Soil is drying out

[JohnHerer]

I just put my seed in yesterday under 65w = 500w fluro light. I have a fan next to my pot.

Description of soil

This soil comes in a sturdy plastic bag that contains 8 dry quarts (8.8 L) with a net weight of 3.8 pounds (1.7 kg). The soil is a light mix; not dense. Looking into the bag, I see a few specs of gray-white in the brown soil with a few tiny inch-long bits that resemble pieces of shredded bark. The back of the bag says the soil is a blend of Canadian sphagnum peat moss, perlite (the gray-white bits), o 16d0 rganic materials and MultiCote slow-release plant food. There is an additional note on the package that says the â??organic materialsâ?� come from some of the following: reed-sedge peat, composted forest products, or composted rice hulls. There is also a wetting agent and lime in the soil.

This soil contains 0.08% nitrogen (for green leaves and stems), 0.12% phosphorus (for strong roots, flowers and fruit), 0.08% potassium (for flowering and fruiting as well as reducing plant stress and disease).

can't go wrong w/peat and perlite.....the only thing you may have to do is add a little more perlite depending on how much is already in there.... about 30% is pretty much average of what people use.

and smoke is right....no nutes for 2 weeks ... test your ph too

Now is it just the very top of the soil or is it dry a few inches down? The top will dry out but don't over water.
