The short explanation of Soil Balance is, it contains microbes that are supposedly specific to this plant to help it produce more oil (higher yield extractions), terpenes etc. I got two bags for half price so I figured I could give it a shot.No, I have not heard of those nutrients. If you want to follow a local guru and his concoctions, follow him completely. If you want a great organic grow that has everything your plants could ever want, and don't want to mess with additional teas, supplements and personal secret grow methods, get @GeoFlora Nutrients. It is good stuff.
The compost tea guy as he calls himself just makes his compost tea and sources ingredients from the local nurseries to make different blends of top dresses. I use the tea on everything I grow (my jasmine LOVES it) and the top dresses he makes work great too. I am more interested in figuring out my own soil recipe (my first attempt wasn't to great sadly - the plant seemed to like it then Idk what happened, I lost the bottom half worth of fans, a node and some nodes became half nodes). I will probably just stick to FFOF or the basic 1/3 each of base, aeration and compost. Then use whichever fertiliser line that calls to me that season along with the tea and maybe a top dress here and there.
After reading some of your threads and seeing others input on GeoFlora I am definitely leaning towards this for next seasons grow.
