Quick Soil Question

[Lit Up]

Ok, I picked up some Miracle Gro Soil today and then I thought i remembered reading that you shouldnt use Miracle Gro. Anyone got the lowdown, will it be ok to use this soil?? Appreciate it.

i wouldnt use it due to the already added nutes in the soil, i prefer clean organic soil with nothing added to it.

[puddlecruzier]

i have never used it myself. plenty of people i know use it and love it. you wont have to add any nutes for a while.

MG soil also has a base PH of 8 so be wary of that when using it

Another one, should i buy both seeding soil and potting soil or can potting soil just be used from the start?

[invision]

regular potting soil is fine, can you find better soil just incase this doesnt work out?

[Lit Up]

yeah i was up at Ace today and i just grabbed a bag then i remembered i read something about it, ill prob just exchange it tomorrow or something might even give it a shot and change some of the variables ie soil and see which one performs better. first grow and more of a test run ya know?

[invision]

test runs are good, but i dont want you pissed at yourself if it went south because of the nutes in the soil, i say if your going to do it atleast do it right so you know where your mistakes lay.

add some perlite to make the soil more aerated if you want
