Soil will work and you have it so might as well use it for this grow and go coco next grow.
Coco is higher yeild but again your lighting is your limiting factor right now.
Mix it with 30% perlite though or it will be to dense.
Go with the roots original on the top 1/4 with your super soil on the bottom 3/4, but also dig the center out a bit so you can get the roots deeper in the center.
The tap root is going to drive down in the pot as soon as it can and thus you donât want really hot soil down there to fast. Thatâs why the core technique is emoloyed.
As far as how big the pot should be it depends on if itâs an auto or a photo and if you think your environment is good enough to make use of a 5 gallon pot. Personally ide go 5 gallon as well.

Dont forget if you get coco youâll probably need to rinse it( to remove coco peat(super fine particles)) and buffer it (to remove salts that bind to calcium and magnesium)

Ok so are u saying use this mix on next time. Or wen I transplant now. Or are u saying fill pot up not n ix this on top.
Second u saying 1/4 of roots n then 3/4 of super soil on bottom
Or u saying 3/4 root n then 1/4 super soil.
Cause I kno it less super n more soil right just making sure causes i think I kno wat u saying
Or maybe cause im think mixing in one pot n I think u talking bout like all the soil together. Rather then how im thinking like mixing one pot each.
@GreenSnek you donât have, buy pre washed as and buffed coco coir in a bag⌠Less hassle.
@Queensly
Mix it in a totes, layer it in your pot.
When I did ocean forest I did 3/4 with the top 1/4 happy frog.
It depends how super the super soil is really.
The more super soil you have the longer before you feed nutrients but your light soil should be there because until the plants 3 weeks old it doesnât need much food.

All depends on your local stores and what that cost is to you to be honest I get 50 gallon bag for 30$ Canadian so like 15$usd.
Itâs soooo much easier than washing fricking coco in my house when itâs -40c outside lol

I live in a us state where its not exactly ok to grow so I donât have any specialized stores around here I got a good deal on a 16$ brick of coco that made about 15-20 gallons of coco(wet) that i just rinsed today and currently buffering canât wait to see how well it compares to my peat blend I used during current grow cocoâs pretty dang expensive in the u.s. for some reason

If you get a brick your probably going to have to soak and wash it and then buffer it with cal mag but they may sell bricks that you donât have to Iâm not exactly sure I buy it by the bag.
@GreenSnek itâs a great medium though you might be supprized what hardware/garden centers have or a nursery. They may be able to get it in.
@Queensly those all look the same to. Me and organic in my mind means itâs still salty with no cal mag in it.
