Hey there folks,

I've been lurking around for a few months and after gathering the majority of my supplies I come down with a couple of simple questions. It's been asked before I know but searching hasn't answered my questions clearly. Before I ask here is what I have for my setup:

- Collection of random bag seed from middies to a couple headies
- A 2' wide x4' deep x8' tall closet for vegging and flowering
- A second 2x4x8 closet with shop light and 4 vegging compact fluros for seedlings to prevent burning and lower power usage
- HTG Supply 600W digital ballast, hood, HPS and MH bulb.
- Bushel of medium grade vermiculite
- Bushel of perlite
- Bale of peat moss
- 2 40lb bags of composted manure w/ humus from Home Depot(idea from Stinky)
- 5lb Dolomitic lime
- 2.5lb Hydrated lime (from mycology)
- Fox Farms liquid nutes (Grow, Bloom, Tiger)
- Liquid Ph testing kit and ph strips
- Half a large bag of MG Moisture Control (from mycology)

Soon to have (when I can afford it):

- Micro nutes (need suggestions, Superthrive, Liquid Karma, and any others ya'll might suggest)
- Venting soon to be (Home depot inline fan and carbon/kitty litter filter).
- Ph Up/Down solution

Ok so heres the simple questions:
- Creating a soil mix for germination to the point of seedlings, what would be a suitable mix for germination (I soak 24ish hours then sow in soil), this is the question I just can't get a definitive answer on
- With what I have, what would you guys an gals suggest for a soil mix post seedlings with the macro nutes and a couple micro nutes?
- Any other basic supplies that anyone can recommend (basic and essential, run my budget towards the end of its rope)

Thanks for the help everyone,

Potsy
