I've heard only good things about Coast of Maine as well.

Sure can! But you should add some more perlite. Not sure how much...sorry
What's the n-p-k of there castings? I would rather try something other then wiggle worm. I like experimenting well as much as I can now.
I believe it is 25% perlite to soil.....as far as how much to add to the bx.....
If you can get your hands on worm gold plus jump on it. Some of the best built and fed worms in the country. Veganic fed complex diets which create massive percentages of cellulose and chitinase ezymes to help break down that organic material even further for your root system
I'm in class right now....Doc, that says so much about the major building blocks. Very clear and easy for guys like me to understand....excellent brotha. Cheers....goin for a Stella.....and some Mazar.
Doc, this is going way back...when you first did the soil analysis using promix hp were there castings in that sample. im still puzzled how your sample tested borderline for K when peat is pretty much inert with low pH. Since K is a cation it doesnt seem to make sense that a material with low pH could have high or possibly any significant K? Even if buffered to neutral with Ca it wouldnt seem to have an effect on K content.
*Worm gold plus is made with kelp which would contribute K. For example Espoma kelp meal is 1-0-2.
"Balances and Ratios
For many years, there have been a few people who claim that there is an "Ideal" ratio of the three principal soil cation nutrients (K, Ca, and Mg). This concept probably originated from New Jersey work by Bear in 1945 that projected an ideal soil as one that had the following saturations of exchangeable cations 65% Ca, 10% Mg, 5% K, and 20% H. The cation ratios resulting from these idealizes concentrations are a Ca:Mg of 6.5:1, Ca:K of 13:1, and Mg:K of 2:1.
It is generally accepted that there are some preferred general relationships and balances between soil nutrients. There is also a significant amount of work indicating that excesses and shortages of some nutrients will affect the uptake of other nutrients. However, no reliable research has indicated that there is any particular soil ratio of K, Ca, and Mg that is uniquely superior to another ratio." Potassium Basics
How are you liking that Mazar now?

When I tested Promix early on, it barely passed without the worm castings added. They recommended I add them if I wanted higher quality right from the get go....otherwise the soil would take a couple cycles to get there. That's why I used to say the worm castings were optional. They are if you're patient!

Doc, they recommended the castings to get to a right amount of organic content? To buff de CEC maybe?
Because that is what extra runs contribute to the soil right?
