When it comes to talking about soil, a lot of new growers’ eyes glaze over. Yes, it might not seem exciting right out the gate, though we promise we can change your mind about soil if you stick with us. Soil is one of the most important parts of your growing operation.

You might see soil as that massive bag of brown from your local home improvement store. We ask you to get that predisposition of soil out of your head, as while it is the easiest and most economical way for new growers to get started, there are far better forms of super soil that you can find in stores today.

It is also surprisingly easy to make your own super soil, and might even end up costing you less to do so. Plus, making your own soil will excite you far more than a giant plastic bag from your local home improvement store.

What Makes Soil So Important?

One of the keys to optimizing your grow is soil. Soil is life. With organic super soil, you give your plants the organisms they need to grow taller and stronger. Even a shot glass filled with super soil has more organisms in it than there are humans on planet Earth.

These organisms work day in and day out to provide the soil with the life it needs to sustain plants. People often over-complicate with synthetic nutrients. When the soil that you create is right, all you will need to do is give it a bit of water.

Why Should You Go Organic?

You get a much higher-quality product when you decide to grow your cannabis organically. While chemicals can seem helpful, you often risk burning and killing your plants. With so many great recipes for super soil online, it makes sense to try it out.

Subcool created the very first recipe for super soil and it still remains one of the best on the market today.

Picking The Right Amendments for Your Super Soil

Once you have a good idea of the soil you are using, you may need to add amendments to compensate for the things that it is missing.

Growing plants need a few things to thrive, including Nitrogen, Phosphorus, and Potassium.

For nitrogen-rich materials, we highly recommend:

• Crustacean meal
• Worm castings
• Bat guano

For phosphorus-rich materials, we highly recommend:

• Chicken manure
• Bone meal
• Rock dust

For potassium-rich materials, we highly recommend:

• Wood ash
• Compost
• Kelp Meal

Final Thoughts

Once you have added everything, make sure that you adequately mix your soil by tilling it. Do this every two to three days and begin using your soil once it is cool to the touch.
