Hi everyone. I'll try to make this post short.
When I go to a garden shop to look for soil, fertilizers, and other stuff,
mind you I am preparing to try to grow for the first time, I always get asked for what plants do you need it?
I am in a part of world where the shops do not offer a plethora of items to choose from. In other words there are very few items to choose from, so advices like you should ask for this brand or buy that are not going to help me.
My question is what legal plant is closest to marijuana in terms of choosing soil and fertilizers.
Thank you very much

Weeds: Just like tomatoes.

Get the marijuana growers guide. jorges Servantes It shows step by step in explicit detail. My advice is a hydo eb and flow system with a 400 High pressure sodium. Biotanicare makes a nice product. six plant = aprox 6 tomatoes every 8 weeks. As far as the nutes read the back label. the simplest is Agragrow grow for the first stage then agribloom for the bloom stage. However this is not organic. Bontanicare is bioponic derived from organic compounds. I have a T5 grow light. for the vegitave stage. aprox 6 weeks. Then they go into the bloom room for 8 weeks. Hydro = water the basis of life use the best h20 you can find. I use deionized water with a ph of 5.8 changing every 7 days.

African Violets are similar to Cannabis plants. Although, that may be a dead giveaway too

You don't need to get that technical. Just tell them you want some good organic potting soil fo VARIOUS different plants you want to grow. Go in there like you know what you are doing. If this is your first time growing, I wouldn't go hydro, like iRay is recommending. Get one soil grow under your belt first. You'll learn a ton about growing.

I was afraid this was going to happen.
I have the book. I know enough to grow my own. I did not do it before but i helped some friends with theirs from start to finish.
To recap
my question was
what legal plant is closest to marijuana in regards to fertilizers and soil selection. To know this would really help in keeping a low profile when out shopping.

Tomatoes, like lynchburg said

Tomatoes If you haven't already look for a hydro/grow store in your area. Those are the people you can be stright up honest with and get good advice for any of your questions. Everything you need from lights, soil, nutes they have it and more. These are the stores that see legal card holders all day long so act like ya have a card too and buy the good stuff.

And be sure to bring in a six pack to your local shop...This will pay for all the questions you have that day..."This one goes out to all you retail people"!

I would suggest getting a soil that DOES NOT have time released nuts in it.
