I was mixing a batch of living soil for a few Maui autos that are seeds that I'm I'm germinating. I was going for 60L living soil, 6L ewc, 6L perlite and 3 cups 444. I messed up and put 2 cups 284 and 1 cup 444 . It should have been 3 cups 444 to equal 3 tbsp per gallon. How bad will that be to transplant into once I get my seedling going ? I will be getting the seedlings started in solo cups with HP50, then put them in the living soil mix once they have a decent root system.

It will have no effect and I doubt that either you or the plants will notice anything being different.

By the way, what is "living soil"?
 
When i mix up my living soil ,ewc , perlite, and 444 and have it in a big tote waiting for my next transplant , will it start using up it's own nutrients ? I have a few weeks before I will be planting new seedlings. That bag of living soil says it's good for 4 weeks before it needs amending. Does the soil only break down once you start watering ?

Your just letting it cook is all. If you can keep it moist and relatively warm, the microbes will begin breaking down the nutrients so they will be readily available.
