Do you reuse your soil? What fertilizer and/or amendments do you add into it?
I use Down to earth bio fish and azomite. 2 cycles then it goes into my raised beds never had a issue. Thx.
Dr Earth tomato fertilizer and worm 🐛 casting
No til living soil. Build a soil craft blend and alfalfa meal, kelp meal for teas
Rice hulls are great for aeration and when they break down it’ll release silica into the soil.
I always reuse soil... let rest old soil for 1 month until it's dry (I leave it outside to get some IMO and bugs working on it) .... after that, I discard the soil that is around main roots and add 1/3 of silage (pickled grass), some lime powder to reduce acidity and water until saturation (all it can handle without getting mud)... and I use wooden fruit baskets (bushels) as pots... 1gr/W with a Viparspectra V450 and a MarsHydro 96 (400w total does 400gr of nuggets in a 3x3 tent)... lamps are very bad but it is what I have.... I don't use fans or special nutrients... my "nuts" are normal agriculture foliar nutrients applied on soil, one for grow (more N) and other for flowering (more PK)... I keep my process as simple (and cheap) as possible...
I am doing this for 6yrs, 15 batches without any problems or diseases...
This is not a recipe to follow... it is just a different (simple) approach...
I reuse my soil when i dump it in the outdoor vegetable garden... works great with the compost by the way I used your SF discount code today and saved $20 on my order thanks my friend!
We appreciate your work in the industry your extremely professional and very informative. God bless you and yours
It was an honor and privilege to meet you at the Redman and Methodman concert/after party. I greatly appreciate all the education. It has helped change the trajectory of my life. Thank you so much 🙏🏼 God bless.
Yo man it was really cool to meet you! Thanks for your positive words. That show was awesome! We actually went indoor skydiving with Redman the next night lol
Damn that’s dope! I got to meet him the night before at the Dice Mixer. Super cool dude.
Awesome video Mr. Grow It💯Yes I reuse my soil I’ve got a whole series on it👍 I use homemade worm castings cow manure that I get off my farm and also my homemade potash💯🌱🌳💪. We’ve been doing this on the farm for 30 years works great folks👍😎✌️💚
when re-using my old soil i have been adding my home made compost to old soils from the year before and then keeping the mix in 27 gal covered containers that i moisten and leave in the dark for weeks , sometimes months . sometimes i will add manure to the mix when i put it into pots along with perlite and have recently been using worm castings as well at about a 1/5 ratio . i rarely use any nutrients during veg if at all and mostly concentrate on nutrients during flower at low concentration. so far , so good.
Seems a lot of job to save 20-30$ per pot every year...
Currently running Buildasoil on a no till style grow, I top dress my amendments and do compost teas. Great video as always!
I have never thrown any soil out, going on about 2 years indoor now(base is fox farm). I let them dry out, take them out side and shuck as much of the roots as i can out. Then i put 4-4-4 fert in it and mix it well, lightly water and let sit for a month or two with very light sprays of water every two weeks or so. Get a bag of perlite and worm castings to mix in and you have yourself some potent soil for the next run, for the first 5-6 weeks anyway.
I run no till and leave the roots in. The roots break down create food for microbes and create air channels. Also the network of fungi is attached to those roots. You wait so long to establish that network and when you plant back in the new plant can connect and hook up to that existing fungal network very quickly. I know dumping reamending is destroying a lot of that network anyways which I'd never do but if i were you id try to keep more of the roots in there. They are good food for the microbes and break down into nutrients for the plant eventually
@@mopar426power how many grows could i get in a 3 gallon without removing roots??
