Hey there,
I started growing some time back and invested plenty of my time into trying to get it perfect however this was all foiled when I went to amsterdam, the lights were cut off and i lost it all except two plants which had been living in darkness for a week.

After saving these; one crashed a week later probally still down to the shock it had been through.

The other one died soon after due to my rents finding out and chucking me out...

Anyways, long story short. I've moved house now and im all fine with them so thats all patched up and im planning a new grow. Except this time im thinking SOIL.

I've looked around into different soils, soil nutrients etc and so far i have decided to use; Canna flora professional mix plus. I'm planning to get 50l of the stuff, do you know how many plants this will support?

What im asking for in this thread is any advice of using soil as im completely new to it


Here are some questions you may be able to answer?

Q: What size pots shud i start in / finish in?
Q: How much longer will it take?
Q: Do i still need to flush it in the last week?
Q: How much / often do i need to water them?
Q: Does anyone know about the Ch9 strain of seeds? (what i've decided to go for again due to liking the looks of it last time).

Sorry for all the questions but i know we all like to help and heres the opportunity So if you've got some spare time and could lend some help then hopefully this will be out there to help any other soil growers aswell

So all facts, advice, figures, opinions are all appreciated.

So now sit back, roll it phatt, get high and tell me how and why.

Any advice at all guys?
Anything that is useful to know whilst using soil instead of hydro?

As for pots I think 2 to 3 gallon pots are good for most plants.

I don't really flush soil plants, I usually just cut off the nutes and just use plain water the last two to three weeks of flower.

As for time, I would say your veg times will increase but flowering will take the same amount of time for the same strain.

I water mine every other day in flower.

Thanks for the reply
How much should i water them? This is all so new to me! :P Thought growing in soil would be more simplistic but really its like starting all over again :P I have to learn all the new figures haha :P

I use 5 gal. pots and Miracle grow with Ocean Forest and have nothing but great resuklts.
I flush every 2 weeks and water every 3 days, 2 with plain water and 1 with nutes and everything else.

Can yu define flushing in the soil world? and how long does it take?
