profile of your soil,looking for 25%air/25%water/45%minerals./5%organic material,from this point it can be adjusted,minerals is soil,be it clay,sand ,or silt,ideal soil layering would be minerals as in a high top soil grade,then a layer of course sand, the soil will spread as it is wetting and will spread sideways to the sand structure cant stand it and then it will filter slowly threw the sand to next layer,so that being said could explain why your not watering or feeding as much,ive used dr,earth and had great sucess with 2 grows from same pot,same with all
fox farm lines,feed your soil and it just keeps going,i look at amendments every time i feed,now i know fox has 2 difrent plants that one uses pine and west coast use hardwood,some say there is a difrence,im thinking geographic areas,couldnt that explain why a feller on east coast growing with a west coast brand soil could cause problems?microbes arent from its original area if you dig,i know were i live some these fire ass weed plants yall talk about aint gonna happen in the triple digits 5 months out the year,hahah,but ya this is a wide open debates that will never be explained simple because there aint enough interest in how we get or food or monnies to study what we walk on,lmao kinda like the wild lettuce i grow,it is only legal because no one can tell ya what it is,will send your ass into the 60s no joke you gotta be careful wit it,but take pain away shit does it work,but scientist have studied it from begging of time and cant tell ya what it is,so cant grow weed legal ,ha i can that uncle sam hahahah
