Forget the Happy Frog. Add more perlite to the Pro Mix. Use Megacrop fertilizer. Or AN Iguana. One bottle = less screwups. Go with bags instead of buckets every time.I'm older guy with two Sons wanting to grow. Interesting I start Sons are coming over with suggestions. I'm thinking they are growing. Come to find out they are letting Dad mess up then they will learn from his mistakes.
First mistake I thought I would just use Garden soil. Found it has too much Clay and holds water, so starting out watering too much. Changed to Pro Mix but have Happy Frog Soil coming and have Worm Casting. One Son came over with Fox Farm Fertilizer kit said try this. I also learned not to have my wife involved in the Girls. I sprouted the seed, made small indentation in the soil, told my wife to put the seeds in and cover them. Some dried out because she left them on top worried about getting them too deep.
Starting out with White Widow but thinking more going to Black Widow. Like I told my wife it says it is fairly easy to grow which is up my alley easy. Doing mostly Edibles because I already have Throat problems.
While I'm thinking. I was going to just use 5 Gallon Buckets. Open for other ideas?

waay better for roots, easy access to oxygen, they are able to air prune and continue growing more and generally never will strangle the other roots like say in a bucket the roots just go around and around which could led to a host of issues!!Hey, to comments made earlier in the thread... why do some people prefer fabric pots over plastic pots?
Can you put clones in fabric pots ? ......waay better for roots, easy access to oxygen, they are able to air prune and continue growing more and generally never will strangle the other roots like say in a bucket the roots just go around and around which could led to a host of issues!!

I'm gonna chase you all over the forums
The plants air trim the roots and the cloth allows the soil to dry quicker. I like handles on the sides for moving them.Hey, to comments made earlier in the thread... why do some people prefer fabric pots over plastic pots?