@@jetlifebih7853 3 gallons i wouldn't do no till. Thats way to small of a pot. With organics think of the soil as a battery. The bigger the pot the bigger the battery. I run 20 and 30 gallona and im on almost done with my 4th run and have had absolutely 0 deficiencies or problems. Running organics in small pots is possible but it's a lot harder keeping up on the watering, nutrients and keeping the biology happy. Best advice i can give you is go as big of a pot as you can. 10 gal minimum
@@mopar426power my 7 gallon cloth pots seem fine for living soil but you have to top dress a few times with gaia or whatever. Seems to work
@@cannafarmer Of course. You can really make anything work. It's about how much extra effort you are willing to put in. Since I've switched to bigger pots life is so much easier and the plant health has been incredible. That extra soil really does give you a very good buffer. Only thing you have to be careful about with big pots is overwatering. Once you get the watering down its just coasting. After i harvest I reamend the pots, transplant when they outgrow the 1 gals i start in and do one top dress a cpl days to a week before flower. If plants are big i may add a little more top dress around week 3 but thats it besides some supplements like my homemade fermented plant extracts or coconut water.
One thing I add is diatomaceous earth. About 1 cup for 10 gallons. It lightens the soil, helps make it less desirable to fungus gnats. It also breaks down into silica. That breakdiwn takes time but helps in future grows. I also like some wood ashes. That adds not only potassium but all the micronutrients that end up getting taken out of the soil over time. Careful! Ashes are very high pH.
Do you wet the soil down like he did because I thought soon as you diatomaceous earth wet it's no longer any good
@@Jason-rv3kpWhen diatomaceous earth gets wet, it becomes inactive. Once it dries, it becomes active once again.
It can also kill microbs in your soil as well not the best idea just get silica I know it's a form but the tiny crushed shells are death for lots of creatures small n big
Dude thank you for all you do. The consistency and the info has been and will be amazing. Good work man
Love your channel your sub count is no measure of how valuable your info is
That’s so cool you can test your soil !!!
I really appreciate this video. I'd love seeing this channel do a day-by-day time-lapse of some Feminized Photoperiods. I like how you cover the details and being this is my first Grow, I've looked at atleast 100 different videos over a few months on multiple different styles and etc. You really have a great platform here and I hope it keeps going smoothly for you.
Welcome to your new community! 😅 Yea, I think we all got that first grow play list somewhere on here. 🍃😶🌫️
I have Re-used my soil/ coco Numerous times I almost feel as if it gets richer and better over time of re using it !! Great info Chris aka Mr.Grow It !!
I do the same thing I think the little roots decompose and becomes compost
As always Chris. Great info. Thanks
I love this video bro awesome I've been reusing my soil since I've started 4 years ago and it's been amazing every time it gets better and better and better great job Chris love your work man you're awesome
Also I do it the same way u do but I add in roots organic uprising foundation and then just mix in recommended amout for what soil I'm renewing then I mix worm castings and bontanicare organicare grow nutrients and a little xtreme gardenings Mykos pure mycorrhizal inoculant then I cook for 2 weeks to 3 weeks depending on schedule great video again Chris much love bro stay lifted my friend!
good demonstration Chris , i have re used my soil & re-amended with a blend of 4-4-4, worm castings & perlite similar to you . but have had bug issues recently & little space so have been using new soil & donating my old soil to a friend with a big outdoor garden
I definitely appreciate no till. However it doesn't seem like it would make a big difference when growing in smaller containers, like 5-10 gal. Reusing and mixing in my own inputs, just as you did in the video has given me great results. And I am of the mind, if it isn't broke, don't fix it.
One thing I don't do is let it "cook."
It already takes a few weeks for the root system to begin to use any of those amendments. So I just throw it in my pots, add a few inches of seedling mix on top and in the middle, and chuck in my beans.
Thanks for the video.
I’m actually on my first run using reused soil. And I pretty did the same think you did except I didn’t even let my soil cook at all lol I just picked out all the large root balls, re amend 50/50 blend of 4-4-4 and 3-8-4 of Dr Earth dry amendments and worm castings. Repotted and watered with black strap molasses, liquid seaweed and fish sh!t. Compared to my other plantas which are not using re amendmended soil for control purposes, they are looking super healthy no deficiency yet. Going into week cinco of 🌺 and they are looking awesome!! Thank you for all that you do Señor Grow it!!!
I actually use your method, minus the worm castings, and I also get awesome results. But, after watching this video (great job Chris), and reading your comment, I think that on my next soil amendment I will be adding worm castings.
