the title says it all. i had no cash to buy new soil, so mixed some old living soil, with some new. smokin tomatoes brand out of michigan. two of my plants have nute wilt, claw leafs, on two branches of the mainline. wierd both p!ants are affected the same. it is only happening on couple stalks, of 8. how do i remedy this?
The brand is called smokin' tomatoes. It is an offshoot of a company called dairy doo. The soil is a composted mostly from cow, but they throw in some other stuff. I used the veg last season on some way sativa leaning lemon skunk. They died before they got to flower. U.p. life. I didn't have enough new veg to use, and broke as always, so mixed half and half old used stuff, and new stuff. I am repotting soon so problem should get solved then I hope. Did not use nutes last season.
its not pm, its mud. they fell over in the last rain
I don't see any perlite in it. I've never tried to grow in a heavy/dense/rich soil like that. But, every indication I've had is that cannabis likes perlite. Lots of perlite. Can't use too much perlite.The brand is called smokin' tomatoes. It is an offshoot of a company called dairy doo. The soil is a composted mostly from cow, but they throw in some other stuff.

that is wood ash i put on top to try and sway the ph. there is perlite in the soilI don't see any perlite in it. I've never tried to grow in a heavy/dense/rich soil like that. But, every indication I've had is that cannabis likes perlite. Lots of perlite. Can't use too much perlite.
If I were going to roll the dice on a soil on my last $8 buying soil, I'd try Kellogg Cactus & Palm potting mix. There was a bag open at Lowes one day. I thought that looked like a perfect soil for cannabis (sandy, well draining; not fine and dense/rich). I've been wanting to add it to my 3-product light/airy mix. But, it would be worth trying by itself. I think it would work better than the rich/heavy soils. (I'd still add 20% perlite to it. But, I'd probably add 60-70% to your soil. So, I think the cactus soil is more in the right direction that way.).
i use the veg, for veg growing, and repot to bloom soil. why are these products silly?that is wood ash i put on top to try and sway the ph. there is perlite in the soil

Did you follow the directions for the 3 different stages with different soil.
Lol. They have 4 soils needed to avoid the one bottle of nutes i use.
Legal weed products are getting more and more silly.
new veg soil mixed with salty old used veg soil. no nutes used. not using nutes for them. just water and a just recently put some hard wood ash on top to see if would help furn the ph. am researching epsom salts right nowIt says you don’t need to add nutrients so are you adding them now? Since your using old soil? Or is this soil already hot
Maybe invest in some nutrients instead of all these potting soils it kinda seems like a gimmick in my opinion I wish you the best of luck as I’m not experienced with outdoor plantsnew veg soil mixed with salty old used veg soil. no nutes used. not using nutes for them. just water and a just recently put some hard wood ash on top to see if would help furn the ph. am researching epsom salts right now

Mother nature. Long sativa leaning lemon skunks couldn't flower. Cold came too soonWhat killed your plants last year, before they got to flower in the old dirt?
Thanks, also, with wood ash, while it is great at adding K, it also moves the PH up, perhaps too quickly or out of range.Mother nature. Long sativa leaning lemon skunks couldn't flower. Cold came too soon
Are you saying living soils are stupid? Do you know how many companies are making this type of product? Why are they not simple. They use cow, worm , and chicken. Sounds pretty simple to me. We have one in Detroit a lot of ppl are using. Maybe this should be a thread. Living soils do you use them? Yes or no. Tell us why. You still need to tell me why.I forgot about this fiasco.
Because they have 3 different soils and a topdress compost. Not simple soil at all and not neccessary at all. And different plants will still need different strength feed so it will burn or keep plants deficient like every other store bought supersoil. but you get to buy 4 bags.
And a bottle of nutes would be easier and more reliable.
All to sell nutes to noobs with the common fear of fertilizing plants properly. Which os still needed to learn.
I had hoped that education would come along with “legal” weed. Instead more companies are ripping off more growers with no knowledge than even in the hey day of advanced nutes.
