For this video we made the Clackamas Coot soil mix which we later use to grow one huge cannabis plant! The coots mix is a great option for growing cannabis in true no-till living soil.

Now… Please Tell Everyone, Just How Much This
“Hoochie-Coochie” Living Soil In Total, Cost You??
Plus, How Long It Took To Source It All…
Proving The Knowledge And ALSO, Setting Expectations…
Are Great Factors To Know.
A Cost Breakdown Of This “Coochie” Soil Mix, Would Set The Expectation Level… Whether Living Soil/Organic Growing Is For Them… Or, Whether The Easier Sourced & Much-Better, Price Point Of The Salt-Based Nutrients…
Happens To Be A Better Fit.
** Anyone That Has Deep Pockets & Endless Amount Of Prep-Time, Can Build A Great Living Soil/Organic Growing Method.
However, Everyone Should Flush A Minimum Of One Week… But Two Is Preferable, When Using Salts… Or, Mr. Deep Pockets Living Soil…
Some Will Report That With Organic/Living Soil Grows… The Smoke Is Cleaner, Giving It A Better Taste & All-Around Smoking Experience.
Now, I For One… Have Smoked Many Different Strains, Grown BOTH Ways.
There’s Maybe A Touch Of A Better Smoking Experience When Using Organic Media, Compared To The Salt-Based Fertilizers…
But So Minimal… Plus Any New Grower Absolutely Couldn’t Tell.
Let’s Talk About Production… Salt-Based Nutrients BLOW Organics Out Of The Park.
Higher Yields And THC/Total Cannabinoids Using Salt-Based Nutes, Over Daddy WarBuck’s Pockets.
NOW, Price Differences…
First Off, They Are ALL PRICED “STUPIDLY”…!!
But, Organic Growing Is About 35-50% More Than Salts…
Where Living Soil Growing… Unless, You Are Wealthy Or Firmly Established In Life… And Are Ok With Wasting Money…
Then Salts Are By Far The Better Choice… Because The Differences In Smoke Reports…Are So Minute, That It Simply Doesn’t Make Any Sense. Period.
Unless, You’re A “Keeping Up With The Jones’s”,… Type Of Person And Want To Puff Out Your Chest, Telling People You Grow “Organically”… “Argh-Argh..!!!”…
I Hope This Gives The New Growers A Bit To Go Off Of…
And It’s 100% Factual Information.
Some Say It’s A Matter Of Preference… Well, EVERYTHING IN LIFE IS…
Do You Have Money To Burn…??
There’s Your Answer To This Choice… Because You Won’t Be Able To Tell In Your Smoke Report.
Unless, Your Chopping Up “Smaller” Buds… Then Your 8-10 Time Gonna Know It’s Organically/Living Soil Grown.
Truth & 😮
Your Welcome. Peace Out! 🤘🏻
Love the videos and the different methods used. As a fairly new grower its nice to see all the different methods in action and i myself am trying different things. What is your favorite so far? Between the gia green and coco mix, the dwc or the super soil?
Gaia green, living soil and Cheap do not go in the same sentence 🤣
You have way too much compost in this mix, I don’t care what anybody says. It makes your mix far too heavy/mucky and makes the mix hold onto far too much water for far too long while reducing air exchange in the media. The roots will also struggle to work through it as well. I don’t know why so many mixes suggest this. Not to mention buying almost a dozen soil additives is absolutely ridiculous when black swallow makes a premade ready to go 4-4-4 or 2-8-4 blend fertilizer that works just peachy and essentially has everything you just mentioned. I swear the organic growers are getting to be as bad as bottle growers with the amount of additives they want you to use. Will this mix grow buds? sure. Will it do it ideally? not in my opinion.
8:43 Dayyum!! Son! That's a helluva lotta amendments there. Idk if I'd do all that lol. It's nice to see all the different styles and how things progress over time, especially our understanding of things.
Still too complicated
Any soil recipe if you want to do it right you should lab test your base mix as the nutritional composition of compost can vary greatly, if it’s high in sodium, nitrates, phosphorus ammonium etc it can really throw off the balance of your soil mix, otherwise it’s a complete guess. Coots recipe has been around for a long time and it’s good for beginners but targeted nutrient management via lab testing is the way to build sufficient and balanced soil fertility.
Looks great⚡️⚡️⚡️
I like to use plywood and Sewer sludge is the best and it always works
Your plants are very beautiful
I get the worm castings with worm egg material in it good stuff
I use down to earth need seed meal don't you just love that smell yummy 😢
What's alpha alpha…..I thought it was AL-FAL-FA…. Alfalfa
You still have to use dry amendments even in no till, as sometimes things get “thrown off”…
This is the recipe i started with and then made it my own by adding all my favorite amendments.
great video, guys!
Great work much love and respect keep growing
Check out my 2024 grow Thanks
Hey is there any chance that i get this in the eu germany ?
What genetics are these?! They look juicy!! Nice work!
Did you have to add anything else during the 1st run during flower???
For any Canadian growers specifically Ontario and interested in LSO, I recommend Black Swallow or Dark Earth, you will not be disappointed.
Anytime I see anyone using Black Swallow, I am happy. It means you care and you did some research <3 personally KISS mix for me has done wonders for almost a decade now
What size tent and pot are you using? Im trying to scrog with one plant in a 2×2.
Been doing soil mixes for over a decade, and this is a solid mix, and most ingredients are easily sourced! 👌🏻
Cool vid keep it up
Everyone should call their US senators and encourage them to sign on to Senate bill CAOA that legalizes cannabis at the federal level ! 18 have and 43 more needed to pass ! Let's do this !
Must be nice to grow without being thrown in jail.
