Thanks brother, lucky in a lot of ways lol.....shh! The space is a little further along that you see in the picture. Yesterday's heat was so crazy that I didn't work 9n it at all. Tomorrow this weather is supposed to be gone. 42°C here with the humidity yesterday....my dogs didn't even enjoy their walk.

Took myself a little bit of a break from building today and went shopping for my new organic soil that I am going to start in the new year with the new space.
Also picked up some Happy Frog ocean forest for a couple of Autos that I might try until then.
these just add to my ever-growing pile of amendments LOL.
Monsieur Van Stank......youre solely responsible for my lack of money lmao. ...... I also picked up a small air pump with an 8 hose manifold so that I can make teas and foliar sprays.

Wow, you're going all out there. I haven't seen ANY of those products around here.
Seriously! I started a compost last weekend. I really am interested in the hibrix stuff. Looks like you got a lot of goodies there guy! That addition is coming along great I bet.

I have to admit that I didn't take a complete break..... I did run 90' of 10/3 cable underground as well as Burying my water source under the lawn as well. I didn't go down as far as code requires (18"), I figured 12" was great for a hot day LMAO. Roughed in allows me to finish up the decking. Im dying to get a roof on the right shed so that I can dismantle the left shed, move everything into the right and get cracking on my side of the yard. I sourced all of the metal roofing on Kijiji for $500. I'm picking it up this weekend. The roof is only 2/12, so I'm blueskinning the roof to prevent frost/water from travelling up hill in the thaws/refreeze cycles and causing leaks.....then strapping it and installling the roofing. Epic fucking build lol.........

I was too. I contacted Doc, but cost and the time needed was too much for me along with all this. I never knew about the Brix count at all. It all still interests me very much, just one of those things that I put on the back burner.
Shopping spree!!!! I can't wait for some wedding money... Then I get mine. Are you going to "cook" the soil after mixing? Something I kinda remember reading way back when I had thoughts of making my own soil.

Definitely gotta let it cook. I got my inspiration from Stank. His ATF plants are amazing. This is some of what he tried to get together himself. I think his girls are/were kindsoil, which is an awesome product, but ridiculous to ship here. So I started to Source. ....seeing what I could find, seeing what I could learn. Stank gave me the ultimate shopping list and I'm trying to get it all and include a few more that I've picked up along the way. I might try some Snow white autos in the Happy frog if my space isn't up and running.

Is it a hydro shop or a landscaping/dirt by the bulk store? I'm heading to a hydro store in Barrie... I was talking to a buddy and there is a local guy making his own organic and they have been raving about it and selling it there. I'll let you know when I get some info..

I'm going that way this Saturday to buy my roofing materials. What info do you presently have? I've put a lot of research into my base soil, so i want to ensure its perfect. Black swallow is where I'd like to visit.....Theirs a reason they chose Brantford and it took them 3 years to Source all of their amendments in bulk.
