dont get lost in the weeds. many folks do. organics are stupid complex. BUT organics also have guardrails that essentially put the most labor and skill-intensive parts of the grow into 'easy mode'. you dont need to a biologist or botanist or an organic chemist to get a good crop from organics. never confuse those implications. aka just because you had a good pull from living soil, does not imply you were driving that boat proper every day. you can spend years doing organics and not be a master, you can also spend a single organic crop and be harvesting the za of your lifetime. for example, a common build a soil type input is bone or rock dust. these are going to be yearly amendments for anyone working at scale. it just doesnt translate to home growing cannabis unless you are making a bed you plan on tilling for the next decade. i have growmies on here that do indeed use these amendements.... they acid treat the bone and use UV exposure to simulate those yearssssss. regardless, the micros targeted by the rock dust are also available in much more processed forms naturally from seawater concentrates. jimbob throwing bone meal and rock dust into their ocean forest blend is often just pissing in the wind for lack of a better term. most folks are using their soil for 1 or maybe 2/3 cycles for cannabis. anyway, organic chemistry is like that. theres only like a dozen diff things you can even do in o chem. all synthesis paths in the universe are just iterations of those like dozen things.
unless you are really trying to build a bed of that nature outdoors, you can skip 9/10 amendments that are popular. if you start with ocean forest, get a microscope, and check your bag once it arrives... likely not that good so have some great white and/or recharge ready to go to innoculate. fire her up. get some sugar. literally anywhere. honey, raw sugar, sugar water, marg mix, urine from a diabetic... etc. then watch how she grows. once you are up on that, start getting into times on fermenting teas. a tea can be brewed for many purposes. microscope comes into play here. once you can fire a bag of ocean forest up and rock it the entire grow and have teas down, there really isnt much else to do. get into some kelp or other phytoho sources, and yeah silica is nice. id prioritize recycling your own refuse from your crop into a nutrient ferment and a separate hormone extract before adding in silica, which should be in abundance in the ocean forest frfr. cannabis is proving to show biomimicry properties just like a human, everything you need is in your refuse from the prior crop at some point in the cycle
