If you havent all ready put the seed in the soil, you have two choices. Of course choice #1 is to just go get new soil (Miracle-Grow, Black Gold, ect.) and your choice #2 is to add lots of perlite to the soil you have. Its up to you but I would recomend takeing the soil back, tell them its shit and they should stop selling it and buy some new soil of the names I listed. I'd also recomend not to get timed released for seedlings. Thats my input on this and good luck on your grow. Peace
