Well if you start composting you will be ready to go in a month. Otherwise use some cow manure but again you need to let it cook for at least a month otherwise it will burn everything you put in there. I use pure CaCO3 to buffer pH and add extra Ca, sea weed, a little epsom, coffee grounds, cow manure ( dried pellets ). Those pellets work as slow release nutes and last through entire grow. You could also use any other shit you find around, anything that feeds of grass will do for high N, banana peels for high K, chicken shit, since your near coast, seagull shit works wonders and is being sold as gold.

The guy is a walking bible of organic growing. Mad respect.



ACT - areated compost tea


What it does is it brings great ammount of beneficial microorganisms into soil which help feeding plants and you also add great ammount of minerals. Areated because we don't want to feed our soil anaerobic microorganisms.

Hmm i was reading a thread where toaster said never ever use water only i think he was arguing with that manc guy when he said he likes to flush every now and then to stop salts build up which does make sense to me but im also fairly new to this i might have missed something
