Hi im planting for the first time this spring, ive got 3, 5 gallon buckets (with holes in the bottom for drainage) and i will be putting about a 2 inch layer of rocks at the bottom of each bucket for even better drainage. I will then fill up the bucket the rest of the way with (preferably organic) soil and either perlite or vermiculite to aerate the soil.

My questions are:

1. Is my plan a solid one? What would you change or do differently

2. What is a good soil for cannabis (preferably organic)? One that comes ready out of the bag without having to add anything extra except maybe perlite would be nice. The soil MUST be available stores such as walmart or farm king or something (commercially available), just something i can get my hands on without having to order.

3. What are good nutes for Vegatative Growth? i was originally going to use miracle gro orchid food (30-10-10 npk ratio) but that seems strong and i dont want to burn my plants, also miracle gro just isnt very good for cannabis. MUST BE COMMERCIALLY AVAILABLE.

4. What are good nutes for Flowering stage? Also must be commercially available

5. Would you recommend using superthrive at least once? What have you heard about superthrive? I heard it does wonders for weed

6. Do you recommend topping or fimming?

7. What parts of the plant do i supercrop?


PLEASE ANSWER ANY OR ALL OF THESE QUESTIONS! Im just trying to grow some top shelf quality cannabis for myself and i have sooooooo many questions lol:stoned:
