Rollitup

Yes but you if you want to ensure your plant will stay healthy the entire run use a clean water source and add in some worm castings and a slow release fertilizer before you start vegging them.

It is better to transplant once or twice than to try and go the full grow in a 5gal. Use Jobes organic spikes for bloom phase; they feed for 8 week. I never mainline so I have no idea. Using fabric containers virtually eliminates root bind.

Charlie's compost chicken manure is great fertilizer. Ewc is the key to sustaining plants long term.

Thanks bud.

New pro mix soil

Transplant in pro mix ans leave grow

You can use any decent organic soil as it is to start your plants but if you want to avoid needing to add anything later on in the grow add fertilizer and compost.

I will probably build my own after a while based off the Coots mix, but a little different. I'm just not in the spot now to drop the extra money, atm. I'd rather not use ffof b/c of it's short life but that is what I have along with some Rootwise mycrobe, Build a soil craft blend as well as BAS top dress and some EWC.

Figured I could top dress and tea it up, I just was not positive when to start some of that or if it would be too much, ya know?

It would be nice if I could amend and feed it enough to make it a full living soil.

You can; soil doesn't deplete. It just becomes inactive microbially. I've been using the same ffof soil (among other brands) for years just re-amend with ewc and ferts.

Go check out my thread in the organic section called dick dies dank. There's a book listed you should read true living organics by the Rev. Has everything you need to go water only. Compost is the key

BAS is a waste of your money. You can build your own mix much cheaper than BAS but amending an existing mix like ffof or what have you is def more cost effective. You don't need everything at once just start with what you have and squire stuff as you go

That's aquire not squire wtf autocorrect...start up a worm bin and you'll have free ewc to charge up your soil for life. I basically feed my plants otchen scraps. Cost = zero

Kitchen scraps ugh

I have started a compost in the yard but it still has a way to go.