@@charlesn.2720 nice my only question is can I reuse soil using this method over and over again like as long as I grow? I’m assuming since we are using organic input we should be able but at what point should I get the soil tested? Just a question I’m super new to reusing soil this is my first time
@@YoelMena1738 as long as you keep replenishing the soil with organic matter (and keeping an eye on your plant for deficiencies or needs), there really isn't a need or timetable to have it tested. I'm currently on 3+ years of the same soil (but, it's always kinda fun to have it done if you're curious and have the extra cash) I just reammend with compost/worm castings and some other dry amendments and all my plants (including veggies + fruits, culinary herbs etc) thrive.
What size container(s) are you using?
@@FreeRangeRoss I use 5 gallons fabric pots.
@@YoelMena1738 same. This is what i've been doing for pepper and tomato plants for quite a few runs/generations now with no issue. Only time I do get rid of the soil is if there is some major disease...
Some great points so far, to which I’d like to add: there’s this stuff called Liquid Soil which I’ve started using in the past year, and it’s pretty neat.
It’s made by TPS Nutrients to which I have no connection whatsoever and as far as I understand it’s got three components which work synergistically: The first is a flushing agent which binds to the ionic salts, the second is a microbial inoculation to revive the rhizosphere, and the third is an enzyme to help digest the old dead roots into a source of carbohydrates. I run about 2 to 3 gallons of the solution to each gallon of soil and let it sit for a couple of days and then mix in amendments such as worm castings, rock dust and guanos for the next season. I’m also a big fan of Hygrozyme which is wonderful addition to any regimen. Together, they’ve gone a long way towards correcting mystery micronutrient deficiencies and pH drift issues due to leftover salts and/or unprocessed dead matter in my soil.
Cheers, and I hope this helps!
Super interesting. Can the enzymes that are used to digest the old roots eventually become a problem to the new roots of the next plant?
Good episode, have been wanting to re-use my soil but was a bit concerned about it
Thanks for all the info ! I empty bags. Add 3 gal used soil 1 gal coco coir, 1 gal my compost (could replace with 1 gal used soil)10-15 lbs worm castings, 1 gal peat moss, 1 gal perlite, 10 tbs seabird guano, (I usually use bat guano 0-5-0 16 tbs but all I could find at the time was the seabird guano 0-11-0. Dolomite lime as need for PH and Cal- mag. I fill bag with what is close to subcool's super soil 1/2 way then this soil the 2nd (top) half. Great smoke just a little behind on yield. MAKES 7-8 gal of soil.
Seems a lot of job to save 20-30$ per pot every year...Ridiculous and cheap! I pay only 40 CAD for each 107-liter bag...
I never throw my soil out, I pretty much do a simple blend like yours Chris except🎉 I add a neem meal, humic acid and crustacean meal. Love your show and much thanks for what you do for the community.
Can I do this on a smaller scale with a plastic storage box? Just mix it regularly for air?
Yeah I pore mine onto a plastic sheet/ bag remove any big roots add anything I need let it sit for a few hours then repot seed in and back into tent 😂 zero problems
I will be looking back at this video soon Thanks it’s a pain to get bags of soil at my location without unwanted attention.
It's not for me...I get Greenworld 420 mix for 40$ CAD per 107-liter bag mixed with Pro Mix HP (107-l, same pricing)
I was just talking to someone about this on the forum. Never understood why people toss out soil unless they have pests and don't want to compost it first. I was using a concrete mixer before my switch. Makes for a very easy process.
Damn mr grow it this right on time, I just started reusing my soil on god. Been loving it
G'day Mr Grow it from Australia. Love the show! A good handful of rooster booster, 2 heaped tbsp of fish powder, tbspoon dolomite lime, 2 cups of worm castings and half of cup of Dr greenthumbs bloom. Then enough perlite for the right consistency and some peat if I need to lower the ph. Then I add my 11 secret herbs and spices. This is my re amendment for a 5 gal and it works a treat.
Great video thanx for the lesson on reusing my soil
Great video. I'm learning alot from these videos.
Keep it up.
Thanks, will do!
