theres is bro, i use mg nutes, they work fine in moderation, eventually youvwill need nutes
soil can only hold for so long, or till the plant eats it up

i been using tap water .but couple times i got water from the fridge(i let it get to room temp before use) it has a filter built in like a brita or something.u think thats better than the tap water for growing? or should my cheap ass just go get a ph test kit lol

I have mine in Fox Farm Ocean Forest soil vegged for about a month. You really don't need in extra nute's but i did make up a nice organic tea and feed it to her only one time and she is doing great ,good luck to you keep us updated

well the main plant is in a 1/2 gallon tea carton.i fig in month i could transplant it into a 2 gallon and it would have new soil to feed off of .but i will look into nutes for sure

to all other noobs do not use pop bottles lol. i thought they would be good since they were flexable.i just transplanted 3 of the seedlings to bigger pot.one of the seedlings had a root ball at the very bottem and when i went to transfer it the root ball ripped off :( .least i have 6 to work with lol

Taller isn't where you want to be. Keep them as short as possible. They will shoot up after the switch to flowering. I messed up this time and now they have out grown my closet.
