Growing organic without breaking the bank

[shathaway]

I want to get into growing organically, its seem like when I read about it, there are so many amendments to buy, that it is expensive to get going. I am currently using fox farm ocean forest soil.

how can I get started without spending a fortune, but making sure my plants get what they need.

also, can I switch during a grow? I use fox farm trio, calimagic, and recharge for nutes now.

thanks in advance for help.

Check out earth dust. Also check out RealGrower's Recharge. These two products will turn FFOF into an organic powerhouse, cheaply and easily.

thank you,
what about feeding during the grow, or is that enough that you dont need much else?

sorry, trying to learn, still quite new at this.

you don't feed during an organic grow... you simply water and make sure that there are active microbes coming in regularly. All of the "food" that the plant will need is in the mineralized soil that you prepare before the grow, or when using earth dust, by replenishing the minerals several times during the grow.

There are also "supersoils" that you can buy that have been mineralized and cooked for some time so that the elements are ready to go. Put some of this as the bottom third of your container, with FFOF on top, and you have a good organic grow ready to go. Then get some recharge or learn to make proper compost teas, and you got it... cheaply and quickly
