anybody using miracle grow potting mix (feeds for 6 months)

looking for any suggestions from anyone who uses miracle grow potting soil. ive added more perlite to the mix. and have added peroxide to the water, but was told i used too much (1/4 cup in a 2 liter). how do you do it?!?!?!?!

well miracle grow is all right uses it for a few grow it works but dont over feed ur plants it will get nut burn n kill ur plant

miracle grow nuts are great. but stay away from the potting soil that 'self feeds'. if you over water, you over nute. and when you overnute your supposed to flush right. well the more water you add to the self-feeding mixes, the more nutes that your plants ingest, meaning once you nute burn, youre basically fucked.

i use 'normal' miracle gro and i dont feed for around the first 4 to 5 weeks of veg(usually thats all i need to veg) and my mix is 70%miracle grow, 25% perlite and 5% vermiculite. i only water my plants noremally thru vegging and ive never had nute burn or any other problems

i have used it with a few grows just watch how much water u use when watering to me it seams that the soil runs out of n real fast so keep a eye on that good luck i grew some good white widow with it

I HATE MIRACLE GROW USE FOXFARM! It is a Miracle your plants live!

gotta disagree pap, ive always used it and NEVER had a problem, just dont use nutes when u use it and make sure ur seedlings are strong enuff before u transplant into it.

Cannabis will grow in just about brand of potting soil. Some are made better than others. As the old saying goes "you get what you pay for". That being said. You probably don't want to use that particular mix of potting soil since you most likely won't be vegging for six months. Also when it comes time to flush there is still going to be nutes in the soil due to their time released nature. I would recommend using fox farms ocean forest. You can transplant rooted clones straight into it, it will sustain your plants for up to three weeks with no added nutrients. Most folks only veg for 4-6 weeks. It is tried & true. I'm not knocking miracle grow I use their products outside. I personally don't use peroxide in my growing regiment. It would kill all my bacterial buddies. So can't comment there.

i didnt think about the time release, i been flushn the hell outta them, jus lost one today. i think im only gonna end up wit one by the time this is all over with. but the roots have been getn stronger. thanks for all the info guys, ill definately get fox farm next time. dont think i saw it at walmart, but surely somewhere around here has it. the one biggest one is still lookn pretty tho lol

If you can get some Pro Mix BX, that's what I use, and a hell of a lot of other growers use in Canada. It adjusts the ph for you, during veg I feed only evey second watering with DNF veg, then on 12-12 i use DNF bloom...good luck !

I just tried their 3 month feeding soil it was for roses a friend gave me a clone of some kind of Cheese I veg if for a short time cause I dont have room and only a 250watt system then flowered it for 10 weeks giving it ONLY WATER it's entire grow.

I flushed it a few times cause bad stuff can build up at the bottom but it was 3 weeks before its end that I did the last one and other then a few yellow tips that was the worst burn it ever got.The bud's where fat and sticky and I got an ounce and a half from it after curing it was only a 20" plant as I said before I have no room for anything big.

They also have what they claim is an Organic mixture that feeds for 2 months and I dont see any of the yellow balls you see in the 3 month one.They are the time release things people were talking about I am not saying its a great way to go but i had no problem with it just dont over water it.The 3 month stuff has perlite,petemoss and something else I forget its very airy and stays moist.

I got some Perlite and Vermeculite and was going to add a 15% mixture taking out the same out of soil to the 3 month soil to see it cures that small amount of yellow tips.

Miracle-grow soil it's the lazy man soil no doubt but if you dont know much about feeding PH and all that stuff this is the easy way to do it.

where could i buy fox farm is it available offline

ha no kiddin, i looked for a place arpund here tat sells it, but they said the closest was like 2 hours away. havent found anywhere you can buy it online. thanks for all the tips everybody. i started feeding them too early and lost all but one n a half of them. lol tat one jus don wanna grow at all. other ones lookn pretty tho, still think its growin kinda slow, its 4" tall after a month n a half. but its sssssooooooo cute!!!!

whats the difference between that supersoil and miracle grow. both are time release ?? what if you overwater that supersoil will it burn your plants.
just saying i will take my chances with a known soil company first. i have used ocean forest ,happy frog plain dirt all of them need fertilizers im gonna give
miracle grow a go.

you will be fine .

miracle grow is ok, but compared to the fox farms you grew in you are downgrading. Be careful when you nute because that time release was kinda harsh on my babies! Good luck

ONE PROBLEM with MiracleGro's Potting Mix concerns when the germinated seed first goes into dirt. Twice I discovered that my
new seedling had not popped through the dirt like it should. When I investigated I found a 2-inch long chunk of wood blocking
the seed's path to the light.

I love MG's PM and use it exclusively. BUT, when I put new seedlings into dirt I first sieve through the dirt to pick out any larger
chunks of wood.
