Whats up Ali!
It's definitely getting to be that time of year
I've been planting arugula ,spinach,and lettuce this week:)
Spring is definitely one of my favorite times of the year,there's always so much for the new season
For a flowering mix
I like to mix up
2 parts Roots Organic
2 parts Black Gold
1 part perlite
my well water is a PH of 7.0- 7.1 so I usually add 1 TBS of Dolomite lime per 15 gallons of soil mix
I never PH adjust my water and the slightly acidic Black Gold and Roots are buffered some by the neutral water so my PH stays in range
And Caps bennies and ACT help with that as well........
This mix will require regular feedings after a couple of weeks
It is not gonna be as rich as say Subcools Super Soil,I've tried doing versions of that and I always just burn some of the plants and I still end up needing to feed some anyway..
So I tend to prefer a mix that will let me start to feed as needed after a week or two........
Have a great Spring Ali!
There's nothing better than growing under the sun:)
