has anyone used whitney farms uncle malcoms blend or just their regular organic potting soil? how about gardner and bloom or cedar grove? They are all supposed to be bomb ass soils - any good mixes with this stuff? what do you guys recommend? until nex time ....keep it :smiley_joint:

thanks true grit would u mind posting raskals feeding schedule I couldnt find it :smiley_joint:

:smiley_joint:

so anyone got some good mixes?

thanks for all your input guys - yeah the ff schedule from their site is pure bullshit - i will switch to something easier in the future- IVE BEEN HEARING GREAT THINGS ABOUT H&G LATELY- but in the mean time i have the whole line of fox farm's nutes i gotta use up now that i have them :o/ - oh...

I don't see why not - but IMHO if you already got it- it might be better just to setup a lil drip system with just the hydroton or make a dwc bucket- both r cheap n simpler n cleaner alternatives- if you're stuck on using soil it might be better just to pick up some pumice, expanded clay pellets...

i also give them a cpl inches of soil and then bury the stems up to the first leaves - :anim_19:

jdubz thanks for the input what soils have you compared it to? Have you put it up against the power flower like the rock said or roots organic?- i agree its a good soil but idk why but I feel as though it needs improvements and for the price of 2 bags of that or a whole bale of sunshine mix 4...

so you can get multiple tops instead of just one - the advantage is more yield and more colas which in turn will make u :sun2:

despite wanting to go hydro or the coco route and have a lil more control I like to run various strains so giving them all the same food doesnt really work 4me -even though something like dwc is very tempting and may be easier to control - I know the best tasting stuff comes from a living...

yea man its way too heavy ur gonna need perlite - and regardless of what they say about it being ph buffered thats only good for about 2 months so u gotta add a tspn of lime per gallon when ur going into flowering or ur soil's ph will drop so low it wont even change the color of ur test strips...

thanks 4 responding - ive heard of this mix and of the super soil mix also but I need something i can feed with my full line of ff nutes now that i have them :stonedsmilie:

:anim_19: damn what a bad one - i was told to flush with 3x water and the last gallon to run a half strength feed---------so the proper way is just to flush with straight water? - what do I follow this up with once it dries? Another watering or a half strength feed? :wait Im confused Wont it...

I wanna switch soils or go soilless b/c i dont see the pt in paying $20 + tax 4 a bag of ocean forest n then having to ammend it with lime and perlite etc- ive searched and searched and read and read for weeks on end but cant find anything suitable 4 the girls and I - all the organic recipes...

thanks man I really appreciate ur help -- does everyone else agree with digdug that I should flush ONCE AGAIN?- i was told if you flush/leech cuz of burns or lockout you give a half strength feeding in ur last gallon that goes thru so that you at least leave ur girls with some food so they dont...
