Recipe for organic soil need opinions
Got this recipe from Google ai for an organic soil with the amendments i have this will be my 2nd time growing what do yall think about it.
Here is the complete, comprehensive schedule tailored specifically for Strategy A in your 5-gallon pots.
By clarifying that you are using Trifecta Myco Supreme (Mycorrhizal Fungi), we can fully optimize the schedule. Unlike general mycorrhizae, Trifecta Myco Supreme is unique because it easily suspends in water. This allows you to apply it not just during transplanting, but also through follow-up liquid drenches to ensure the root system stays colonized as it grows. [1, 2, 3, 4]
------------------------------
## Phase 1: Soil Preparation & Transplant (Day 0)## 1. The Soil Build (Mix 3–5 Days Before Transplanting)
Mix this thoroughly to fill one 5-gallon pot:
*
* Base Soil: 4 Gallons
* Worm Castings: 1 Gallon
* Dr. Earth Home Grown: ¾ cup
* Oyster Shell Flour: 3 tablespoons
* Langbeinite: 1 ½ tablespoons
* Glacial Rock Dust: 5 tablespoons
* Kelp Meal: 1 ½ tablespoons
*
## 2. The Transplant Step
*
* Dry Inoculation: Dig your transplant hole in the 5-gallon pot. Sprinkle 1 teaspoon of dry Trifecta Myco Supreme powder directly into the bottom and sides of the hole. Gently dust another 1 teaspoon right onto the wet root ball of your seedling. [2, 5]
* First Water-In: Mix 5 mL of Fish Sh!t into 1 gallon of dechlorinated water (pH 6.2–6.5). Gently water the pot until the soil is evenly moist to eliminate air pockets and wake up the microbial life.
*
------------------------------
## Phase 2: The Vegetative Stage (Weeks 1 to 4)
*
* Watering Volume: Give roughly 2 to 4 cups of water per pot (5% to 10% of the pot volume) per feed. Never let living soil dry out completely, but don't leave it muddy.
* Frequency: Roughly every 2 to 3 days, depending on your room's environment.
*
## Week 1: Root Establishment
*
* Watering 1: Plain, dechlorinated water (pH 6.3–6.5).
* Watering 2 (Microbe Booster): Water with 3 mL/gallon Fish Sh!t.
* Foliar Spray (Optional): Once this week, right after lights turn off, spray leaves with a very dilute Kelp/Water mix (1/4 tsp kelp meal steeped in warm water and strained) to boost branching. [6]
*
## Week 2: Myco Re-Up & Veg Acceleration
*
* Watering 1 (Liquid Myco Drench): Stir 1 teaspoon of Trifecta Myco Supreme thoroughly into 1 gallon of water. Pour it directly around the base of the plant to push a secondary wave of fungal spores straight to the expanding root zone.
* Watering 2: Water with 3 mL/gallon Fish Sh!t. [2]
*
## Week 3: Canopy Expansion & Compost Tea
*
* Watering 1 (Veg Compost Tea): Steep 1 cup worm castings, 1 tbsp kelp meal, and 1 tbsp molasses in a gallon of water with an air bubbler for 24 hours. Strain and water directly into the soil to supercharge the bacteria.
* Watering 2: Plain water.
* Watering 3: 5 mL/gallon Fish Sh!t.
*
## Week 4: Final Veg & Training
*
* Watering 1: Plain water.
* Watering 2 (Liquid Myco Drench): Stir 1 teaspoon of Trifecta Myco Supreme into a gallon of water and drench. (Mycorrhizae benefit from re-application every 2–3 weeks early in a plant's life). [2, 7]
*
------------------------------
## Phase 3: The Transition Phase (Weeks 5 to 6)
Plants will drastically increase water consumption during the vegetative "stretch" phase.
## Week 5: The Pre-Flower Top-Dress (10–14 Days Before 12/12 Light Flip)
*
* The Feeding: Top-dress the surface of your 5-gallon pot with ⅓ cup [BuildASoil Craft Blend](https://buildasoil.com/products/buildasoil-craft-blend) mixed into 2 cups of fresh worm castings. Scratch it gently into the top inch of soil.
* Watering 1 (The Activator): Water directly over the top-dress with 6 mL/gallon Fish Sh!t to instantly break down the Craft Blend.
* Watering 2: Plain water.
*
## Week 6: The Light Flip (Switch to 12/12)
*
* Watering 1: Plain water.
* Watering 2: 6 mL/gallon Fish Sh!t.
*
------------------------------
## Phase 4: The Flowering Stage (Weeks 7 to 12+)## Week 7 (Flower Week 1): The Flower Top-Dress
*
* The Feeding: Top-dress each pot with ½ cup Dr. Earth Flower Girl mixed with 1 cup of fresh worm castings to supply the heavy phosphorus needed for bud stacking.
* Watering 1: Water over the top-dress with 6 mL/gallon Fish Sh!t.
* Watering 2: Plain water.
* Stop all foliar spraying completely once actual puff-ball buds begin to form to prevent mold.
*
## Week 8 (Flower Week 2): Bud Stacking
*
* Watering 1: Plain water.
* Watering 2: 6 mL/gallon Fish Sh!t.
*
## Week 9 (Flower Week 3): Peak Bloom Boost
*
* Watering 1 (Bloom Nutrient Tea): Bubble 1 cup worm castings, 2 tablespoons of BuildASoil Craft Blend, and 1 tablespoon of molasses in a bucket of water with an air bubbler for 24 hours. Pour directly into the soil. This provides a massive hit of mid-flower potassium and trace volcanic minerals.
* Watering 2: Plain water.
*
## Week 10 (Flower Week 4): Swelling
*
* Watering 1: Plain water.
* Watering 2: 6 mL/gallon Fish Sh!t. [8]
*
## Weeks 11 & 12 (Flower Weeks 5 & 6 to Harvest): The Ripening Cleanse
*
* Watering: Stop adding all nutrients, teas, and microbes. Water with plain, dechlorinated water only.
* Why: This allows the cannabis plant to finish consuming all the remaining nutrients locked inside the living soil ecosystem, naturally fading the fan leaves and ensuring clean, white-burning ash and pure terpene expression.
