Soil and nutrient questions

A question from a fellow grower:

“Hello, I’ve tried growing regular seeds before but turned out some were male and the one the I did get as female turned Hermie. I’m still relatively new at this and decided I would try with your fertilizers and your seeds this time. My question I have is what soil do you recommend to use for the auto flowering seeds I purchased since I plan on also using the fertilizer. I didn’t want to get soil that was too rich or not rich enough in nutrients to combine with the fertilizer from your shop. I am also a little confused as to how to use the fertilizer exactly. For example this says to mix with1 gallon of water for the seedling, but then how do I give it to the seedling, I don’t think you are saying to give the seedling 1 gallon of water that seems a little extreme. Maybe you can give me some more detail or guidance on this part?”

No soil with time release nutes those are bad. I use fox farm happy frog for seedling and then moving it to ocean forest when moving to a 5 gallon. You don’t want to use nutes till the Very first set of leaves turns yellow and falls off. Shouldnt need anything for first few weeks. I also use fox farm trio nutes with some cal mag nutes you kinda need it when using fox farm

Hello -

I’m new growing Marijuana myself.

I purchased a complete Grow kit my self from:

I purchased their 5 gallon Grow kit.

You can see my progress on this forum.

It’s very easy.

They give you a coupon to buy seeds at, I Love Growing Marijuana. Instead of paying $89, I paid $54 for five seeds.

Their support team is great both at A Pot For Pot and at ILGM.

Using their grow kit is also a great learning experience.

From there I learned to use Super Soil, Myco Chum, a premium microbe food for when the plant starts flowering, Great White Mycorrhizae to boost Root grow to flourish, Neem oil with a detergent for a natural insecticide.

From there I browsed through Amazon and discovered Happy Frog which is a living potting soil with perlite and Mycorrhizae added among other good things.

I discovered a one pound concentrated Super Soil, that really stinks with instructions to mix it with a top soil the first third of the fabric pot, then fill the rest of the pot with top soil. In my case I used Happy Frog.

But do start with the grow kit from A Pot For Pot… It’s a very good basic start.
