What is the difference between Miracle-Gro and other commercially available
fertilizers and hydroponics nutrients?
Most of the fertilizers readily available are very general purpose mixes
that do not work well for all types of plants.
Most commercially available fertilizers are meant for fertilizing plants
grown in soil and do not contain all the necessary trace elements.
Spectialy fertilizers contain all those trace elements, and are also made
to be very soluble so that the plants can easily uptake the nutrients from
the watering solution. Those other fertilizers will work to grow plants
but they cannot compare to the results you will experience with our
nutrients. Most commercially available fertilizers are like junk food for
your plants giving you quick results that do not last very long.
If you want to grow right then use the right nutrients.
Miracle Grow is not for dichotomous short day resin producing plants.
Tomatoes & flowers are not in the same group as Marijuana plants.
That is why you do not use Miracle Grow or anything that has the name
Miracle Grow in it for Marijuana period.
Indoor grows is where the problems come in.Quote:

If you dont overdue it (Miricale Grow is the #1 Misused Fert in the world)and have good drainage a good MG feeding then a drain feeding will work great on indoor grows.
I will say that this is the case for ANY nuts at all if you dont have good drainage and you just always add nuts and never flush them out with pure H2O then your soil will become acidic and kill your hard work.
As far as the soil it sucks I didnt know any better and I used it many many times when I started with much failure.
It is only after I started using other soils I became successful in grows I would say the MG soil was to blame as I do everything the same as I did when I started with a few tweaks as the years passed of course.

Thats why you should go organic. Organics improve soil structure and microbateria that break the complex nutrients from the organic material into usable nutrients for the plant. So it feeds as it breaks down which is over a long period of time for if you use organics to don't have to fertilize for a long time and this prevents over/underfertilizing. If you are growing outside consider organics...

I use plain potting soil with no fertlizers added ... nowadays, I use straight Kellogg's AMEND, made with compost, rice hulls, etc ... anyway, after my sprouts are a week old, I start spraying them once a week with Miracle-Gro Miracid, 30-10-10, and a shot of Superthrive ... I probably cause too much humidity, but I foliar-spray every night with plain water, and once a week with the nutrient mixture ... my plants seem to like it,(or I like the time with my plants ), but it seems to work out ... when going into flowering, I will change to Miracle Gro Bloom,( I forget the numbers, but optimal for flowering ) ... about 2 weeks before harvest, I spray with plain water only ... no taste that I personally notice, I don't claim to be a 'taster' sort of smoker, I just want the high ! ... my plants have been extremely healthy from seed to smoke, so I can't say anything against Miracle-Gro products ... :smokin:Quote:
