Can any body help me with my first TGA supersoil grow?

I'm growing girl scout cookies and I need a feeding reg for veg n bloom!

well ill assume like most new growers your going with soil, id keep it simple with organics, worm castings, seaweed extract, any high N compost will do for veg(if you starting a compost bin now id try to set it up under a tree, leaves and branches make for excellent nutes once they break down, worms will speed up the process), as for flower focus more on high P and K, i use bat guano, composted fruit(bananas work very well) and bone/blood meals. if your going for the quick and easy route id suggest earth juice(plenty of other companies though), just pH it first(never know how long hydro stores keep them on the shelves sometimes) and go by NPK value, id suggest something like 10-5-10 for veg and the beginning of stretch for flower(first week or so), and for the rest of flower something like 5-10-10(youll still have plenty of N in your medium probably).

What was the question??

I plan on using TGA supersoil hot n cold bags n I wanted a veg n bloom recipe to go with my girl scout cookies!

Maybe Google Subcool and veg recipes organics (I don't really know just suggestion)

When he talks about "base" soil that is what I guess your referring to as "cold". The "hot" soil is the Supersoil mix. Best part is you already have everything you need in those bags without having to mix a huge batch.

I prefer to mix my own. Just how I started. Saves me some change at the end of the day.

The concept is pretty easy if you read that thread. Just follow directions given. Read it. Know it. Don't panic/over think things. K.I.S.S.

Heavy feeder = more supersoil/less base

Light feeder less supersoil/more base

Hope that helps ya bro.


Anything specific after reading it through, just let me know and I should be able to assist.

I think he's using TGA bagged soil

jetboy420 watch a couple weed nerd videos, for any of us to help we need more info on your grow how long you plan to veg, what size pots etc, etc
what do you mean a veg and bloom receipt if using super soil you don't need nutes

I realize he was using them hence why I answered his cold bag hot bag question and I also said best part for him is he doesnt have to mix his up.

However, all the concepts of what to do with the mix and base after the ss is mixed is in that thread. It's pretty much like the owners manual to super soil.


I do agree that subcool/weednerd videos are very helpful and teach you in video form.

Whatever works best for you.

If its realy GSC its a light feeder and I would use a 50/50 ratio after transplant. The base soil is very good also and your clones/seedlings will do fine in it for a few weeks. You want the plants to be big enough so the super soil doesent burn them. You also need a buffer layer of soil so you root ball is not set right on the ss. You fill the bottom of the pot with ss then put some base soil on top and mix the top few inches a little. Then transplant in to the pots and use base soil around your plant. Farmer john 420 has GSC in his garden and talks about its needs in ss.

The only problems Ive had with TGA soil have been my own fault. I vegged under 24 hour light when it needs 18/6 for the soil to work right. Just ended up with a calcum def. no big deal. Also you need to top dress when the plants stop looking happy.

Also by calling the soil hot and cold that tells me you live in NY or around there. The only grow shop Ive seen that sells TGA soil like that is clearsprings hydro.
