This is gonna be cool! I don't knock MG, I just prefer organic for my buds (seems to bring out more terpenes).
I use MG soil (Naure's Care Organics) and nutes (MG Tomato Food) for my mothers & fathers. They are in small pots and don't have the soil mass for an ecosystem. 1/2 teaspoon per gallon for all watering and they do just fine.

MG Miracid can also be used to adjust alkaline water PH in a pinch.

Good luck!! :happy:

Their big corps are really bad on the environment. Whole article in Hightimes about it. It sucks, Scotts also bought up General Hydroponics, which is what Ive come to use.

Saw someone use MG last year for 4 plants outdoor. Wasn't good but made extracts lol. I will be subbed, then point this thread out to the Hydro ass in my town that tries to make everyone buy 9 bottles to complete a harvest.

Also this is not a thread for you to come ripping on MG this is for informational purposes and to prove it can be done and not burn or kill the plant!

Yo @Juicebox Im glad I'm here to witness this. Your out to prove ME wrong. lol. I know I used too much MG nutes my first grow around. And that's just basic knowledge I picked up from reading thcfarmer posts and replies. I do have a considerable amount of AP MG that I said I wouldn't use ever again. If your successful, I'll be the first to eat those words. GL juicebox

Guaranteed success....thru the late 80s and early 90s we cash cropped in B.C. And all we used was good old MG

I hope you get a good yield juicebox. I only harvested a little over an ounce per plant(dried and cured). The plants were only 1'-2' tall and had a wide variety of problems. I still have two more batches that are in the process of drying and curing. But here are the results of my first two from bag seed ("mystery strains"):

I would say it will never work but I have plants in mid flower that have been watered with zero runoff their whole life in a coco SoG and they are some of the healthiest looking plants Ive had so far, so Im optomistic...
