Does it look like this one?, it's an old pic of mine using MG. Notice all of the crab clawing leaves, it was my last time using that crap.

Try and find some Promix, then transplant into a better medium.

So any time the plants dont get the right amount of nutrients.. I can call the medium theyre in, crap?? I was using promix and had problems so that must be crap dirt too lol j/k ... I always use General Hydroponics FloraDuo and FloraMirco and I never have problems with nutrient deficiency..

Hell I was embarrassed to even post that shitty plant. I have long since been making my own brand of Promix, which is better and cheaper once you figure out the proper amount of lime to add. For nutes I simply mix in Epsoma Plant-tone for both veg and flower, then use molasses every other watering almost up till' chop.

This one was from last summer using this method:

Thanks. I had to do a lot of training, when it started to outgrow my space.:shock:
I'm just glad I didn't do 2 plants like I had originally planned. LOL

Big bump. Hey Bakatare. How often do you feed? Do you use MG 20-20-20? How much per gallon? Lastly, do you check your ph of your water going in? Thank you so much. The thread lives on.

Also feed your plant according 2 the size ok also I.D.H your grow meaning inspect, look 4 deficiencys, an monitor the height of your plants.

Hello. Yes you can use miracle grow potting soil mix just remember 2 cut the calmag out and just use the flo- trio nutrients . also make sure that you feed your plant according 2 the size alsi make sure you are feeding them at 6.5-6.8. When vegn feed from 6.0-6.5 when flowering 6.5-6.8 thats just me. Your yield want be as big but you will net something at least a couple or a few oz. Im launchn a video series soon about grown auto-flowers in mirale grow potting soil. The name of the plat form will be called the 420 underground auto -flo series an i will be shown my cannibus family how 2 cultivate cannibus in a grow clost at a budget price without all of the major equiptment. It will be from the trap house. Coming soon hope i heped you out peace

Regular miracle grow soil will burn your plants.

I see a bunch of people say this but can you tell me why? My regular MG potting mix says it has less than 1% of n-p-k in a time release. Isnt less than 1% like nothing? Why would that burn the plants? I see people using much higher ratios than less than 1%. Just a bit confused!

About 20 years ago, I seen a lot of people successfully use MG. As years went by it seemed like everyone switched to the organic soils. A lot of people did complain about the time released nutrients. A lot of those people were also the ones that were brainwashed by hydroshops to buy THEIR concentrated nutrients and line of snake oils. I admit, I was one of those people. I never used MG but IMO if you're growing a plant long enough, those time released nutrients in MG should get used up. If you have a strain that you think may be sensitive to the MG soil, you can always cut the MG with a promix. I also bet MG is cleaner of bugs than FFOF. When I used FFOF I would get fungus gnats and those damn bloody root aphids. I prefer making my own organic soils myself but I'm also all for MG since I have seen it work.

I also like the idea of MG for mother plants. nice to just add water and be done.
