A clone flowered t 10" with minimal pinching if any needs 3 gallons,and if you do FIM etc on the plants figure in a larger pot for a bushier plant.
Awesome thanks alot, your plants just look so good. I really didnt know that soil plants could look so good. Now that i have been doing more soil grows, i dont know if its just me or not but it seems alot easier. I hardly ever run into any problems so i've decided to do more soil grows until i totally understand the mj!

Anyway my local garden store makes its own composted soil mix and i was wondering if you think it would be better to make my own or give them a try. I used the stuff to grow tomatoes this summer and they were absolutely beautiful. She says her mix is humus, chicken manure and feathers, peat and lime(i know im leaving out some stuff because that list of ingredients was longer) . She makes a very large amount of it because alot of people around here likes the stuff so i think alot of the ingredients arent evenly spread.

I want to give it a try but i know how alot of mj growers like to have total control of the nutes there plants recieve. So do you think this stuff is worth giving a try or should i just mix my own?!
GDS StonerBoy Reviewed by GDS StonerBoy on . I'm bored, so here's a couple pictures. Here's my clone and male storage closet overflowing into the dining room. I have not eated a meal in there in MONTHS. The males are looking kind of scraggly. There's also some peppers in there. They look a little under the weather right now too. The last 2 pics show my basic propagation setup and a fully rooted MTF plant. Yup, that's a Tabasco pepper tree in the background. Thanks for the pepper plant Demeter! Rating: 5