BANGER
This is my first time reusing my soil. I have coast of maine Stonington blend. I will be adding gaia green all purpose and bloom, mykos, worm castings, lobster compost, basalt rock dust (for calcium), glacial rock dust and mineralized phosphate. Fingers crossed and hope for the best.
Better just purchase new bags at this point...
Great episode. Up with sustainability!
Could I use the same compost I use in my garden for my grow?
Any of my old indoor soil goes directly into my compost bin & I use for my outdoor plants which always tend to need far more soil than indoor plants anyway 😁
Do you clean up the soil before adding it to your outdoor plants ?
I just started doing this and saves me soil that is still in good condition. Saves me money. I flush my soil first then dry it. I take most of the roots. For re-amending, i use gaia green organics and mykos. Cook for a week then I use it. I use the soil within a week.
I recently dumped my old soil on one half of my worm bin in the basement. How long should I keep it in there? I’m ready for a new grow
I use bottled nutes can I still reuse ?
I love this!!! Better to re use cause soil is soil it just depends on how much NPK and microbs are there
Very amazing video keep growing
Yes thank you!! I always thought it was ridiculous to do that
Hey CMrG..... I bot a used wheel barrow that .................... 1:07 to 1:40 ...................................... PERFECTLY holds 20 gals +, and it is a LOT easier if you have the place. ...................... Also 71/2 gal. rectangular waste baskets [as opposed to [2] two 4 gal rounds] gave me THREE TIMES THE SOIL for my small grow space. And a MUCH BETTER QUALITY......
The roots from the previous plants are okay to leave in it ?
Love the insightful video as always
I'm new here just watching to due a better job!!
I have a giant plastic tub that holds used promix after harvest I take root ball out and re amend with worm castings.
I just add my old soil back into a organic compost pile. Add amendments and use it again next year.
Never thrown out soil. I've re used it for my outdoor garden or just mix and re amend like in the video. Cheers brotha! 👍
Really need some help here so my last run it seems like i got tobacco mosaic virus maybe?? or something like that that sould i toss all my soil and pots? Online it says it will go away outdoors after a year or two
Thanks for sharing this information 💚
Is it completely necessary to let it cook or can I just amend, plant, and water as necessary?
Is cooking necessary since your amendments dont look hot ie didnt see bone meal or manure
organic perlite? How does that differentiate itself from regular perlite?
Tryna figure that one out now. Right On
I had a fungus gnat issue on my last grow. I have a black rotating compost bin I’m going to dump it in as an experiment to see if the summer sun heat will kill off the little menace. If it works out, I’ll amend it, gets some bio back in and rerun it.
Question when you hydrate your used soil do you PH your water?
Ph is important to the microbes, too. My tap water is 6.5 but it should be aerated to encourage the chlorine to leave. I innoculate the soil with Recharge.
great content once again my friend
Love the upload Mr. Grow it 👌❤️
I like to use my runoff from my flush before big chop to help moisten and reammend soil for next grow.
Are you looking for a certain temp range when doing this?
I cut 1 pulled out the stem root ball planted next one and off again . Leeched not flushed . Worked for about 6 runs and i only changed because i got new genetics .
10 and 15 gallon pots for final size ,i dump my soil into large totes and re amend i use 30% worm castings and GAIA GREEN 4-4-4 AND BLOOM AND ROCK DUST AND RICE HULLS
Better just purchase new bags at this point...
What kind of straw should I buy ?
So do you add perlite and worm castings every time you re-use the same soil? Does perlite disintegrate or something after each grow?
I've been recycling my soil for about two years almost three now. I use three different Rubbermaid totes I tend to use blood meal, bone meal, earthworm casting, Gai green 4-4-4. Sometimes fox farms marine cuisine 10-7-7 and mycorrhizal in my starter soil. Flowering soil the same, accept I changed the Gai green to the 2-8-4 and I add little potash. This last grow I got a major deficiency going on watching this video. I'm might have to find my closet soil tester and see what I really need.
Luckily, there's no stigma attached to being a soil tester these days.
