In those days, Super Soil techniques were inconceivable in a sector that was only interested in increasing crops\u2019 productivity.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The immediate consequences of such crops were less <strong>nutritious supplies<\/strong>, full of toxic or unhealthy substances. In the long run, <strong>soil becomes less fertile<\/strong> due to the microbial trophic chain breakage; as organic matter rich in carbon diminishes. Bacteria, fungi and insects help plants feed in a natural way; in order for them to obtain all their necessary sources to form beneficial nutrients for humans.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/www.growbarato.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Interior-GB-2.0-2024-07-11T120424.732.jpg\" alt=\"What is Super Soil\" class=\"wp-image-170189\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.gbthegreenbrand.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Interior-GB-2.0-2024-07-11T120424.732.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.gbthegreenbrand.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Interior-GB-2.0-2024-07-11T120424.732-300x135.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.gbthegreenbrand.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Interior-GB-2.0-2024-07-11T120424.732-768x346.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>\u00a0Super Soil is one of the best alternatives to slow down the increase of crops grown with chemical fertilizers. It is also useful to enrich plants\u2019 life cycle in an organic and beneficial way for the ground. Nowadays, this technique has become very popular within cannabis grows.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_is_Super_Soil\"><\/span>What is Super Soil?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Anyone in contact with the cannabis industry has probably heard about Super Soil, as its use is on the rise. However, it is not uncommon for people not to know exactly what this method is all about because they haven\u2019t come around to informing themselves about this revolutionary growing system.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/www.growbarato.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/image-8.jpg\" alt=\"What is Super Soil\" class=\"wp-image-170184\" title=\"What is Super Soil\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.gbthegreenbrand.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/image-8.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.gbthegreenbrand.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/image-8-300x135.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.gbthegreenbrand.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/image-8-768x346.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Super Soil is the perfect method to grow cannabis organically. It <strong>enhances its natural properties <\/strong>while keeping toxic substances and pesticides away from the flowers in particular, and from the environment in general.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Super Soil consists of <strong>predicting the nutritional needs of the plant during its entire cultivation cycle <\/strong>and then creating a substrate mixture that includes all those nutrients in the proportion that the grower reckons the plant will demand.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In order to carry out this technique, the grower needs to know the amount of macro and micro nutrients the plant needs at each cultivation phase; therefore, some <strong>experience in the cannabis field is a must<\/strong>. Otherwise, the grower should seek advice from a knowledgeable person or source.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Super_Soil_according_to_the_type_of_crop\"><\/span>Super Soil according to the type of crop<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Before deciding to use this technique, it\u2019s important to take into account the type of plants grown and the cultivation surroundings. For example, the Super Soil mixture won\u2019t be the same for an outdoor crop that starts at the end of February than for an indoor grow with an automatic strain that finishes its full cycle in only 8 weeks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Lengthy crops<\/strong> will require <strong>slow releasing fertilizers<\/strong>, such as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gbthegreenbrand.com\/boom-nutrients-nutes\/6049-scarab-boom.html\">Scarab Boom<\/a> or bat guano. <strong>Fast grows<\/strong>, on the other hand, will do better with <strong>rapidly assimilated fertilizers<\/strong> to make sure they don\u2019t stay in the cultivation medium for too long, like for example worm hummus or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gbthegreenbrand.com\/boom-nutrients-nutes\/6035-humic-boom.html\">Humic Boom<\/a>, by Boom Nutrients.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Making Super Soil is not limited to adding the mixture to the cultivation area; it also needs to <strong>rest for 20-60 days<\/strong> (depending on the characteristics of the grow) to ensure micro-organic life turns the Super Soil mixture into a rich environment capable of providing cannabis seeds with all the necessary nutrients.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/www.growbarato.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/image-7.jpg\" alt=\"Super Soil\" class=\"wp-image-170179\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.gbthegreenbrand.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/image-7.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.gbthegreenbrand.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/image-7-300x135.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.gbthegreenbrand.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/image-7-768x346.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>Using a Super Soil mixture doesn&#8217;t mean forgetting about plants\u2019 nutritional needs.You still need to keep an eye to ensure the right amount of micro-life for plants to grow healthy. If nutritional deficiencies are still present, they are easy to fix by modifying the first Super Soil structure in order to meet the demands of the plant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When <strong>growing in pots<\/strong>, you need to be very careful with the proportions. It&#8217;s quite easy to fall into <strong>over-fertilization<\/strong> by forcing the roots to absorb all the nutrients added to the substrate.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On the contrary, cannabis plants grown straight into the ground aren\u2019t limited by space and specific nutrients. They are free to absorb nutrients according to their needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Advantages_and_disadvantages_of_using_Super_Soil\"><\/span>Advantages and disadvantages of using Super Soil<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Advantages\"><\/span>Advantages<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/www.growbarato.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/image-6.jpg\" alt=\"Advantages and disadvantages of using Super Soil\" class=\"wp-image-170173\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.gbthegreenbrand.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/image-6.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.gbthegreenbrand.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/image-6-300x135.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.gbthegreenbrand.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/image-6-768x346.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>One of the advantages of growing using the Super Soil technique is that, although preparing the substrate takes a little longer and more effort, once ready<strong>, you won\u2019t have to worry about your plants\u2019 nutrition during their cultivation process<\/strong>. Although you still need to keep an eye, as there is still a risk of deficiencies and over fertilization.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This method uses only organic ingredients, therefore, the mixture is full of  macro and micro nutrients. This will provide the plant with <strong>nicer and smoother flavors and aromas<\/strong>, which doesn\u2019t happen with chemical products.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Super Soil is fully organic and suitable for indoor and outdoor grows. It also <strong>protects plants against external pathogens<\/strong> due to the onset of multiple <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gbthegreenbrand.com\/blog\/beneficial-bacteria-for-cannabis\/\">beneficial fungi, insects and bacteria<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Because there are no chemical products involved, the <strong>roots won\u2019t need flushing<\/strong>. Growers can totally forget about this tedious task.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Disadvantages\"><\/span>Disadvantages<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Super Soil\u2019s greatest disadvantage is that it is not suitable for all sorts of crops. Applying it to <strong>big surfaces<\/strong> would require an enormous amount of substrate and preparing the mixture would take too long.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This method <strong>requires good planning.<\/strong> You need to prepare the mixture between one and two months before starting to grow. Which means you can\u2019t just decide to use this system a few days before planting the seeds. You also need to know the exact amount of Super Soil that needs preparation and to buy all the necessary products before starting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Lastly, you need to let the plants develop and choose the nutrients they prefer; instead of just providing them with what the grower wants in order to force them to grow strong and potent. The final results will most likely be very tasty and of great quality; although the <strong>growth cycle will be slower <\/strong>and the <strong>yield will be less impressive.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u00a0[ppgbo products=&#8221;5090,6046,7175&#8243; language=&#8221;en&#8221;]<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, as you acquire experience and refine the Super Soil technique, you\u2019ll be able to obtain amazing results.
