Catbuds and Ranger - thanks so much for all the good info. I am making notes. I haven't tried pro mix organic - that's something I should look into. Also saw good review of Roots Organic. Will give them a try next go-round. The idea of putting some Big Bloom into the soil before planting seedlings is a good one when using soil-less mediums. I used Grow Big and Tiger Bloom last grow and am very happy with them. Adding worm-castings seems to be a good nutrient to add too.

I completely agree with watching where you buy your soil. The first soil I bought was full of gnats and really screwed my plants up early on in my last grow. The Ocean Forest I bought later at a horticultural store was much better. Have you ever tried the Light Warrior soil by Fox Farms?

Sorry if I'm slow in answering here, my computer is on the fritz and I think I may have to buy a new one. (ArrGgg!) They used to last longer, didn't they? This one's only 4 years old.

Love you guys! You're great!
giggletwig Reviewed by giggletwig on . Adventures in Cloning.... help please? Hi guys! I am trying to clone some plants from my (large and bushy) new babies who are 3 wks. old. I've followed cloning instructions, did the cuts, the scraping, dipped in Clonex and put in pots to root. I'm a real cheapskate, so what I've done is put the clones in coco in solo cups, and am using plastic baggies over the tops as domes (they fit pretty good) with a stick in the cup to hold the bag off the plant (read about this method on another site). I have four little clones and Rating: 5
