soil

so if i get really good soil (foxfarm or something), then do i need nutes too? how much better would the herb be? i'm trying to save money and not having to pay for nutes would be awesome!

You're gonna need nutes regardless. The soil will run out of nutes after a while. And you don't want to be constantly transplanting, either. Pot roots are pretty fragile and you'll break a bunch transplanting. It also shocks the plant pretty good for a few days. I use Foxfarm Ocean Forest and GH nutes. I know the nutes are for hydro, but they're workin' like a champ.

sweet. what do i use at what stages? and do you think i can get them at a local grow shop?

what nutes do you suggest doggy?

My grow shop carries the full line of Fox Farms stuff. I'm using the GH Flora series because it's left over from my previous hydro grows. My next grow I'm going to use the Fox Farms line for soil. These are pics of my grow with Fox Farms Ocean Forest and GH nutes.

those look mighty healthy...

They are, thank you. I'm quite suprised considering they looked like crappy bonus seeds when I first planted them. They had a few rough times when they were smaller, but the longer they go, the healthier better lookin' they get. Those pics were taken at 18 days flowering.

got a journal squishdoggydog?

not on this one. Like I said, they were bonus seeds. I didn't even think any of them would sprout. I didn't do much planning with them, just kinda threw some stuff together and they kept growing, so I kept working with them. Only 5 out of 10 made it past sprout, and two were males when I started flowering, but these three girls are impressing me. The one in the back right is sativa, probably 100% sativa. The other two look like good cross strains. They are all lookin' to make some good weed. My next grow is the seeds I ordered, New York Diesel. I'm gonna have a grow journal for those.

sounds good, have u shipped seeds before, what company... I am curious, my next growth will be genetic for sure.

I've used nirvana and amsterdam marijuana seeds. AMS gets them to you faster depending on when during the week you order. Nirvana hides the seeds WAY better, though.

sweet thnx for the advice, i am gonna check the site tonight and dream up some combos for next crop.
