30% Premium Top Soil ( its the only soil i can find with no nutrients in it...)
maybe scotts or schultz or anything i can find at lows,hd, walmart, or taget.....All the potting soils had nuts for like 2 months to 9 months.....
30% candian peat moss
30% perlite
10% worm casting
some dolomatic lime for soil and peat moss..Ph levels
I plan on using alaskan fish fert for veg maybe with something else i just dont know what?

Soil and tranplanting Questions
Do not use top soil, and I really don't like peat moss. It doesn't get any better than this: 4 parts premium potting soil with one part perlite. So simple, so effective. Your plants will love you for it, and maybe even take you upstairs for a nightcap.
