That sounds a little overkill. Are you sure that the nutrients are in the right balance? Just from looking at it I think it might be a little bit much. Why not just pick one tek and try that out?

I don't know because I've never tried that recipe, why don't you make one bag and inoculate it and see if it works?

doesn't sound good to me. where's the pH adjustment?
black kow and substrate bags don't work so well together. not at 20% anyway. field aged, dried and shredded horse manure is what you want. do what it takes to get it, or order some.
and where's your info on water content? it's very important to have the right percentage of water.

i did change the recipe a little bit when i started mixing it. 4 quarts of vermiculite 3 quarts of hydrated coco coir 3 quarts of coffee grinds 2 quarts black kow 1.5 quarts of wbs 1.5 quarts of gypsum i am not 100% sure on how much water i added but i know it was between 2 and 3 quarts. this was between 4 bags. i didnt balance the ph because i thought it was mainly to prevent contams from growing and the only time contams would be introduced was during inocculation, so as long as i did a clean innocculation i would be good to go. is there another reason i should balance the ph? does this mix seem better to you?
