just thought I'd share my lovely day playing with soil. Had an extra seedling due to planting too many.....worried about another runt like the last seedling and of course now have an extra. Figured I'd put it in soil.....because soil is so easy....and so wonderful....and anyone can do it......what BULLSHIT!!:wtf:

Had my pot all filled up with clean, new potting soil and perlite....run water through to test ph....ooops won't drain....water just sits there......drill more holes....nope....no difference. Then while fucking around with it I dropped it and spilled mud everywhere which took me an hour to clean off of EVERYTHING....the floor, tables, me etc etc.. Don't know how many trees they'll have to cut now to equal the paper towels I had to use in the name of doing things naturally.

So move outside with the flies and heat and start over....more perlite....nope....less perlite....nope......add some rocks.....nope...the lousy shit simply won't drain no matter what. Keep in mind this is the same soil that drains too well with my onions.....imo the whole deal just wants to fuck with me. On pot number five...also with new different potting soil.....it drains ok with simply potting soil....no perlite or anything else added. Wow only three hours spent screwing around with this and the seedling is still nowhere near the soil. Oh but look, lol, it's now too heavy to work with with strictly soil in it so can't use it anyway....

Yeah, I'm on to this and tossing my hydro setup asap.....

Ps,....Still either going to have to setup and extra hydro bucket for this MK fem seedling (which I really didn't want to do and still don't) or destroy it which is like throwing away $$ imo. Soil here i come......
