Question.
I use BioBizz Light Mix and would like to enhance it with worm castings, how much should I mix in?
I would have thought that the light mix would be around the young plant and LM + worm casts a lite bitt further around

20 percent sounds right. its hard to overdue worm castings. They are not exactly cheap, So I tend to use them conservativly. You could add a cup or two per plant and they will enjoy it. Just don't want to make your soil too dense and not able to drain. One had a bag or castings rip open so I just put it all in twoof my plants pots like a pound or two of castings each and they next day they were looking beautiful

I would not use more then 10% , they can gunk up the medium and turn it to muck. Also can top dress with them or making a compost tea out of them.
Good Luck!

Ive been using homemade soil that consists of roughly 1/3 worm castings (in volume) with very good results.
The plants love it!

I use it always and it will help you also retain water. I use 1/3 of the soil mix volume of castings on final pot and re amend a little when flipping to flower as a top dress.

Up to about 20% is perfect.
Never have soil in "layers", always mix everything together and have a homogenous substrate.

15%-20% is mostly advised.
Mixing it into the outer soil might work, much success,
and Happy Growing

PH-Problems in SoilBefore repotting, the pH value in the soil has always fallen to below 5.5. The plants always have an iron deficiency. I then repotted the plants and that worked well for 14 days. Now they are showing PH deficits again. The soil has PH 5,4 -4,8. What could be the reason?

Soil Amount Heavily DecreasedHello everyone, I'm almost at the end of my first grow and I've noticed that the amount of soil in my pots compacted pretty heavily. How do I avoid this problem in my next grow? (Pictures show the beginning and the current state of the soil; ~ -7cm soil height)

What and why?What are these and do I need to address it?
I'm a couple of weeks in to my grow and just spotted these little critters when I was cleaning my run off saucers. I'm guessing there's more inside the soil are they harmful to my plants?

Mold on soilI used BioBizz LightMix with Monsterbud Mix from Amnesia and some mycorrhiza in the hole of the seed. 3 seeds after 3 days still not germinated in soil. Had foil on top of the pots for humidity. Probably watered a bit too much. What should I do and will my seeds still germinate?

Moss in 2nd weekHey everyone,
What should be the next course of action as moss has grown on the plants in the past two days (and it seems likely that the pH level is excessively acidic - source the internet)?

PhUp P.Hydro vs. P.Carb vs. BothPotassium Hydroxide Vs. Potassium Carbonate : or Both for PH+ up.
Does one have lower EC value in solution when used?
Does ones have better stability in solution for hydro or soil?
Does one have more reactivity with other elements in the grow?
Does one have higher PH?

Why does coco nutes often only have one A B blend, instead of 2 seperate Veg and Bloom blends?I personally use Plagron nutes in coco, hence I use the same A+B bottles for veg and flower.
When looking at nutes for soil they have the 2 different bottles for veg vs bloom.
So my question here is why does it seem like some coco lines(plagron, canna) only have 1 over both?Setup. Substrates
