed products that you just add xx amount of the mix per gallon of soil. This is how I do it to avoid having 20 different bags of stuff to store. I get mine from thegreensunshineco.com but kisorganics.com has a good mix plus a few others I can't get out of this damn old brain right now lol I'm sure it wouldn't be to hard to find em with a search
