Re: Living soil kits
Filled my fabric pots with GHO living soil today OMG that stuff smells amazing, I’d be quite happy to lie in a bath of that stuff, it’s like a 6star all inclusive hotel for plants

Re: Living soil kits
Hello,
So I'm interested in living soil that becomes my own over time.
Now reading thru here I see sml pots are less favourable,
I currently grow in 16ltr pots ,
As moving into a 7ft by 4ft space soon I was hoping to go living soil in larger pots,
What's the smallest size you think I could go ?
I still want some interaction with the soil so doesn't need to be just add water from start to finish , I'm more than happy to top dress and learn to make teas ect.
Any help will be welcomed

Going to have to buy pot by pot at the moment.
Did I read somewhere about a group discount code? .
Would 100g cover crop seed be enough for 1 50ltr pot? 43cmx43cm

Re: Living soil kits
I would think so buddy. probably with some to spare. Cover crop is a between cycle focus. there are great advantages to having them live through out the cycle. but if they are well established before hand and reseeded if they havent self seeded at the end of the cycle. the nutrients they gather are only released once they die and begin breaking down. additionallyTheCloudyChef wrote: ↑Fri Jan 08, 2021 6:39 pmSo I'm definitely interested,GMO wrote:https://www.greenhandorganic.com/a-recipe-for-successTheCloudyChef wrote: ↑Fri Jan 08, 2021 6:20 pmSo after some more research and thinking,

Cover crops also help to prevent erosion and preserve moisture by reducing evaporation and plant water requirements
