Greetings Farmers and Cultivators!
This may be a dumb question but I have not been able to find anything about this on the forum so I thought I would put it out there and see if anyone has experience preparing soil for planting.
I recently bought 3 bags of Roots Organics Lush soil that I plan on using for my spring outdoor grow, but I am also using it for an indoor grow that is just starting. The soil came with a hole in the bag and I noticed that it's very, very dry...dusty even. I have some seedlings in this soil right now and a couple of them are not doing well and I wonder if it has anything to do with it. The soil is what I think they call hydrophobic and not accepting the water very well.
Too late to do anything with the seedlings, but for future reference, should I be conditioning/preparing the soil prior to using it? If so, how?
Thank you!
