Hi Roland

check out Top 10 Marijuana Pot Growing Tips | Tips for Growing Indoor Marijuana, Cannabis, Ganja, Weed and Pot Plants (http://www.weedsthatplease.com/growtips.htm) for some soil tips. i have used something similar to the recipe for soil (subbing manure for the bat sh*t and seaweed) with decent results. i'm also trying a Batmix (premixed soil) available from any grow shop.
I wouldn't worry too much, once the soil has good drainage, you should be fine.
Happy growing :hippy:

Hi Roland

i'd give the little babies a minimum of 18hrs, i've also seen recommendations of going 24hrs for the first few weeks. I ladies will be okay as long as they have good light and ventilation.
Maybe some one else could share their experiences of LEDs. I have only seen them available on the interweb.:glugglug:
