Step 1
Add 1 litre of bokashi to every 45-litre bag of Dr Organics Living Soil. Mix well, then decant into the desired pot size of your choice.
Step 2
Seeds can be germinated directly into Dr Organics Living Soil. Some people prefer to sow directly into the final pot, while others choose to start seedlings in a solo cup to establish a root mass. This is up to the individual grower. Autoflower seeds, however, should always be planted directly into the final pot size.
Step 3
Allow your plant to establish itself and develop a root mass. Vegetate for at least 2 to 3 weeks, then use Dr Organics Microben Terra Actus at 5 ml per litre of water once per week, as directed. This product replenishes the soil with millions of living microbes, allowing you to maintain a wet–dry cycle with maximum root growth and re-oxygenation of the root zone and growing medium. It is far more advantageous to use this method compared to maintaining constant moisture in the soil, which can lead to root rot, poor growth, slowed nutrient uptake, and a small root zone that fails to search for water and expand.
Step 4
Once your plants are ready to switch to flower, combine 5 ml of Microben Terra Actus and 25 ml of banana ferment per 1 litre of water. Use this solution with every other watering throughout the flowering stage. Dr Organics 2-8-10 Bloom is also required at the start of weeks 3 and 5 of flower. This can be applied as a top dress or dissolved into water, left for a few hours, and then watered directly into the soil.
Step 5
Discontinue the use of Microben Terra Actus and banana ferment 2 to 3 weeks prior to harvest, and allow your plants to naturally fade into beautiful autumnal colours.
When reusing Dr Organics Living Soil, re-amend with the 4-3-4 at the recommended dosage. Add bokashi once again, along with Dr Organics hemp seed meal and mineral mix. Hemp seed increases biomass, and the eggshell mineral mix helps remineralize the soil. The eggshell mineral mix contains a citric compound to make calcium and magnesium available to the plants, but it is advisable to add fresh lemon juice with a small amount of water, allow it to fully activate, then further dilute before watering into the soil.
You can simply use the 4-3-4 without the other products when re-amending and still achieve excellent results. However, for the absolute best outcome, it is recommended to use bokashi, hemp seed meal, and mineral mix to replenish all essential micro- and macronutrients. Once this is done, decant back into your pots, water at around 10% volume using Microben Terra Actus at the stated dosage, and cover with a plastic bag or cling film across the pot. Keep in a warm tent (ideally with the light on, at 28°C, for at least 8 hours per day) and allow the thermogenic action to take place for 7 days so the ingredients can break down and bring your soil back to life.
Step 6
Plant your new seeds or clones and repeat the process.
