I need a couple of different soil mixture recommendations.
Thanx :jointsmile:
my personal mix isnt measured but i can tell you the ingredients
sphagnum peat moss
organic compost
worm castings
sand
perlite
vermiculite
and medium red lava rock
it drains well and has enough nutrients to get you through about 3 weeks of veg before feeding is required
same as above but no sand, no lava rock. Everything seems to come in a bag to make proper proportions.
1.5 cu ft. of peet moss
40 lb bag composted cow manure
20 lb bag worm castings
small bags (about .5 cu ft) each perlite and vermiculite.
Shovelhandle
quick question, is it possible my plant is root bound already?

and if soo is it bad to change into a diff soil? im using peatmoss and pearlite about 2:1 ratio i kno i kno, not great of soil to use for veg but wanted to mix it up, or should i continue to use peatmoss and add wormcastings and some sort of compost. would this in any way shock the plant? Im having trouble keeping up the PH with this soil. Any suggestions would be awsome! thx guys
Soobie, r u using peatmoss and perlite only??
60% Potting Soil, 15%Perlite, 10%Sand(builder's sand), 10%worm castings and 5% Premix
Keeps a good ph level all grow, its what I am using as well
u could just go buy some ocean forest. from what i understand that is a good soil that can be used for the whole gro, probably could mix it 3:1 ocean forest to perlite. the ocean forest itself has a hole bunch of good stuff in it already, it cost about 20$ for 1.5' cubic.
m.b.a, i seen the same video you got that info from where can i get a premix with 12-6-6 from and the worm castings and the sand too.
Thanx
What do people think of using
60% promix
35% perlite
5% organic bone meal
any ideas I wanted to try this but wasn't sure if this was a ok mix or not.
yups :( but i just picked up some organic compost! and some worm castings so lookin to re plant soon! but do i really needa wait one whole week for new soil to be ready?Quote:
