Redbud Soil Companies soil is one of the few products on the market that is designed for no-till indoor marijuana growing. When in all actuality they were never designed, or tested to be specifically used in a no-till environment. This gives guano a limited lifetime, all while destroying a sensitive part of our ecosystem.Īs the soil market has expanded into no-till as being the dominate driving force for the way things should be done, these same Companies are now marketing their soils for no-till applications. The powdered form of guano only provides available nutrients for 3 to 4 weeks. From a nutrient stand point bat guano isn't as good as many of the other readily available non-habitat destroying soil amendments. The major downside of it is that when it is harvested the bats habitat is destroyed. It comes in many different NPK values, and can be used at pretty much any stage of growth. Used in conjunction, poultry compost and feather meal could make your plants end up containing higher than allowable arsenic levels which will then transfer into the finished product.īat guano was a long time staple in the cannabis industry. They both contain high levels of arsenic. Feather meal from non-organic sources has the same issue that poultry compost has. This was long before anyone asked what the farm animals were fed, what hormones were injected into them, and what life long antibiotics they were on. Blood meal and bone meal were the standard for the old “super soil” days. Questionable soil amendments use to be the norm. Arsenic is added to the poultry feed to kill rats and mice, and this arsenic transfers into their waste and is then composted down. So why would composting this be OK to add to your soil? Composted poultry manure from non-organic farms will typically contain high levels of arsenic. The amount of chemicals sprayed on the average Americans lawn is nothing that you would want to include in your no-till garden. Municipal compost is made from yard waste, and tree waste from cities and counties. These ingredients are not necessary for optimum conditions, and they very well can bring damaging effects into your garden. Ingredients like municipal yard waste compost, feather meal, blood meal, bone meal, and even bat guano, fill these commercial bags of soil. Questionable ingredientsĬommercial soil makers in the cannabis space have for to long slid by questionable ingredients into their soil blends. Without them their yields and quality would be non-existent. This is why so many “organic soil growers” that use commercial soil end up relying on bottled nutrients. These companies use inferior inputs, and use next to no soil amendments, in a soil that is only designed to make it through one cycle if you are lucky. All of our soil is mixed in small batches, and hand crafted in our Oklahoma City location.Īs the marijuana industry has progressed soil companies have jumped in to try to steal your hard earned money.
