Great vids Sub! I had once seen a friend of mine mix his soil in a portabal cement mixer. He bought it brand new and mixes like a champ! Well keep up the great work and stay safe. Peace
im gonna take a stab in the dark and say that was someone's ashes because he would have told us if it warranted us putting it into our mix. sorry to be morbid Sub but i understand not telling us the secret ingredient
@jcmnica2007 There is a good chance you'll get some nute burn if you don't let it sit for 2 weeks or more, microbes gotta do their work.
Letting it sit also allows nutrients to become more "available" to the plant, don't want to start off with a deficiency and play catch-up the whole grow.
Nice video, much appreciated. I currently grow with roots organics (and some TLO concepts and ingredients added), my end goal is to transition to a bottle free Living Organic sytle of grow. I plan to try both Super Soil, and the Rev's TLO, one immediate advantage I see with Super Soil (compared to TLO) is that it uses far less ingredients, and they are easier to find in Michigan. I'm smoking some Plush Berry as I'm tying this, the purple buds smell and taste amazing!
Like he states it's like a buffet of fertilizer and the plant will grow into the soil slowly and work it's roots into the hotter soil taking what it needs in the process.
Look at his buds seriously look at his grows and he uses it as a Concentrate. Half super soil or less. People need to read he has this info literally all over the Internet and you cannot get healthier plants and sweet taste without this mix. If you have a better method put up your proof like he has....
you just mix everything together,,you overdose fertilizer!!!!! that amount fertilizer -bone meal, epsom salt and garden lime will kill every plant !!!
@bensonandaga : LMAO .. You are stupid as hell and need to do some learning .. plants only take up nutrients as they break down and as their are needed .. Organic fertilizer works differently than chemical fertilizer .. you idiot
I've seen the written directions for this elsewhere and in the directions you say to add some water and let it cook outside in the sun for 30 days. If you live in a place like I do, Washington state, this time of year late Sept. going into Oct., we don't get much sun at all and get lots of rain. What should I do in that case? Thanks and always enjoy your work and your seeds. Top Grade!
It may be more cost effective to forget about the pre-mix base and just buy some bales of OMRI listed peat moss(or coco if you perfer) and mix with the composts/castings for the base.
I have Subcool's book, and I admire his work:) but I have always avoided any factory-farmed organics such as the bone/blood meals. Fish meal and fish bone meal are a more natural alternitive, as long as they are not from farmed fish.
Do you use Sul-Po-Mag? It makes for the most chronic "Tomatoes" ever!
sir, may i ask a important question. i have my plush's on, and the soil mix i use is plant magic plus mixd with 20% perlite 10-chunky vermi, 10 worm casts, and maybe a hand full of dry chk manure pellets.
can i ashk u if i would need any further nutes in the due course. i AM also making teas too using a bit of cataylsts (plant or kelp i think) CAN I USE SYNTHETICs later in the flower stage alongside and IF SO do i feed them seperatley. sorry to bother u. KEEP DOING YA THANG. i love ur strains
@subcool420 sub I'm so sorry 4 bugging u with all the noob questions but I plan to make a batch of ur super soil on Friday. I don't need so much so if I just use a 1/4 of all the ingredients I should b fine rt! My real question is how long shall I let the ss sit b4 I can use it,& when I do , I water with RO water rt, so the clorein won't kill the bennies rt???
@subcool420 can't wait for the next vid, but can u list the new supersoil contents? Oh and do u water with just ro water frm this point? Aso is the secret ingredient a benificial???
@subcool420 sub is this the same mixture u use for 2011 or do u have a new and improved super soil? If you've changed anything can u send a list or make a vid showing or saying whts in the new mix? I'm really interested in trying my hand in organics being that I only gro for my own consumption. I only use a 1/4 of ur ingredients bcuz I'm only need and grow from a 4x4 tent so please don't hold back on the additives. Thanks so much Subcool
sorry sub, next year arizona will have more time to commit our efforts to getting measure 74 up that hill. we would love nothing than to see a west coast connection with all the surrounding states. looking forward to the year ahead in winning more flexibility and safe access for paients in oregon. peace

@maverik713 Dont mean to sound like a Dick...but if you watch the video around 1:08-1:10 he shows what it is. Its Roots Organics Potting soil by Aurora Innovations, its the large Camouflage looking bag on the left corner of the cart.
@gnetics18 I couldn't see the label on the bag and just wanted to be sure. Thanks for the detailed explanation. And no, you didn't come off like a dick, thanks again.
@maverik713 No problem man, Im looking for reviews on it right now as It looks like I might be using this in an Indoor setup soon Hopefully. Have heard nothing but good things so far.. and great grow logs from Subcool.
It more likely a fungal/bacterial innoculant.... He only needs to add a pinch because they will reproduce on thier own in this soil mix. The azomite is used in far greater qty's... Why would her reffer to one application of azomite as azomite, and the other as a secret ingredient...
@snipes09 That's right, it's Azomite. Along with a balance substrate, humic acid and other mineral ingredients mentioned aren't as important as Azomite. Look it up. Try it. Amazing stuff . I use it in everything.
@snipes09 Wrong. I think it's the Azomite. Humics are inherently available from castings/guano. I've had similar results with irrigated humic water mix at planting without dry humics premixed into the recipe than premixing with dry humics. Since adding this dust in my organic regiment, I'd have to estimate 99.9 percent cannabis grown "organically" without the Azomite are not optimally grown and deficient one way or the other in any of the 16 mineral traces used by all plants. bye bye defs!
whats the brand of worm castings u use? i just got sum happy frog... please let me kno, i'd be greatfull to learn from a master... i dont care what any one says, u made better weed than arijan, anyone thats smoked ur strains knos what im talking about, i liked the flav story i cant wait till me and my friends gotta test phenos
