dude if you're doing soil, you need to make sure that you mix the soil (yes, the happy frog) at a 1/3 ratio of perlite.. yes.. 1/3 of the end result should be perlite mixed into it... then, take a soilles mix you can make on your own (like, say.. perlite + peat moss + vermiculite) if you dont have either peat moss or vermiculite, mix 1/2 ratios of perlite with whichever one u have and then take this 2nd mix we've discussed and add that as the top 4-5 inches of the bucket, this will allow the young, tender plant to have a root system and be fuckin happy n shit before it starts digging it's roots into those nutrients that await it in the first mix we made that lie 4-5 inches underneath the first mix... get it?
