    umm wow guy regular mg moisture control doesnt have a problem for mj plants but when you start adding mg perlite (which is soaked in their ferts) and the mg peat moss which is soaked in their ferts well your making a soil which is almost too hot to start with and taking it to definately too hot. Go buy some regular perlite and some normal peat moss if you want to mix that with your soil. Then if you really need to save money you can use the water soluable MG fert. its 15- 30 -15 i have used it in a pinch for veg and flower with pretty good results just make sure you flush very well before harvest. If you can afford it try and go get some better nuts than MG to use. I would steer clear of the MG perlite and MG moss. The soil is fine

    I agree with the guy above. Also I don't germinate in soil I use peat cubes or jiffy seed starting mix. When you germinate you don't want any nutes. Also perlite and peat moss are really cheap from any garden store. I started with Miracle Grow Organic Potting mix soil and had ok results but had gnat problems now I use ProMix which has never given me a problem. But I have heard of plenty of people using MG moisture controll with good results.

    MG is fuckin awesome you just have to be very careful what bags of it you buy nothing that has been in the weather or it could have bugs if you know how to pick your soil its no big deal. But NEVER EVER EVER use MG perlite and stuff like that because its presoaked in their nutrients and if you add it to a soil that is already border line hot (some people say it burns, i've never had a problem but maybe with a very sensitive plant it could) and start adding more nutrients like that right off the bat it will exacerbate any problems you may have with it.

    DONT USE MG PERLITE how many times do we have to say it DONT USE MG VERMICULITE the only MG you should ever use is there moisture control or organic potting soil mixes. With the FF add a 60/40 mix of FF and perlite get perlite from home depot they have MASSIVE bags of the stuff for like ten bucks and its not conditioned with nutrients already.
