Hyponex potting soil... Any one else use it?

Its was like 10$ for 2cu feet. Does have time released nutes. Added about 20% perlite and picked all the big bark/wood chips out. I've had plants in it after transplanting into 5gal buckets b4 flowering. So far there all are looking 100 times better than my first grow and I'm using cheap soil.. I've been using nothin but water.. reason I'm asking is I'm out of town for week and a buddy is watchin plants n I'm just worried lol... grow store I like hour n half away from me and I don't have the time with my new job. And with time release nutes means I will not flush in the last week of flowering correct???

The time release nutes will be fine for the first few weeks of your plants life...
You will need to add some NPK after the little girls show growth, and are fully rooted.
Friend involved... First rule of grow, never tell... you'll have to live with that...
If you must just have him water, show him what they look like dry, then water them with him, and hope for best...
IDK... good luck...
If plants look weird/wtf when you get home in a week, you'll need to play 20 questions with friend...
PS I'd hide all bug sprays/nutes/weed killers/ you have in house while friend is around... he might want to have some fun...

Lol he don't have to do anything except look at the temps. An he is very close and smokes more pot then anyone I know...as long as I come back and none of my buds are cut off ill be ok lol. But I can still see the lil balls (time relased nutes) that pop when watering... if I flush 5/6 weeks from now all will pop and it won't be good lol..

And ill be back Sunday night just watered on fri.

Don't worry about it then... your friend don't even need to check .... ha...
Yea, and he has a friend that smokes more than him, and he has a friend... and I heard there's a party at your house while you are gone...
Haaa....
Flushing... I can not help you there... I don't flush, I don't over nute, so no need to flush...
The soil does have NPK in it, but check package...
trace amounts= .05/.03/.08 or something like that, then you added perilite, which lowers/raises your NPK [check perilite bag] and you still have only trace NPK...
Say I use nutes with a N-30/P-10/K-10 on my plants in veg...
Your soil has .05/.03/.08 see the difference ?
You'll need to add nutes soon....yes 6 months of slight soil feeding... is not enough

True..true... Ill give a 1/4th next watering. N go from there I guess. Nothin that cant be fixed if it burns a lil or somthin thx bro.
