Gonna happen with almost any soil product. Someone was unfairly singling out another manufacturer in a different thread for this too.Watch out for gnats.
Yeah, that was probably me.Gonna happen with almost any soil product. Someone was unfairly singling out another manufacturer in a different thread for this too.
I use Miracle Grow for everything else I grow BESIDES cannabis. Just like many other soils with the nutes preloaded, it should get weed through the veg just fine but you'll need some amendments to the soil or supplements in the water to cross the finish line.
My own personal reason for avoiding Miracle Grow for my weed is really based on a rumor that may not even be true, and that is the buds take on a funky earthy taste. So when I was shopping for dirt at DIY, on a pallet right next to Miracle Grow was a pallet of EB Stone Recipe 420 and I went with it. I've stayed with it because it grows weed great, but I switched to the Bhang formula because it performed even better for the strains I grow.
Just for shits and giggles, I'm thinking I might bury one of my upcoming clones in a 3 gal pot of Miracle Grow and find out for myself, maybe finally put that rumor to rest... or confirm it.
Nobody told me you can’t do both!Yeah, that was probably me.
I have tried it....I have seen many try it and every last one failed....chicken poop for N
Very hot.....but to be honest my experience with it was way back in the 90s. Maybe they changed but I won't try it.

Miracle Grow is ditching it's hydro side of the business. Too much heat for them.Miracle Gro is brought to you by the same company that makes General hydroponics nutes! And used to distribute round up! Till the lawsuits started flying around! L O L! Around six or seven years ago, Monsanto ceased to exist! Bayer snag them all up!

I’ve been using Miracle Grow from the beginning, about three years. I read this post because I was searching for people’s opinions and experiences. My grows have been great but my buds don’t seem to be getting dense and I’m wondering if this is the issue. When plants get to about 3\4 of vegetative stage I can tell that the nutrients are waning and I need fertilizer. I use 5 gallon fabric pots and once plants are in full veg they need 3\4 - 1 gallon of water every day. Yes they are dry every morning. I used self waterIng pots and got fungus gnats due to soil not drying. I then placed shallow trays under pots and started top and bottom feeding. This worked beautifully. Plants are very happy. My belief is that, with the amount of watering I need, by the time they are ready for bloom I have exhausted the fertilizer within the soil. I then start using bloom fertilizer. My last grow I added a small Vivosun VS1000 at angle on the side during bloom and buds did better. Main lights are VS3000 in 4x4 tent. I also used a different bloom. I’m not sure if lights, bloom or fertilizer is what made the difference. The environment is UIS controlled with focus on temp and VPD. I increase VPD to recommended level as plant matures. As always, I am open to any feedback you may have.I heard it's not good 4 growing bud with miracle gro I have so.e potting soil it's got nitrogen high in it is it good 2 use
gnatrol WDG mixed in the water for the first couple waterings takes care of the gnats without deleteriously affecting the quality of the bud in my experience. I know I preach about water only but I do find it necessary to put gnatrol WDG in sometimesWatch out for gnats.
