I know that blueberry isn't the greatest strain for beginners, but I happened to get some free seeds and I would like to give it a shot. Anyways I am planning a small grow in a closet and I would like to get some things straight, I have read a bunch of grow guides and still I am not too sure on how things work. So I would like to get some advice from experienced green thumbs, and before anybody decides to criticize my questions I want you to know that I understand the basics of growing, I just want to make sure I get it right cuz good stuff is really hard to come by around here(I am so tired of dirt weed!), and these potential plants mean a lot to me. I just want to make sure they grow up to be pretty and plentiful.
1. What size pots should I use for the plants?
2. I plan on using soil from wal-mart that is suppose to feed plants for up to three months, is there any way this soil will last till harvest time without giving the plants fertilizer or nutrients?
3. If it the soil won't work that way, what type of nutrients do I need to buy and where do I get them?
4. I plan on using a 400 watt fluorescent light for at least four plants in a small closet layered with reflectix insulation, will that work or do I need to hatch a new plan?
5. Does the strain blueberry require any special growing methods or care?
Any advice will be much appreciated.
