Soil (pH) Help?

[amphiboius]

Hi ppl, this is my first post and as-well my first time growing Marijuana. So i've been looking up the most Information about indoor growing as i can' and i feel "Kinda" confident about starting my grow but then again im not sure (well i atleast hope all goes well) but thats why im here. The space im going to make my grow room is my closet and its very small' (with-out exact measurement) i'd say it's about 6 X 6' i no its small, but i have no choice really because i have a wife if u no what i mean. lol. However i think im just about ready to go i juts cant find a SOIL with the pH about 6.5 or 7.5, so could some one please help me by just telling me a good name brand Soil to use that i can find in a store near me, if it matters what kinda plant im groing well i have ordered online 10 "Northern Light" seeds and they will be my first grow cause i herd they where good for beginers

Bye the way, Must the soil contain "Humus" in it? and i also heard that Eco-Grow is the bes Fertilizer for Marijuana plants is this true ?

Thx for your time ppl and any and eveyones help will be much appreciated

quality potting soil i have tested has always been 6.5-7 and some have it listed near the 'ingrediants' section on the bag. humus is just rotted forest products and too much is not good. cannabis likes a sandy-loamy soil with good drainage...iow, it hates sitting in wet ground constantly and must have good drainage to thrive. i use the best potting soil available and blend with cactus potting soil plus a little perlite...

it's just as important to check your water ph too...if not moreso.

Hey thanx Man, This will be a bit easer now that i no it dosent realy need Humus, but umm' you say you use "Quality" potting soil, is Quality the name of the soil you buy??

GO to your local greenhouse / plant stand. Do not go to Home Depot or Lowes...go to a real nursery.

Most nurseries start their pants in the perfect medium....just ask what they use.

I found a nursery that uses PRO MIX...so far so good.

Real light, airy and spongy.

PH 6.5

Any nursery that grows their own plants have something that will work.

Good luck!
