Using compost for growing marijuana is a great way to save money, especially in organic marijuana growing.
If you’re growing marijuana in soil, soilless mix, or outdoors, you want to start composting. I did it, for these reasons:
- I’m dissatisfied with the price and quality of commercial soils and soilless mixes.
- I want safe, organic, nutrients-rich additives for my root zone, for free.
- I want beneficial microbes in my root zone.
- I eat a lot of fruits and veggies, and have piles of marijuana leaves, stalks and stems—composting is a great way to repurpose them.
Composting is a lot easier and cheaper than you think, although it can be made into a difficult, costly process. The good news is you can make compost without using expensive compost bins or spending a lot of time on it.
Compost can be used inside your cannabis root zone and as a top dressing. It installs beneficial microbes and nutrients, especially nitrogen, and it’s free! You see explosive growth in veg phase, fatter buds, and healthier roots. Compost is an essential part of feed programs for organic marijuana, and can reduce the amount of organic or veganic fertilizers you have to buy.https://www.youtube.com/embed/swLkA1cHJ4Y?version=3&rel=1&showsearch=0&showinfo=1&iv_load_policy=1&fs=1&hl=en&autohide=2&wmode=transparent
