Grow Medium and correct fert. strenght
So this is going to be my first grow coming up. I have read a lot of books and watched a lot and most have told me to go with a soiless mix without NPK so that it is a fresh slate. i was thinking 1/3 peatmoss 1/3 vermiculite 1/3 perlite with some dolomite lime mixed in. now i know that bud likes more nitrogenous ferts, but people say that equal NPK works fine for veg.
what im wondering is should i go with a 30-10-10, an 18-18-18 or a 12-12-12? if i go with one of the equal NPK's, should i add a Nitrogen only fert to it? (blood meal), these are the main ferts my local nursery carries.
thanks, i appreciate the help :jointsmile:
