MG is shitty soil though, you're better off going with something like Ocean Forest by foxfarms if you want soil.

Remember, pH'ing water is important too, you should order a starter kit like this
pH Control Kit at GardenWaves

Your plants will thank you for it. pH'ing is a simple but crucial step to ensuring happy plants. If the pH is out of a certain range, it locks up nutrients causing deficiencies even though the nutes may actually be present. They just aren't available to the plant unless the pH is right. (in soil 6-6.5 is good)
