Living soil & Korean natural farming question

[Virandell]

I think maybe something must be missing in translation here, I must not be understanding you correct so I apologize in advance for that.

What size pots and are they FABRIC or plastic?

They are 8L airpots (plastic)

 

[Nunyabiz]

32l I believe is about 8 gallons of soil, forgive my Merikan nonsense measurements but it's what I am used to.
That IMO is not even half what you should have for just one pot.

 

[Virandell]

How ? 1 gallon Is 3.7L yep ? My pots are 2gallons (abit over) and I got 4 of them.
If I got 8 gallons of soil is 2 gallons for each pot which would be correct ?

 

[Nunyabiz]

2 gallon airpots are woefully inadequate for what you are wishing to do.
Airpots are better than plain old plastic pots but 2 gal is not even in the ball park of what you need my friend.

 

[Nunyabiz]

Well yeah and you can take 1000 gallons of soil and split it up into 500 pots and you still have woefully inadequate amount of soil per pot.
Doesn't matter in the slightest what your total is

I am thinking you must be pulling my leg

I am not sure if I can understand u right so what I need ? ^^

 

[Virandell]

I will be "cooking" soil in around 12 gallon toy tub but later when it will be ready I will be growing in 2 gallon pots
I am not sure if that what u mean sorry it's my English ..

 

[Nunyabiz]

If you really want to do a Living Organic Soil where plants are fed by the soil almost entirely then IMO a flat minimum of 15 gallon and preferably Fabric pots.
So about 60l each pot

 

[Virandell]

How 60L if pots are only 8L ?
Sorry mate

 

[Nunyabiz]

Alrighty, good luck to you.

 

[Virandell]

Alrighty, good luck to you.

I am doing that indoor sorry buddy it's my English but thanks for advices and patience

 

[Nunyabiz]

Your English is fine, your math however needs serious improvement.
