I like easy, cheesy, so I use (take a deep breath, because I'm going to be hammered for what I use in growing MJ), Miracle Grow Moisture Control Soil. I've done several grows with this soil, so I've figured out the path for growing Cannabis in this medium.

I use 5 gallon Smart Pots. I do not clone and only grow from seed. Once the seeds have germinated, I plant them in 1 quart plastic pots under a CFL for about a week. Then I transplant into the 5 gallon SP's for the remainder of the grow, under 2 150 watt HPS lights. Because Miracle Grow soil has built in nutrients, I don't use any nutes during veg, which is the first 3-4 weeks.

After switching over to flower, I slowly begin using Miracle Grow Flower Bloom nutes (1/2 strength, once per week). 4 weeks into flower, I begin using Blackstrap Molasses along with the bloom nutes. I use nutrients all the way to chop, chop, and I don't flush.

As you can see, I get great results. I'm going to get a 1/2 pound (or more) from this lady.

Only forum parrots and complete noobs that don't know any better will hammer you for using miracle grow. The fact is it's like any other fertilizer providing the macro's and some of the micros your plant needs. It uses a bit more urea than I like but it works fine as you have just seen first hand.

I always read never to use miracle grow, but isn't it the exact same thing as using a multitude of nutrients from the local shop? If you use it on the plants you eat in the garden, how is it not safe for growing MJ? I'm just a curious new learner!

You don't notice a slight chemical taste without flushing? I flushed for one week with my outdoor grow last summer and made a hell of a difference. I used st-green soil from lowes and MG tomato food. Grow journal is here https://www.rollitup.org/grow-journals/699324-my-first-cannabis-grow.html

might be lengthy but I try to go into as much detail as I can for people to learn from.
