What kind of Promix? That's important!
Don't use the antifungal ones. Don't use anything with a starter charge, or coco....make sure you get Promix HP or BX (add perlite or similar product to increase porosity) Myko. If you can't get myko I can send you some extra Roots and you'll be just fine.
Promix HP Mycorhyza. That's the stuff. 3.8 cu ft of it.

Hey Doc, when you mix the soil and let it cook the 30 days, is there a must use time frame to use up the newly cooked soil?
I realize I am not Doc...However, the longer it cooks the better it becomes. The 30 days is a minimum amount of time to cook. Just be sure its "damp" while it sits there.

Thanks Curso, looks like I will be looking into Hi brix

I was basically running half and letting half cook while things flowered and flip flopped it.
We can use all the roots and organic matter from the pot (aside from woody stems they take forever to break down) and use it to feed the next round. "Rescued" soil if you will, some of us throw all our organic matter back, leaves and all that stuff that isnt usable as medicine gets cooked into the soil for the next round or top dressing. Free hummus...nothing is wrong with free hummus....

I noticed that in your journal yesterday Curso, amazing!
I have been mucking around with the bottled nute b.s. and just figured it was time to take a leap of faith after watching Hi Brix journals for a yr now.
Hoping to put everything together for a hi brix run by end of January from seed

It's hard to go wrong starting from seed. I think you'll be really happy, provided your environment is good and you follow directions!
Pretty dang easy, really. Avoid fancy pots or schemes....large plastic or fabric pots work great. 7 gallons is the recommended size....larger is often better.

Yes it will. These are 27 gal and they worked out fine. Not sure if it needs a complete seal but there was sweat on the lid when I checked soil moisture. Excited for the next run as I had this batch 2nd run cooking since April.
Peace,

Those will work! The only thing I'd say is keep them in a warm place. A large volume of soil makes its own heat, while a smaller container will take on the temperature of the concrete it sits on. So, keep it in a nice warm place....mid 70's if possible.

Old Roots was rock powders and myko.
New Roots! is rock powders, myko, organic fertilizer, biochar and langbeinite. It no longer requires Transplant Water ( 1oz per gallon) and it adds some magnesium which some strains seem to require. It's just amazing stuff.
The new amendment is slightly tweaked as well. Nothing drastic, the old one will work perfectly well and you can add the new to the old with no problem.

Those are the exact same one's I'm using! Nice! Thanks guys. Thanks for the great service and quick shipping Doc.

You'll be OK. There's myko in the amendment AND the EWC and the stuff in the bale was probably still viable. Carry on!
Hey doc, super random place to do this but I honestly just went for the first post of yours I came across. Could you set me up with details on this brix kit when you have a free minute? I'd love to read more and I'm considering doing a side-by-side with the AN system, thanks a lot!
