I did my last grow in soil for the first time last grow .I used all the same hydro nutes as i always do and had no probs.The only thing i can add is that if you use a good quality potting mix it will have a lot of nutes already in it so use strait water every second or third watering and back the feed of a lot earlyer than u would normally when growing in a hydo medium...

you should use a soil with no nutes like ProMix. I am using 3 different types and the ProMix is the best.... at least out of my 3 types

nutes are nutes... I have found that you might not need all the additives... you just need to research the nutes you want to try

I guess I should finish reading the rest of the posts.
I was going to say the same thing.
It's about control puff, I want to be the one feeding the plants when they need it. By leaving the nutrients to some dirt product you get only an average nutrient feeding for thousands of different strains of plants people grow. Not one of which is marijuana so you do not get plant specific feeding.
Marijuana is a resin producing plant and not many other plants people grow indoor is for the purpose of resin production. Marijuana has a very specific nutrient requirement for the plant to grow to full potential.