Thanks for adding to this conversation of soil conservation … there ARE so many ways! I think your technique shown is a wonderful intro to folks used to throwing soil away. I have started on my second living soil / low-till pot; it’s currently growing some clover and alfalfa while it waits for the winning clone to arrive.
Been going on year 7 of reusing my soil. I do add worm castings and compost along with pro mix and bumper crop every other year I’ll dump it in mortar tub and mix in new soil and shrimp meal and crab meal. Along with some rose and flower mix from down to earth. Along with 1 oZ of myco. Let sit in 0pots for 10 days or more to cook and the plants get better and better. The soil get fermented fruit and plant juice 1 x a week and some microbial boost ie mikrobs or recharge 1-2 x a month and alway after I top dress with shrimp and crab meal in early flower after that it just ferments and molasses water. Last summer I only feed. My plants 1 time in early august and they were ripe and beautifully faded by mid October some earlier some later. I will always be loyal to the soil I’ve grown in coco and had to PH up and down and that was a pain In ass and the smoke was dogshit.
Was the reused soil fertilized organically or minerally? Is the process the same for both organic cultivation and mineral?
Been reusing my soil for a year or two now and I really like the way you do it. I never took the time to cook it either but I’ll try it next harvest.
I amend with gaia green 444 (75%) 284 (285) at 3 tbsp/gal, I eyeball between 15/20% wormcastings and throw in some perlite if I have it handy and sometime I’ll even throw in some rooting powder "just to see what happens"
Cheers
This was an interesting video. I was thinking about recycling last years soil with some new base soil, and possibly some "ammendments".
I did notice that my root structure was very dense (but not circling the pot), evenly spread out, dense, and lively. I was rather shocked after harvest and took a look at the roots.
This observation gave me great knowledge about what was working with how I grew.
With that being said, I started to think about what roots from harvested plants may contain within them? And if they'd help or hurt the next batch of soil using the old soil and roots?
Thanks Chris.. whers the link for the shoes ur wearing😊
I re use soil, I mix one third fresh pro mix hp one third fresh worm castings and one third used soil, I reamend with rice hulls, Gaia Green, biochar and a bit of neem seed meal. I reuse soil in my veg containers in summer.
Ik like 10 people that would have stopped watching the moment you said moist lmao this is very useful info people waste so much money not reusing soil
Great tips to know great show ✌
alr ima try this! thanks man
Can someone tell me what earth dust is other than the brand name?
What did you mean by Cooking it?
Great work! 👍 🤟
Where did you get that Amendment from Star Nursery
I do exactly what you did but I don't remove the soil, I leave it in the pot
Would a surfactant help with rehydration?
Natural surfactants like yucca are great. Don't use soap because it breaks down to salts. Alfalfa contains saponins and helps in the same way.
If I feel the need to throw my soil out, I just throw it outside for a boost to my raised beds and outdoor cannabis container plant. Otherwise, I reuse. The soil ages like fine wine growmies! Thanks Chris. 💜💛💚🌱
When i re use my soil i sometimes use horsemanure instead of worm castings.
Do you think i need the soil to cook for a while before i can use it?
Btw, great episode! Much thx
👊👊
I have heard that horse manure can be pretty "HOT" so yes, you better let it cook a good long time.
Horse manure needs to be composted for quite a while ( ~ year). It's very "hot." Yiuncam help by adding red wigglers if your in a time crunch and they should assist in attenuating the manure and breaking it down faster
@@HighGradeTexan funny thing =) im doing the exact thing right here over in Prohibiton land 👊👊
Gorilla grow
No till top dress I don’t even take out old plant stump. It breaks down and feeds
I think I over fed on my last run and fried my plants. Should I do a flush before reusing? Soil has been dry for months. Or is it best to toss it. Thank you in advance.
What about soil when using synthetic nutrients? Can I still amend and use it again or do I have to wash it? If so how do I wash it? Just flush it till I have a near zero ppm?
Iv'e been using the same dirt that I bought back in 2017. I just re-amend it with organic stuff....Blood meal...Bone meal.
