I have two 30 gallon pots that have barky soil and my girls are barly starting to flower.
Should i transplant them with better soil?
Or is there a way to use what i got? ''I really cant afford to transplant them into some other soil''

Never been in this situation before i tryed to cut costs and i payed the price in the end I suggest anyone not to use cheap soil or end up like me with fuked up soil and stunted growth. Take note i always used foxfarm soil and tryed to cut my soil with ''kellog all purpose soil'' 3 cubic feet with one 2 cubic feet happy frog potting soil

Are they the same strain? I say transplant one since the budget is small. Deal with the other one with whatever techniques are at your disposal and monitor the difference. What you'll learn from the two plants will help you later.

yeah......I have one plant in some barky soil.....the bark makes it wayyyyy too acidic....Ph is like 5.9 or some shit......it is just one plant though. all the rest are in the ground or in Kellogg Patio Plus........You may just have to work with what you have bro. Don't listen to anybody unless you have seen them have success with the product first....and even then, get a second opinion before forging ahead.

yeah that fool told me to use kellog all purpose soil and i called him yesterday and he said he is having the same problem and i was like whata dumb fuk. So now i have to put more nitrogen and risk the shock of nute lock up because the bark soaks up all the nuts and it releses some time so now i have to watch out

yeah i already know now..The fact that i took his word for it fucked up my year i learned a big lesson brother and i guess people now days are not about there word because i use to use only foxfarm soil and tryed to cut some corners with kellog all purpose soil. I cut my yield by 75% just with those to 30 gallon pots which are my biggest pots by the way with only four 20 gallon pots

yeah......kellogg doesn't provide the nutrients foxfarm does......sucks that guy was such a dick to tell you shit he didn't know about.

kellogg potting soil is also great because it has a neutral PH, but you have to add nutrients yourself that is the only drawback.
