You can always make LAB. It’s super easy to make with rice & brown sugar! That and a worm casting tea will bring a bunch of bennies
Worth buying BuildASoils soil?

I'm not sure what lab is yet. I've not made any teas yet either. I figured grokashi would do that no?

Bokashi top dress and or teas are nice inoculations, you could skip teas and just top dress and gain the same microbe beneficials. If your soils healthy you’ll mostly likely have beneficial mites and others occur naturally. Especially if your using home made worm castings as well as using worms in your pot (15gal min)

I'm working my way to no till. I just ordered 20 gal. Grassroots no till pot. For now I'm top dressing with bas craft blend and their ewc with perlite and grokashi. I used some defoliated leaf and stem for some mulch for now. Getting straw also. I'm only in 3 gal right now but I'm only vegging.

Ya worms prefer more room, but I have some living in 3 gal pots, and even a few in 1/2 gal pots. My main pots are 15 gal though.

I don't believe it's enough soil volume to be no till though. I'd like the 3x3 box but it's too much weight. Maybe someday though. Lol

Are you able to keep cycling the same soil in the same pots at those volumes? I want worms too! Lol

I usually just start clones in 1/2 gal pots of my soil. So when I transplant a clone from the 1/2 gal pots into a 15 I use the dirt from the hole I make in the 15 gal pot and put it back in the 1/2 gal pot after I transplant. So then I have a 1/2 pot of soil ready for another clone when I'm ready. I also try not to disturb any soil in the 15 gal pot that I don't have to. Gotta keep the fungal hyphae network intact.

I'm cooking some topdressing now actually. After it's done cooking I'm gonna bag some up in an old BAS bag and try storing some like the Build A Flower mix. I'll have it ready to just top dress some when I want. I'm gonna try it.Cool man. Between you guys, and Jeremy's videos, I believe I'm finally getting this! I'm kinda pumped. Lol... thanks again man!

Do you guys
I was thinking about that too. I've had cold feet because I still have so little supply, I don't wanna ruin it and have nothing. Let me know how it goes. I bought some build a flower and I'm gonna try it while I'm waiting to get my no till going.

My order was supposed to come today. It was delayed for some reason.
I'm hoping to use it starting this weekend. Do you think I should add it a week or two before putting my plant into flower?
