RE: Organic Workshop: Making Italian Style High Brix Soil
There is raw material for soil everywhere if you are smart & crafty. I have tried running wild dirt (with added aeration & a wee bit of cheap organic amendments) next to a very premium organic water only soil & the wild dirt performed better. Probably because it was outdoor & the wild dirt was full of life that had already been adapting and thriving.
I’d like to see some pictures of your Italian nettles, they grow ten feet tall in my yard if I don’t cut them down. Prime Nettle growing country
And I'm not really surprised! A lot of these potting mixes are not apt for growing cannabis. And 95% of them have the same base: sphagnum peat. And most of them don't have the right biology for any plant to grow. The nettles, man! THE NETTLES! When they are ready to harvest I make a delicious tea, which is a staple in my grows. It's basically all you need in veg!
The place I get my dirt, was started by an old school 2nd generation hippy farmer type. His son went and got himself & PhD in organics & they make the best dirt in the state as far as I have seen. Even better, they’re 3 minutes from my house 😃
I’d love to see your Nettle tea recipe