Doing my first run thinking of reusing fox farm happy 50% ocean and strawberries 25% down to earth amendments 20% hydroton adding pearlites next run
So I had a couple out door plants that got PM is it ok to reuse that soil or will by using it cause next run to get pm.
No. It’s not a good idea my friend
Yes, you should be fine. Little bug people such as mites also like mushrooms and their descendants (spores) and they're all around anyway. I don't see a higher chance for old spores waiting on a substrate left to the weather jumping on the plants than spores flying around anyway to just land on a plant which is vulnerable in itself or through climate or both. PM is not a root disease and the infection vector (spores land on plant matter and get a grip there if things fit for them) does not indicate any problem in reusing that substrate.
I like to re-use my soils but im struggling to find a decent blend for autos. Always end up too hot. I csnt get the amendments that most people use as im in the uk 😏 its a struggle
Coco is great for reusing
Outstanding
I can't afford not to reuse my soil. Do farmers buy new soil and put on their fields?? no they reconditioned soil for 1,000 of years.
When corn sells for a 100$ a ear they would use new soil everytime
@@Mike-ye8qvabsolutely not
You cannot compare anything to farming. The fields are so "maintained" that almost nothing except for the desired crop will grow. In my homeland, you look across what is left of the prairie. Just a few lucky bugs flying around.
No swarms like there should be. That is not our goal. We are good at growing things.
Farming is good at killing things. Eliminate the competition.
You mean millions of years.
@@Acokeek Not farmers, but nature for sure does it too. Way more slowly though.
Any tips for insect control besides using an oven?
what insects? spider mites, I'd throw it out - just to be safe. Gnats etc, I just put diatomaceous earth on the top and let the soil dry out for a bit before reusing it. You can also water it with Mesquito Bits (product name) in some water before rehydrating the soil - or even nematodes in water before rehydrating (great for fungus gnats).
I dry my soil with a bathroom fan and garbage can. Totally dry soil. No bugs
I have a large tub, that I throw all my soil/plant material into. That tub has worms in it to break down the roots and leftover amendments. Ive had my worms for over 2 years with just one purchase, so I find it more economical than buying the castings all the time.
Is it possible to overcook your soil by leaving it more than a month ?
Letting the soil rest will give the amendments more time to be processed by the microbes and be available to the plant.
I dump all my old soil in a large bin, once at a predetermined amount, I reammend with the nominal amount of either. Gaia Green, or Down To Earth Organic amendments. I mix well, use a saponin / wetter product to ensure even moisture. Finally I allow it to break down/ cook for 2 weeks and mix well and re wet the bin. I never start in my super soil, rather I use Roots Organics mix or something like it for new girls. I'm using Fish Poop, Recharge, Mycos, BulletProof Si (silica) and a moisture meter to keep me from overwatering...... all in a 5x5 tent with 650 watt bar style light.
I have a question please Chirs. ( Mr.growit) can you just use the earth dust base. For growing cannabis. From veg to flower? Or do you have to add some thing more also for flower? Please let me know if i need some thing other then just the Earth dust base? For the veg and flower stage? For growing cannabis?
To use Earth Dust, simply follow these steps:
Vegetative Growth (1 Feeding)To start your grow, mix in 3-5 Tablespoons per gallon of soil of Earth Dust Base.For best results, keep the soil moist and let sit for 2-4 weeks to “cook” and let the microbes get to work.Just add water until 1 week before flower.Flowering Growth (2 Feedings)1 Week before flower, “Top Dress” by sprinkling 1-3 Tablespoons per gallon of soil of Earth Dust Boost and gently working into the top inch of soil.30 Days later, “Top Dress” again by sprinkling 2-4 Tablespoons per gallon of soil of Earth Dust Boost.
@@JamesBond-xh3ox thank you for your help. Much appreciated
Cheers I totally agree I reuse my coco I am in radical bags, and I let the coco dry completely I cut out the stock then rehydrate and I ad soap nuts to the cla-mag charged water as a surfactant to make the process easier
It’s fine to re use soil if you haven’t got a root ball and most of the soil isn’t touched like in a fabric pot
