Who am I to listen to.

I think that Ronnie is about 80% correct. FoxFarm is a Very, Very good Soil. and perlite should be 30-40%. but in Veg, (N) is the thing that is most important, at least I have learned. So higher (N) then others.

Also, do not out 1/2 strength Nuts in, then go to 100% next.. Nut Burn is easy to do. Start out at week two or so with 25% stength, and work it up from there 25% at a time.. go slow. get the feel.

From what I have read Nitrogen is most important during vegging.

God luck on you grow.. :jointsmile:
Chabnoc Reviewed by Chabnoc on . Soil and Nute mix, how should I start newbie here so sorry for kicking a down horse already i want to build my own soil instead of having to change it all the time and also get a basis of what basic nutes i should be using. i am using foxfarm ocean forest right now with about a 30% perlite mix, mixed in with some 0-7-0 guano. my nute supply is maxsea 16-16-16 granulars but havent used it yet. what would be a good guideline to building this up and the proper nutes before any specific problems arise.
