Dude! This looks awesome. My first grow about to complete started before I knew much about living soil... Already set up my next containers in a similar fashion to what you've got going. Looking forward to seeing your progress... I attended a cannabis cultivation seminar last weekend, Kevin Jodrey shared research that sold me .... Here's a few notes I jotted down! - "Living soil destroys other growing methods in cannabanoids, terpene, flavanoid levels, and secondary metabolite production.(essentially vaster and more diverse expressions of cannabinoid profiles, not necessarily potency) " - "Outdoors in living soil, abiotic factors (wind, rain, temp, humidity) force the plant to perform. With indoor Living soil, biological activity in a contained area is the stressor that forces the plant to perform" - "higher THC USUALLY means lower terpene production Anyway, living soil just excites me, so even if one of these tips causes a spark in your brain in a positive way, then I am happy! - GreenGrows :D

@@GreenGrows, thanks for dropping by and your comments! Very good to know, That is music to my ears! Maybe one day it'll be legal in the UK and I won't be paranoid about attending a seminar about it! I forgot to mention, I also stole a few red earth worms from a wormery my son keeps for feeding his Newt. This pot was an experiment, I am already plotting/preparing for the next one, here is what I bought already which I think is what I am adding to used biobizz lightmix soil, aiming for 220L which I will put in 4 55L pots: Willy worms worm castings compost 30L - apparently lots of good in here Canna coco coir 30L - more aeration Pumice 30L - even more aeration Ecothrive life-cycle - seemed to be a cheaper and pre-mixed option for super soil, I am lazy 1.5L Chicken manure Bought some companion plants: Alfala, Clover (white and red) Basil Chamomile Once my current grow is finished, I'll start on mixing those things, potting and waiting for companion plants to show then I''ll add some worms in here too :) why not Thanks again for your input and looking forward to watching you grows, there is so much to learn
